Here’s How ChatGPT’s New ‘Memory’ Feature Recalls Details About You
As a ChatGPT user, you should know that every conversation is new because the chatbot cannot retain the details you want it to follow or the style you want it to remember, which ends up wasting your time repeating information in new conversations.
However, this is all about to change as OpenAI has announced that it will test ChatGPT’s ability to remember things. “We’re testing memory with ChatGPT. Remembering what you’ve discussed in all chats saves you having to repeat information and makes future conversations more useful,” the Microsoft-backed AI giant said.
It added that users can “specifically tell it to remember something” and even ask it what it remembers. Also, if you don’t want it to remember anything, you can simply tell it to “forget during chat or through settings” or turn it off completely.
Simply put, you can make ChatGPT remember things like information about you or your family, like if you like a certain animal. For example, if you own a company and want it to remember, or even some note formatting options.
When will it be available?
OpenAI says it will roll out the feature to a “small number” of ChatGPT free and Plus users starting this week. It’s not clear when the company will open up a wider rollout where all users will have access to it.
