OpenAI Deal Fallout: Users Flock to Claude
11 Mar
Summary
- Users are migrating from ChatGPT to Claude due to OpenAI's Pentagon deal.
- OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman admitted the Pentagon deal was rushed.
- Users can export ChatGPT data and import memories to Claude.

Following OpenAI's controversial Pentagon deal, a notable number of users have begun migrating to the AI chatbot Claude. This shift occurred after the deal prompted internal resignations and public scrutiny, leading CEO Sam Altman to admit the agreement was rushed and subsequently revise it.
Users considering leaving ChatGPT are advised to first export their data and memories. Claude offers a feature to import these memories, though the process requires manual steps within both platforms. This includes copying specific prompts from Claude into ChatGPT to reveal stored conversational memories.
Furthermore, users can request a full export of their ChatGPT data, which OpenAI will provide via a downloadable link after a processing period of a few days. This link is time-sensitive, expiring 24 hours after receipt. Users also have the option to delete their entire chat history before closing their accounts, though complete deletion by OpenAI can take up to 30 days.
