Here's how to turn off ChatGPT memory, see what it remembers, and delete what you don't want kept. Open Settings, then Personalization, then Memory. The labels depend on your account.
You may see Memory, Reference saved memories, or Reference chat history. To see what ChatGPT remembers, open the memory summary, or Saved memories. Delete an item you don't want kept, or type a correction in the summary.
To turn memory off, switch off Memory, or the matching control on your screen. Or, in the summary's three-dot menu, choose Delete and turn off memory. Turning memory off doesn't delete your past chats.
A memory can come from a chat, a saved file, or a connected app. Deleting a chat alone may not delete the memory, so delete the saved memory too. For a one-off topic, start a Temporary chat and pick Unpersonalized before your first message.
Temporary chats don't create or update memories. Still want a chat to know your background? Kortex keeps facts you approved in its Library, each linked to where it came from.
Type semicolon me in any AI's chat box, and read and edit the pack before it goes in. Choose what ChatGPT remembers. Full steps and fixes are on our tutorial page.
