OpenAI today announced a significant expansion of ChatGPT's customization and memory capabilities. For some users, it will now be able to remember information from the full breadth of their prior conversations with it and adjust its responses based on that information.

There are new memory settings that users can control. "Reference saved memories" can recall key facts about yourself, like your name or preferences. This information can be added to ChatGPT's memory when you explicitly tell it to or when it deems information as particularly useful.
