Organize conversations in threads
On the AI Assistant page (#/ai-assistant):
Thread list (left): A sidebar listing your conversation threads. Each thread is a separate conversation. You can create a new thread (e.g. "New chat") and switch between threads by clicking one. So you keep different topics or tasks in separate threads.
Thread (main area): The selected thread's chat: messages from you and the assistant in order. At the bottom, a input field (and send button) to type your question or request. Send a message; the assistant replies (streaming or full response depending on configuration). You can scroll back through the conversation and send follow-up messages.
Layout: Typically a two-column layout: thread list (e.g. 240px) and chat thread (flex). On small screens the layout may adapt (e.g. thread list collapsible or stacked).
Organize conversations in threads and chat in one place. No separate tab or app.

In practice
AI Assistant — thread list, chat thread, layout. On this page, Organize conversations in threads is covered in detail: what it looks like in the admin, the exact controls it exposes, and how it behaves when you use it day to day. Because organize conversations in threads is part of AI Assistant — drafting posts, suggesting titles and replies, and answering questions about your site without leaving wp-admin — the settings you touch here interact with the rest of the feature; when in doubt, open the feature overview and follow the docs in order.
Where the assistant helps most
The assistant shines on bounded, well-described tasks — drafting a post from an outline, suggesting replies to a comment thread, or producing a theme tweak as an artifact you can preview and accept. Broad prompts ("improve my site") still work, but scoped prompts return results you can apply directly instead of editing a generic draft.
Everything the assistant generates stays a draft until you approve it, so experimenting is safe.
