ChatGPT's Memory System
ChatGPT's memory feature allows the AI to remember information across conversations. This creates a personalized experience that improves over time.
How Memory Works
Memory stores facts, preferences, and context that you've explicitly asked ChatGPT to remember. This includes things like your name, job role, preferences, and ongoing projects.
Custom Instructions
Custom Instructions let you set permanent context for all your conversations. Set your background, preferred response style, and specific requirements that apply to every interaction.
