Personalize ChatGPT Without Saving Chats
27 Jan
Summary
- ChatGPT tests a temporary chat feature with personalization.
- Users can customize ChatGPT without saving conversation history.
- Optional setting retains preferences, but chats remain temporary.

OpenAI is piloting an update to its 'Temporary Chat' feature, offering a more personalized yet private chat experience. This new, optional setting allows ChatGPT to remember user preferences like style and tone, even when conversations are not saved. Previously, temporary chats functioned as a 'blank slate,' unaware of past interactions or user memories. The undisclosed setting, discovered by AI engineer Tibor Blaho, enables personalization without affecting the overall account history. While this feature is currently optional and not available to all users, OpenAI states that chat copies might still be retained for up to 30 days due to security protocols.
