EP 259: ChatGPT's New Memory Feature - the good and the bad

This is the Everyday AI show, the everyday podcast where we simplify AI and bring its power to your fingertips. Listen daily for practical advice to boost your career, business and everyday life.

One common thing that people complain about Chat GPT and other large language models is they say it forgets things. They say, oh, this, this model doesn't have a good memory. It gets confused. Well, There's a new ChatGPT feature that might help this. It's called Memory, but I think it's maybe a little more marketing than actual function. So we're going to be talking about that today and more on Everyday AI. What's going on, y'? All? My name is Jordan Wilson and I'm the host of Everyday AI. We do this every single day. It's a live stream, podcast and free daily newsletter helping people like you and me just learn and leverage generative AI. So there's always new models, new new new tools, new features. So we're going to be talking about that today and see if we can help you get a little bit more out of Chat GBT in this instance to grow your company and to grow your career. So if you're new here, please go to your everydayai.com sign up for that free daily newsletter. Maybe you can't make the the live stream every day. Check us out on the podcast. Maybe you're on the podcast and you want to come hang out at the live stream and ask questions. You can do that, too. So always make sure to check the show notes in the podcast for links to do that. So before we get into this new feature from ChatGPT and, you know, we're going to go over some of the pros and the cons. So, you know, I'm going to tell you right now, I'm not going to be using this a whole lot, or at least not relying on it, because it's actually going to be enabled by default once you do enable it. But we're going to get to that in a couple of minutes. But before we get to that, we're going to start as we always do. Well, not as we always do with the AI news. Actually, a quick reminder. Oh, no, let's just go into the AI news. All right, so there was an athletic director in Baltimore was arrested for using AI to fake an audio recording. So a Baltimore high school athletic director was arrested for allegedly using AI to fake an audio recording of the school's principal, leading to his temporary removal. So the audio clip contained racist comments against black and Jewish individuals, causing significant repercussions within the school community. There was a three month probe by local police and the FBI concluded that the audio was forged by using AI tools by this high school athletic director. So apparently what happened is the principal had initiated an investigation into the athletic director for potentially mishandling school funds leading, leading to this retaliatory fake audio creation. You know, kind of a, kind of a wild story, but I actually think this is going to become pretty commonplace with how good, you know, deep fake audio is and how easy it is now to, to replicate someone's voice. All right, next piece of AI news. US and China are holding their first high level talks on artificial intelligence. So the US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken announced that the US and China will engage in their first intergovernmental dialogue on artificial intelligence in coming weeks. So the talks aim to address the risks and safety concerns associated with advanced AI technologies. And despite the discussions, no update was provided on the future of Chinese social media giant Tick Tock during the recent talks in Beijing. Yeah, that's, that's going to be obviously a hot topic here in the next couple of weeks. And the agreement also includes efforts to stabilize and develop U. S China relations, expand cultural exchanges and consult on international and regional issues. Yeah, I think the, the conversation on artificial intellig is going to be an important one for the two different heads of state to have. You know, I'd say right now, you know, the US is in first, second and third place when it comes to artificial intelligence and generative AI development. But I'd say China is probably right, right there after. Right. It isn't really a race so far, I would say, but China is, I would say, top three world power when it does come to artificial intelligence, specifically when it comes to large language models. Speaking of large language models, last but not least, Elon Musk's X AI startup is nearing $6 billion in a new fundraising round. So Xai Corporation, which is Elon Musk AI startup, is on the verge of closing a 6 billion dollar fundraising round. According to reports, the fundraising would value the company at $18 billion, showcasing significant investor interest in the AI technology. So Sequoia Capital, big name there among other investors, are set to participate in this funding round. So this move positions XAI to compete with, you know, more established players like OpenAI, Google, Gemini, Anthropics, Claude in the AI market. So we'll see how this shakes out. I, I've said this, you know, I had a, you know, my show, kind of my prediction show in Jan, in December for 2024 and I said, you know, hey, there's gonna be a lot of noise around XAI and Grok, which