ChatGPT Adds PDF Download Option for Deep Research Reports
In a welcome update for users, OpenAI has introduced a PDF download feature for Deep Research reports in ChatGPT, making it easier to save and share long-form AI-generated research without losing formatting.
The feature is designed to address a persistent user complaint: that copying and pasting the research into other applications often distorted its layout. With the new functionality, users can now export reports as PDFs directly from the platform, ensuring that formatting and structure remain intact.
What is Deep Research?
Deep Research is a tool within ChatGPT that allows users to conduct multi-step investigations on complex topics. It works by scouring hundreds of sources on the internet and summarizing the information in a detailed report within minutes—work that might take a human several hours to compile manually.
Until now, the only way to extract the report was to copy and paste the text, which disrupted formatting. The new download option changes that, offering a polished, professional-looking document for offline reading, printing, or sharing.
How to Download Deep Research Reports as PDFs
The update was first noticed by a user on X (formerly Twitter), and is now fully available on the web version of ChatGPT. After generating a Deep Research report, users can simply:
• Click the share icon in the upper right corner of the report,
• Select 'Download as PDF' from the dropdown menu,
• Save the file to their device.
This added convenience is now accessible to all ChatGPT users, regardless of their subscription tier—including Free, Plus, Team, Pro, Enterprise, and Edu plans. OpenAI confirmed the feature's rollout on May 17.
Alongside the PDF feature, OpenAI also introduced a GitHub connector for Deep Research, allowing developers to integrate research tasks directly with GitHub projects, further expanding the tool's utility.
Meanwhile, an AI Controversy at Northeastern University
In separate news, a Northeastern University professor is facing criticism for relying on ChatGPT and other AI tools to prepare classroom materials, while discouraging students from doing the same.
Ella Stapleton, a business student, spotted strange images and errors in class notes, some directly referencing ChatGPT. She filed a complaint and requested a tuition refund, which the university denied.
Professor Rick Arrowood admitted using ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gamma, but added, 'In hindsight, I wish I would have looked at it more closely.' He acknowledged he should have reviewed the AI-generated content more thoroughly.

Samsung's big bet: Perplexity AI could soon be everywhere on its devices
Samsung Electronics is close to finalising a significant partnership with Perplexity AI Inc, an artificial intelligence (AI) search technology startup, Bloomberg reported. The South Korean tech giant is negotiating to preload Perplexity's app and assistant onto its upcoming devices. Additionally, Samsung aims to integrate Perplexity's search features into its web browser. Talks have also covered incorporating the startup's technology into Samsung's Bixby virtual assistant, the report said. Samsung plans to unveil the Perplexity integrations as early as this year, with the goal of making it a default assistant option on the Galaxy S26, expected to launch in the first half of 2026. However, the specifics of the deal are still being finalised and may change, the sources noted. So far, the company has relied significantly on Google's Gemini to support a range of AI capabilities within its Galaxy AI suite. Significant investment in Perplexity In addition to the technology partnership, Samsung is expected to participate in Perplexity's upcoming funding round, potentially as one of its largest investors. Perplexity is currently in advanced discussions to raise $500 million at a valuation of $14 billion, the news report said. The collaboration could help Samsung lessen its reliance on Alphabet Inc's Google and position it to work with a broader range of AI developers — a strategy similar to Apple Inc.'s approach to its ecosystem. For Perplexity, this would represent its most substantial mobile partnership to date, following a recent deal with Motorola. The two companies began exploring a partnership earlier this year. In recent weeks, representatives from both sides met in South Korea and made significant progress toward finalising the agreement, the report said. In addition to embedding Perplexity's technology into Samsung's devices and Bixby, the companies have also discussed developing an AI-infused operating system and an app that can connect Perplexity's capabilities with other AI assistants. Apple's interest in Perplexity Meanwhile, Apple has also shown interest in collaborating with Perplexity. According to Bloomberg News, Apple has considered using Perplexity as an alternative to Google Search and as a replacement for ChatGPT within the Siri voice assistant. 'We've been pretty impressed with what Perplexity has done, so we've started some discussions with them about what they're doing,' Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice-president of services, said during recent testimony at a Google antitrust trial.

"Both the US and India share good relations and we will continue to work together to resolve issues," Piyush Goyal said.

"Both countries are committed to work together, both countries desire to give preferential access to each other's businesses and we are working towards the bilateral trade agreement," Goyal told reporters in Paris according to a PTI report. Regarding Trump's announcement to increase tariffs on steel and aluminium to 50 per cent, Goyal indicated that both nations would continue their bilateral efforts to address these matters. "Let us wait and watch ...both the US and India share good relations and we will continue to work together to resolve all these issues bilaterally," he said.

He engaged in discussions with his American counterpart regarding the proposed agreement. Goyal also visited Washington to accelerate the trade negotiations. In February, US President Donald Trump and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi unveiled plans to negotiate the initial phase of a mutually advantageous, multi-sector Bilateral Trade Agreement by fall (September-October) of 2025. The agreement seeks to increase bilateral trade to $500 billion by 2030, up from the present $191 billion.

Even Elon Musk is concerned According to trade experts, the Trump administration's additional import duty increase would affect Indian exporters, particularly those involved in value-added and finished steel products and automotive components. On May 30, Trump declared a doubling of current 25% duties on steel and aluminium imports effective June 4. The initial implementation of this provision by Trump in 2018 established 25% duty on steel and 10% on aluminium. The aluminium tariffs were increased to 25% in February 2025. During 2024-25, Indian exports of iron, steel, and aluminium products to the US totalled $4.56 billion, comprising $587.5 million in iron and steel, $3.1 billion in iron or steel articles, and $860 million in aluminium and related items. India has submitted an official notification to the World Trade Organization (WTO), maintaining its position to implement countervailing duties on US products in response to previous steel tariffs. The United States maintained its position as India's main trading partner for the fourth successive year in 2024-25, with two-way trade reaching $131.84 billion. The US contributes approximately 18 per cent of India's total goods exports, 6.22 per cent of imports, and 10.73 per cent of the nation's overall merchandise trade.
