BCFO already said in his post that he has the new cabin on the seat selection page.

But if you really want to feel better, like the others said, you can look up the flight registration number on sites like flightradar.
But
BCFO is talking about a flight in about 2 weeks from now. There is no way to know in advance which plane will fly a given flight in 2 weeks.

That’s indeed the only thing to do.

I appreciate any information you can give me.
As said above, the only way to know is to look on your day of departure which plane will fly CDG-ORD. To make you feel better, ORD is consistently served with the new cabin, unless you have a last min substitution due to a mechanical problem.
