Key points
OpenAI is rolling out some significant enhancements to ChatGPT's memory feature, particularly if you've been using the chatbot through a free account.
Before getting to those improvements, a quick recap will help set the stage for what to expect: OpenAI shipped its first memory feature in April 2024. By the company's own admission, this early implementation, then known as saved memories, was basic.
It depended on strong cues from user, such as a direct prompt telling ChatGPT to remember a fact.
People also found the chatbot's memories became less relevant over time.
So over the next year, OpenAI began working on the first version of a feature it would end up calling dreaming.
