ChatGPT has a new hidden Temporary Chats setting

PCWorld reports that OpenAI is testing an updated Temporary Chat feature for ChatGPT that retains personal customizations without saving conversations. This hidden setting functions like Incognito Mode, allowing private chats while maintaining user personalization preferences across sessions. AI engineer Tibor Blaho discovered the optional feature, though OpenAI may still store chat copies for up to 30 days for security purposes. OpenAI is testing an update to ChatGPT's "Temporary Chat" feature . Temporary Chat allows you to "have a conversation with a blank slate" where "ChatGPT won't be aware of previous conversations or access memories." It's a lot like Incognito Mode in Chrome, which you can use to "privately" browse the web--except here, it's chatting. The update to Temporary Chat will sort of tweak this, allowing ChatGPT to retain your personal customizations without the conversation itself being saved or affecting your overall account. Temporary chat in ChatGPT has a new, currently hidden option that lets you still use personalization (memory, chat history, style and tone preferences) even though the chat is only temporary ChatGPT web app now also mentions new ChatGPT FinServ plans (Enterprise-like), shopping pic.twitter.com/CaMaeYlCmP
