ChatGPT's AI “memory” can remember the preferences of paying customers

OpenAI introduced a Memory feature for ChatGPT, enabling the AI to retain user preferences and customizations. Initially tested with a limited audience, it is now accessible to ChatGPT Plus subscribers outside Europe and Korea. This enhancement helps ChatGPT deliver more personalized interactions by remembering specific user details and learning from past conversations.

Despite the benefits, some concerns about privacy persist, as noted by The Verge’s David Pierce. However, OpenAI assures users of control over the AI's memory, allowing them to review and delete stored information. The feature aims to make ChatGPT a more effective assistant, remembering user preferences across sessions and applying them in future interactions.
