In this short instructional video, Shaun Whynacht demonstrates how to access ChatGPT's "temporary chat" feature via the perforated chat bubble in the top‑right corner of the UI. He explains that conversations started in temporary chat do not appear in the user's chat history, do not update ChatGPT's memory, and are not used to train future models. For safety, a copy of the temporary chat is retained in the user's account for up to 30 days. Shaun encourages viewers to use this mode for private or sensitive questions they prefer not to have stored or influence future interactions.