is the XAI Chatbot platform. I'm like, you know, probably you shouldn't pay attention to it. I, I still think that that's just my personal opinion. I don't see a lot of utility in this specific large language model, considering a lot of it is trained off of Twitter data, which is not the best data. All right, there's going to be more on those stories and a lot, a lot other things that we dive into in the newsletter. So if you haven't already signed up, make sure you go do that. And hey, did you, did you not see this yesterday? I know we had a long, you know, super long podcast for our one year anniversary and, you know, maybe the newsletter went out a little late, but hey, if, you know, like two friends right now, I think the leader in our giveaway that we just launched was two. So we are giving away Meta's AI powered Ray Ban smart glasses. And our giveaway ends Monday. So all you have to do is refer one friend to, to be entered. But the person who gets the most referrals is going to get their pick from our prize pool, which does include the Meta, you know, Ray Ban glasses. So if you've looked at those and you're like, oh, those are cool. And we talked about on the news here the other day, now they have multimodal input and output. So sorry, multimodal input, which is really, really cool. Hey, if you know three people, you're going to be in the lead. So make sure if to check our newsletter, if you haven't already, you're going to get a unique referral code and you can go in and hey, if you refer three friends as of like yesterday, you be in the lead. All right, so let's get into this new chat GPT feature. And good morning from everyone joining this live. Dr. Harvey Castro said, hey, he just got the memory feature today. You need to test it out. All right, well, hey, thanks, thanks for letting me know, Harvey, because that's what we're going to be doing today. We're not going to be testing it live per se, but we're going to be going over what you need to know. A Michael, Michael from YouTube said that he just referred someone hoping he wins. Well, hey, Michael, if you know one or two more people, you'll probably be in the lead. So. All right, so let's talk about this new memory feature from ChatGPT. So I'm going to tell you what it is what it isn't, how it works and suggest to you if you should use it. So here's how you will know if you have the feature. I wish there was a better way, but essentially you just get a pop up. So you know, if this does sound like something that you're going to be taking advantage of, or if you're a pretty regular Chat GPT user, make sure to look for that pop up. Also worth noting, if you use ChatGPT on different devices, which is like what I do, you only see the pop up once. Don't worry, I'm going to share it here. But this kind of just gives you a good overview of what this feature is. So it does a couple of things. So I'm going to read kind of the, the marketing speak here, but don't worry, we're not just going to tell you what it is, we're gonna dive into it. So Chat GPT says that it now has memory access across chats. That's the important thing here, right before you know, whenever you would start a new chat inside of chat, GPT or any large language model, one of the biggest things is it doesn't remember anything. So let's say that you're, you know, creating a chat in any model and you know you're, you're, you're getting some good outputs. Well, what happens then? If you go into any other chat, it doesn't know anything that was going on in that chat, right? So let's say you're telling it about your company, you're working on a research project, etc, and then if you start a new chat that's kind of related to that and if you wanted to recall some of that information, you can't. So that has been one of a pretty common downside of large language models is they think of it as siloed information. So you know when you're clicking new chat or if you go find an old chat and pick up the conversation, all of that information is siloed, which is obviously a huge downside. So this new feature from OpenAI inside ChatGPT looks to change that. So essentially it says you can keep the conversation going. It says Chat GPT will carry what it learns between chats, allowing it to provide more relevant responses. It says it becomes more helpful over time. So it says ChatGPT will become more helpful as you chat, continually remembering details and preferences and then says manage what it remembers. It says you're in control, review and delete specific memories, restart from scratch or turn off the feature in Settings. All right, so yeah, I'm curious for, for the rest of you joining live, if you have this feature yet or if what questions that you have about it. All right, so we're going to get into kind of the details of how it works. We're going to give you a guide. But if you do have questions for our live stream audience, make sure you get them in now. But if you're listening on the podcast, we always leave a link back to this kind of LinkedIn thread. So if you are maybe driving or walking your dog and I say something, you're like, wait, that doesn't make sense. You can always come back and ask me and I'll, I'll answer. All right, so here's what you need to