A new feature available on ChatGPT from OpenAI is altering how people work with AI. The feature is called Memory and every user, even those on the free plan, can use it.
Because of this feature, ChatGPT can store your details such as your name, what you like and the goals you have set. So, the next time you speak to it again, it can respond more quickly and with the information you need.
What Is the ChatGPT Tool That Stores Information?
Think about Memory as if your best friend knows your birthday and your favorite thing to eat. ChatGPT uses its Memory in the same way as it does for Text. Conversations with your assistant do not have to start all the way from square one; it will now remember your previous sharing.
For example:
- Saying you’re a high school student allows ChatGPT to remember this.
- Should you need help every week while writing a story, it can keep a record of the characters you set up.
- If you like shorter replies or lists, the chatbot will deliver information this way whenever you use it again.
What is So Important About Memory?
You could open ChatGPT again and again and it always greeted you as if this were your first time. You kept answering the same questions again and again. The process may be slow and frustrating.
Let’s look at Memory
- It helps you get responses to your problems more quickly and easily
- You are able to form a relationship with your AI assistant.
- The time you spend talking about repeats yourself is reduced and you get more projects finished
It’s basically having your own personal assistant who understands you.
