   Description:   
   ChatGPTs new memory upgrade lets Plus and Pro users instantly revisit   
   conversations from a year ago  complete with direct links to the original   
   chats.   
      
   FULL STORY   
      
   ChatGPT can now remember what you asked it a year ago and show you the exact   
   conversation. This new memory upgrade for Plus and Pro users turns old chats   
   into something searchable, permanent, and surprisingly useful.    
      
   Its memory is now so good that you can ask it about that chili sauce recipe   
   you requested a year ago, and theres a good chance it will find it, complete   
   with a link back to the exact conversation.   
      
   ChatGPT never forgets    
      
   Before the most recent memory upgrade, if you asked ChatGPT what you were   
   talking about a year ago, it would usually respond with some version of I    
   dont actually have a window into your full chat history going back a year,   
   followed by a handful of fairly ineffectual suggestions involving digging   
   through your browser history.    
      
   Now, instead, it flashes up a remembering message and then hits you with   
   exactly what you were asking it a year ago.    
      
   As a Plus user, I just tried it  and its actually pretty impressive. I typed:    
      
    What was I asking you a year ago?    
      
   What I got back was a detailed breakdown of everything Id been asking it at   
   the time. Apparently, I was going through a phase of asking ChatGPT to    
   analyze Nicolas Winding Refn films. If youve ever watched any of them, youll   
   probably understand why I needed a bit of help.   
      
   Check your sources    
      
   Thanks to the Sources feature in ChatGPT, you can now jump straight back into   
   those exact chats from a year ago. Click Sources at the bottom of the reply   
   and a panel opens, showing direct links to the original conversations.    
      
   This is genuinely impressive. Suddenly, chats dont feel disposable any more.   
   Ive long since moved on from trying to decipher the inner workings of Refns   
   mind, but it was fascinating to revisit those conversations.    
      
   If youre a Plus or Pro user, you can try this yourself right now. Theres no   
   need to update ChatGPT  just ask it what you were asking a year ago, and you   
   might be surprised by what comes back. The feature has rolled out globally to   
   all ChatGPT Plus and Pro users today.