do. Well, number one, you need to enable it in the settings. All right, so this is actually in a different spot than when they first previewed it. And this is also kind of important to, to talk about. So this is one of the first features that OpenAI has posted publicly about before they did a general rollout. So they actually posted about this two months ago and a lot of people forgot about it. You know, OpenAI put out some information, I think on their, on their Twitter account, on the blog, on their blog post. And this was two months ago. So normally when OpenAI posts about something, they kind of just release it within a day or two or it has already been a release and it's just a gradual rollout. So if you do have a paid chat GPT account, I do believe it is only for paid users. They were testing it with free and paid. So if you do have a free account and you go in, and if you see this memory feature, let me know. But I do believe it is only rolling out to paid users. So. So like I said, when you log in maybe today or tomorrow, the next time you go in there, you're gonna get this pop up and then you can go into settings. So previously this was its own dedicated kind of side panel, so you didn't even need to go into Settings first. So they didn't move it. So you need, you need to go into your regular settings and there will be a personalization tab. Okay. And you'll see you can still have custom instructions going. So we're gonna go over kind of the differences and the pros and the cons of working with each or working with one or the other. But then you'll see there's a simple memory toggle. So if you do maybe miss it on that pop up on that pop up and you don't enable it or if you're starting to use it and later you're like, wait, this stinks. Don't worry, you can always toggle it off. All right, so that's step one. You need to enable it in the settings. So here's what it's going to look like in action. All right, so I just did an example. I just started playing with this yesterday. We obviously had our big, you know, one year anniversary show yesterday, so I've been a little busy. You know, we had a show of will AI take your jobs? It was our longest show ever. So make sure you go check that out if you haven't already. But so when you go into Chat GPT and you enter something, essentially you're going to get this new little prompt and it says memory updated. So in this example, I didn't have anything in, you know, kind of the memory bank, so to speak. So, you know, think of it like this. You bank memories. So if we literally think of the, the silo, you know, the silo analogy that normally they work in silos. So think of it like this. You're going to have a base that's below all of your silos, so it doesn't matter. And this memory bank is that base. So it is going to selectively pull things out of your chats and then you can go in and manage those memories as well. But this is essentially kind of like what it looks like for our live stream audience is it just committed these things to memory. So I just said in a new chat, I said, my name is Jordan, I like deep dish pizza, I'm from Chicago. And I said, people call me a robot sometimes. So right after I entered that, a new pop up came. So I'm glad that Chat GPT did this piece because when this first came out, I did a little video review on it, at least on the blog post, because they shared screenshots, they shared video recordings. And I said, this is terrible. I said, if OpenAI actually releases it like this, this is going to make ChatGPT bad for everyone. Because in the original release there was no pop up kind of notification in your chat. So you could be chatting with Chat GPT put in whatever information and it would just commit things to memory. And at least in their initial release that very few beta testers had access to, you didn't know when things were kind of put in the memory bank versus when they weren't, which can be problematic. And we're going to talk about that. So I'm glad They made that update. You know, Maybe me bugging OpenAI so much about certain things, who knows, maybe, maybe that influenced them. But now at least in the chat it will tell you memory updated and then you get this little new pop up that you know, you probably haven't seen before and it kind of shows you what was committed to memory and then it gives you an option right within the chat to click on manage memory, which is pretty nice. So as an example, I said my name is Jordan, I like deep dish pizza, I'm from Chicago, people call me a robot. So there's a little UI UX tweak here that I think that they should make because I gave it multiple facts and at least in this response back from ChatGPT, it looks like it just committed it as one memory because it says Jordan likes deep dish pizza, is from Chicago and is nicknamed Robot. Even though I didn't say I was nicknamed robot, I just said people call me at robot. So little in the details there, but still. All right, so now I can go in and manage that memory if I want to. So here's the other thing that you need to know. So now I opened a brand new chat, so we just committed that to memory. I'm going to show you how you can manage or talk to you and tell you how you can manage that memory in the