How ChatGPT’s New Memory Feature Enhances AI Personalisation and User Experience

OpenAI has introduced a groundbreaking update to ChatGPT—its new memory feature, designed to deliver more personalised and intelligent conversations. This enhancement allows the AI to remember key information between chats, helping it tailor responses based on your preferences, past conversations, and ongoing tasks.

What is the ChatGPT Memory Feature?

The memory feature enables ChatGPT to recall details such as your name, favourite topics, work projects, and more across multiple sessions. This allows for a more contextual and helpful interaction—one that grows smarter the more you use it.

Whether you’re using ChatGPT for work, learning, or creativity, memory can make interactions feel more fluid and customised.

Main Features:

  • Persistent Memory:
    ChatGPT now retains user information over time, making each session more relevant and efficient.
  • Personalised Responses:
    The AI can offer tailored suggestions and remember user-specific preferences, helping you get things done faster.
  • User Control:
    Full transparency and control are key. You can:
    • View what ChatGPT remembers
    • Edit or delete specific entries
    • Disable memory entirely
    • Use “Temporary Chat” mode to ensure nothing is remembered

Availability

The memory feature is being rolled out gradually to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users, with expansion planned for Team, Enterprise, and Education accounts. However, it’s currently not available in the UK, EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, or Switzerland due to regulatory requirements.

Privacy and Data Control

OpenAI puts privacy front and centre. Users can manage memory settings anytime in the ChatGPT interface. If you prefer, you can wipe all memories with a single click, ensuring full control over your data and how it’s used.

In Sum…

ChatGPT’s memory update marks a big leap towards more intelligent and personal AI experiences. Whether you’re using it daily for business, learning, or personal tasks, the memory feature brings a new level of continuity and convenience—while still giving you the final say in what’s remembered.
