Despite not knowing what year it is, ChatGPT likely knows plenty about you, and unlike a trusted friend, it has to report back everything its learned. Until now, ChatGPT saved users’ conversations to train its impressive AI chatbot on.OpenAI has now introduced what is essentially the ChatGPT equivalent of incognito mode but you’ll have to enable it first.
Data privacy concerns were one of the main reasons that countries such as Italy banned ChatGP, so perhaps the AI could now make its return. Disabling the new Chat History & Training setting will see chats deleted from the OpenAI’s systems after 30 days.
Note: This method is for OpenAI's own version of ChatGPT, not the New Bing powered by ChatGPT.