past. But I wanted to skip to the end and say, hey, here's how that works, right? So I kind of put, put those things into Chat GPT. Chat GPT decided this is an important detail that I'm going to commit to memory. And again it will do that automatically. You can tell it, you can say hey, you know, put that in my memory and it will do that. But you know, especially early on it's going to be grabbing a lot of different things in your early on chats. Once you first enable this and just committing it to your memory. But then what happens, you know, let's skip to the end. So I just open a new chat and I said write a poem about my favorite food. So in this case I didn't have to mention a memory. I didn't have to tell Chad GPT what my favorite food was. And then it responds with here's a poem about deep dish pizza inspired by your favorites, right? And then it even talks about there about Chicago, right? Because I said I'm from Chicago. So you can see right away how this could be useful, right? I'm sure that so many of you have to spend a lot of time in ChatGPT or any other large language models, right? Kind of re reminding a chat. Like, hey, like I'm a researcher, this is what I do. You know, this is the kind, this is the type of information that I care about. This is how I want your outputs to look. So all of these different things can be committed to memory. All right? And then you'll see, you know, it's pretty useful in that regard, right? That you don't have to, you know, always remind it of certain things about you. All right? So then you can manage your memory from the settings. So in the same way that you enabled it, you can also go click the manage button and then you can manage it. So I was, I have some other kind of memory things here. I was trying to trip chat GPT up. You know, we always try to test these things and, and break them. So as an example, you know, here in another chat I said, hey, Bob hates pizza. So I was seeing if it could, if it was going to get mixed up and if I said, hey, write it, you know, write a poem about my favorite favorite food. If I gave it kind of conflicting, you know, points of. Points of information, right? I said, hey, my name's Jordan, I love pizza. And then I just said imaginary story about this guy named Bob who hates pizza. And I was seeing if it would trip up, but it didn't. But anyway, so you can go in and manage your memory and you'll see luckily here. So I said when it originally committed that kind of statement to memory, it looked like it was putting it in as one big chunk, but it didn't, so it made separate kind of memory instances. So it said Jordan likes deep dish pizza. That's one memory. Jordan is from Chicago. That's another memory. Jordan is nicknamed Robot. That's another memory. So what you can do from this manage memory section is you can delete them all individually or you can clear the memory. So one thing that I would like to see is the, the ability to edit a memory. So like even as small example there when it says Jordan is nicknamed robot, I'm not, I was just saying people call me a robot sometimes. So I'd like to be able to edit that and update it or even from this instance, I think it would be great if you could add new memories here, but you cannot. So that's something important to keep in mind. Once ChatGPT has kind of committed something to your memory bank, you can't edit it. Also, you can't go into manage your memory and add or, you know, can't edit things. But you can't add things either. All you can do is delete them. So you might have to. If you are trying to commit certain things to your Chat GPT memory, you can obviously tell it and say, hey, commit these things to memory, list them in bullet points on new lines and it will kind of put it in that way. So that's probably how I would recommend people use this versus just giving, you know, Chat GPT the freedom early on. So if you're going to go out and you know, test this today or if you want to use it early next week for a project, I would suggest doing it like that, saying, hey chatgpt, commit these things to my memory, bullet point them, make them very specific. Otherwise what's going to happen is ChatGPT is going to take some, it's going to take some creative freedom in thinking what you want committed to memory and even how it interprets certain things that you say. So that's important. You know, the manage memory part is a little tricky. So great couple great questions here from, from Woozy and Harold. So thanks for the questions. So Woozy said, interesting, in your opinion, as you're using it, does it feel like it's trying to commit the appropriate things to memory? So I'll say yes, you know, again, but early on, you know, I don't have a lot in the memory. I just started playing with this, you know, probably for an hour so far because yes, it did just release to most people within the last day or so. So I haven't had a ton of chance, Woozy to, to play with it. But I do have some thoughts on that here later in my little presentation. And then Harold says, I am guessing if you correct it that it'll override its training information. Yes, that's a great question. So it will delete those pieces of memory. So let's say it gets something incorrect. So even if