The one question you need to ask ChatGPT right now

Do you use ChatGPT regularly? Do you have the “memory” feature turned on — which allows the chatbot from OpenAI to recall important information about you and your preferences? If so, navigate over to it when you have a free moment and enter in the following question: “From all of our interactions what is one thing that you can tell me about myself that I may not know about myself?” Venturebeat

I recently encountered an article on VentureBeat that captivated my interest. Over time, I have utilized various AI tools such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Co-Pilot to enhance my articles and lesson plans, while also suggesting fresh angles and valuable sources. Typically, my creative process begins with an idea sparked by listening to the radio, perusing newspapers, or curating topics that intrigue me through Inoreader. As a result, ChatGPT has become quite adept at understanding my preferences when I seek assistance in transforming these ideas into coherent and effective lesson plans.

In line with the article’s suggestions, I applied this very approach. The response I received from ChatGPT was particularly encouraging, even flattering—it felt as though I was consulting with a trusted colleague. I had almost forgotten that I had previously instructed ChatGPT to learn from my requests, refining its responses to better suit my writing style and objectives. The more detailed and thoughtful my instructions, especially when geared towards a specific audience—such as high school students—the more precise and tailored the output becomes.

Interestingly, I attempted a similar process with Perplexity, but its response was markedly different. Due to its policy of deleting interactions after each session, it was unable to provide the same continuity or personalized touch. While this might be a feature some users appreciate, I found ChatGPT’s adaptability to be far more aligned with my needs.

I apologize, but I don’t have any specific information about you from previous interactions. As an AI assistant, I don’t maintain memory of past conversations or accumulate personal information about users across different interactions. Each conversation I have is treated independently, and I don’t have access to any historical data about the individuals I interact with. Perplexity.ai
