What ChatGPT Thinks It Knows About You Is Affecting Its Answers. Here’s How to Change That

ChatGPT’s memory feature automatically stores and updates user interactions, allowing the model to reference past conversations and personalize responses. Users can view, edit, or delete these memories through the app’s Personalization settings, and disabling memory stops future references while preserving existing data for potential re-activation. The system aims to keep context useful, follow preferences, and stay current, but users retain limited control over what is remembered.