you are in the chat and say, you know, I can say, oh, I'm not nicknamed Robot, people just call me that, you know, update the memory, it will actually delete the old one. So there won't be contradictory things. So yes, Chat GBT will on its own, kind of manage the memory on its own. So it's not like, you know, if I say oh, people call me Robot, it got it wrong. It said Jordan's nickname robot. So it's not going to have two of those different things. It will automatically delete the one. And you know, if I tell it to or if it realizes that it made a mistake in committing something to memory Great questions, great questions. All right, so let's get this thing, let's keep going because here's some important things. So kind of number five thing that you need to know is you can start a temporary chat without memory. So you are going to have a new option when you go into chat GPT after you've enabled memory is there's something called temporary chat. So this is important and this is kind of where custom instructions actually come into play. And I'm going to tell you about that here in a second. So if you choose temporary chat, here's some of the toggles that come up. Also I apparently like I have four chatgpt accounts. Apparently I need more because I have two on teams and I have two on free. But I just realized I don't have any on the normal chat GPT plus, so I don't know if this current feature. So hey, if you do have normal chat GPT plus which is $20 a month, I should actually explain them. So our team has chat GPT teams, so it's a little different. You pay an extra $10 a month and there's actually a lot of nice features, there's some better sharing features, some more data control. And the thing that I actually like is you get double the limits. So you don't have that 40 message limit within a three hour period, which is what the chat GPT plus account limits are. So if you're on a teams account, you actually have double that. You have 80 messages within a three hour window. But what I just realized is I believe this feature here may only be available to those on chat GPT teams. So apologies, but hey, if someone could let me know. So the temporary chat has something at the very bottom, but let me just tell you what it is. So it says not in history. It says temporary chats won't appear in your history. For safety purposes, we may keep a copy of your chat for up to 30 days. On a temporary chat there's obviously no memory, so, so it says Chat GPT won't use or create memories in temporary chats. If you have custom instructions, they'll still be followed. Then it says no model training. So temporary chats won't be able, won't be used to improve our models. Another important thing kind of related to this, so GPTs still work normally. However, you cannot commit things to memory right now while chatting with HGPT just because for this very issue. Because with the temporary kind of chat and what that kind of gives you a little additional, you know, think of it like an incognito browser almost. So you're saying, hey, when I'm, you know, doing all this chatting, it's not going to commit things to memory. So right now, at least as of my testing yesterday, the memory feature, if you are quote unquote talking to a GPT, will not work, mainly because, you know, the third party GPTs, it sounds like there's probably some data and security things that just aren't in place yet to be able to still have that quote unquote temporary chat functionality and still chat with third party GPTs. So that's important to keep in mind. So let's get back to the temporary chat and see what that looks like. So I actually like the UI of this, right? So when you have a temporary chat, I like this, it tells you at the top. So that's good. So you don't have to say, okay, is this a temporary chat where I'm not using the memory? But so in this case I said, what is my favorite food? And then ChatGPT says, I don't know what your favorite food is, but if you tell me, we can chat about it. So the good thing I like as well is at the bottom, the kind of text input box becomes this kind of dark gray or black color. So it's nice. So you have multiple kind of reminders that this is a temporary chat and you're not using that memory feature. So, so you might ask why, right? Well, there might be times when I don't want chat GPT to be maybe knowing about. I'm writing about pizza or I'm from Chicago, right? So let's say I'm, you know, or maybe you are writing something for a client. Maybe you're using this to write for, you know, multiple clients. So that's something with this, this memory feature and even custom instructions which we're going to get to in a second, that's something I don't necessarily like that. It's, it's not always super easy to toggle this on and off. I wish that there was a, an ability to toggle this memory feature on and off within a chat, but you do almost have to go into this own dedicated mode of a temporary chat. Because here's, here's what I think, why that's problematic. I think a lot of people are going to start a normal chat, they're going to keep going and then all of a sudden they're going to get this crazy response, right? And they're going to be like, oh, you know, I'm writing this for you know, I'm creating an SOP for a banking client and now all of a sudden it's bringing in my personal information, like what's going on here? And then you remember, oh, I'm in a normal chat, so it's bringing in all my memory. So you kind of have to start over at that point and go in and create a new chat and make sure it's temporary. So I, I wish that there was a way to toggle this on and off within individual chats, which is another reason why I don't use custom instructions. Kind of the same, same reasoning. So. Are you still running in circles trying to figure out how to actually grow your business with AI? Maybe your company has been tinkering with large language models for a year or more, but can't really get traction to find ROI on gen AI. Hey, this is Jordan Wilson, host of this very podcast. Companies like Adobe, Microsoft and Nvidia have partnered with us because they trust our expertise in educating the masses around generative AI to get ahead. And some of the most innovative companies in the country hire us to help with their AI strategy and to train hundreds of their employees on how to use Gen AI. So whether you're looking for ChatGPT training for thousands, or just need help building your front end AI strategy, you can partner with us too. Just like some of the biggest companies in the world do. Go to your everydayai.com partner to get in contact with our team or you can just click on the partner section of our website. We'll help you stop running in those AI circles and help get your team ahead and build a straight path to ROI on Gen AI. So speaking of that, that is one of our last points that we want to make here in today's show is it can be used with or instead of custom instructions. So when you do go in your settings and you go to personalization to look at your memory, you'll see that you can still use custom instructions and memory at the exact same time. So here's kind of the difference. Okay? Custom instructions. If you haven't used them or if you maybe don't know what they are, it is literally that. So you are giving instructions to ChatGPT specifically on how you want it to act or how it should perform. So you're kind of giving it instructions and you're saying, hey, you know, when you respond, always respond in an informal tone. So this is where I think there's, I wouldn't say confusion, but there's actually a lot of crossover here because when you Go into your custom instructions. Within Chat GPT, there's actually two different things. So custom instructions ask you what would you like ChatGPT to know about you to provide better responses, which is kind of what this whole memory thing is. And then there's another feature or another segment in custom responses that says, how would you like ChatGPT to respond? So with memory, you should think of memory as certain details about whether you, your client, your business, the type of work that you're using ChatGPT for. So there is still a lot of crossover. And I think it's actually going to be problematic for people that like and use custom instructions to use memory because there might be some conflicting or slightly different custom instructions versus what's in your memory. So at least for me personally, I don't like using custom instructions because again, you have to either enable it or disable it account wide. So at least with the new memory feature, you can still use memory for some of those things that you might normally use custom instructions for. As an example, you know, all of your replies should be in informal tone or you know, when summarizing a long article, you know, summarize in short bullet points. So you can still add those things to your memory, even though that might be something that you would generally use custom instructions for. So the benefit here, and kind of one of the reasons why I might be using this feature when I don't really use custom instructions is for that. So I can have now different channels chats that are saved in my account. Some of them are using memory and some of them aren't where at least with custom instructions, you do not have that ability. You have to essentially toggle it on and off for your entire account. So let's say if you did want to toggle custom instructions on and you were in an old chat, well, that one doesn't have custom instructions. So I kind of wish that Chat GPT would just merge these things. That would be a lot better. I think you kind of have these two different layers of customization. One you can toggle with memory. You can toggle it on and off. Well, you can't really toggle it on and off, but you can choose a temporary chat which essentially toggles it off and then you have custom instructions which again can only be toggled on and off system wide. So a little confusing there, I'd say. From ChatGPT, I would hope that OpenAI just combines these two features, but, you know, who knows? So that's something important. If you do want to use this new Memory feature. Again, think of it as you're pulling little bits and pieces of information, whether it's about you, your company, how you like to receive things, maybe you, you like similes and metaphors, right? So you can add a, you know, you can do this in custom instructions, but you can also do it in memory. You can say, you know, when explaining complex topics, use similes or metaphors, right? So these are things, but they're going to follow you around in all of your chats unless you start a temporary chat and then the last thing that's important to know. Well, at least right now, this new memory feature is really slowing down responses. Again, I'm not sure how it's working under the hood, but in my testing it is taking a little bit longer. Even if I'm, you know, asking something that maybe is not related to memory or it's not pulling the memory, I'm finding the response is a little slower. The reason being now is, you know, you could think of this as like super mini rag, right? You know, you're putting these, you know, retrieval, augmented generation, right? You're not putting in, you know, gigabytes of files. But each time that you're now interacting with chat gbt, it is kind of checking with this thing third party, quote, unquote, but it's checking with your memory bank each and every time. And at least in my early testing, I did notice that it was markedly slower. Not a lot, but maybe I would say response times were taking 30 to 50% longer. It could be because this is a new feature, it's not fully optimized. It could be there's an influx of new users trying out this feature. But at least right now, this was slowing down responses. So whether it was committing things to memory, checking if something that I talked about was in memory or not, or replying to something that was in the memory, this new feature was slowing chatgpt down just a little bit. So that's something to keep into consideration. All right, so that is it. I think there's a couple of questions. Let's go ahead and get to them. So Tanya saying doesn't mean that. Doesn't this mean that chat GPT could conduct bio. Bio, sorry, this is very small, small font. Essentially bio research on us. Yeah, I mean, technically, yes, but this has already been going on anyway. So yeah, OpenAI can use all of this information for training data. So if you do start a temporary chat, it doesn't do that. Right. So it's not going to be training, you know, its models on your memory and you know, how it responds to those memories. So yeah, I definitely. And Tanya, thanks for that. I always say never put any, you know, confidential, proprietary, you know, personal health information into any large language model. But the same thing you probably shouldn't be putting in, you know, very personal details because in theory those would be used to train future models. So that doesn't mean it's going to be in its data set, but it is going to be used to train their future models. Jonathan, good question. Says, is it clear how to define when you are using a temporary chat versus a non temporary chat? Thanks for that reminder. Yes. So it does have the little banner up top as well as the kind of darker response at the bottom. Whereas normally if you're in a normal chat, it's kind of the white message input box. So you have kind of two different reminders there. All right, I think we made it to the end so I hope this was helpful getting this overview of the brand new memory chat. I'll tell you this, I'm going to be using this at least early on. I haven't used custom instructions because I use ChatGPT for a variety of tasks. Right. I'm in ChatGPT essentially all day and this is where at least for custom instructions, you know, having this blanket application to to everything to all of your chats didn't really work out for me. So I'll probably start using this because there are certain things that I would like to kind of commit to memory and then having the ability to do this temporary chat is great as well. So if I don't want all of those kind of personal memory things to influence my other outputs, you have that option as well. So I would recommend that most people at least give this a try. It's going to work best. So this new memory feature is going to work best if you have a limited or a more limited use of ChatGPT. So let's just say you use it just for your business or just for personal or maybe if you have clients, you use it just for helping create content or research for one client. But if you're using it for many different clients or many different reasons, or you know, personal business and side projects and clients, that's where I think you might run into some issues. And that's kind of how I use Chat GPT. So I'm going to give this a try. If you use chatgpt a ton for many different use cases, I think it's going to be a little tricky to manage that quote unquote, Memory bank. I think it would be nice if in the future that if it gave you kind of profiles to work on and you could choose a profile and hey, here's these 20 pieces of memory that go with my, you know, personal profile. Here's these 20 pieces of memory that go with, you know, the everyday AI business profile. But for, for me, I personally use chat, GPT and other light and other large language models for so many varied use cases that I don't think I'm going to be able to get a ton out of the memory. But I'm going to try it out and I'm sure we'll be, you know, checking in. So that's it. I'd love to hear your thoughts and what you think if this is going to be a feature that you use.
