ChatGPT’s latest feature will keep your chats shielded from prying eyes
ChatGPT gets a locked folder for chats you want to keep private.
OpenAI has introduced a new feature for ChatGPT called "locked chats," which allows users to keep certain conversations hidden from view. This feature is similar to the locked folder in Google Photos, providing a private space to store selected conversations. These hidden chats are kept separate from regular chat history, pinned chats, and search results.
The feature is accessible to all ChatGPT users, including those on the Free, Go, Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans, across desktop, web, and mobile platforms. The primary reason for implementing locked chats is to maintain the privacy of sensitive information or avoid embarrassment by keeping specific conversations away from prying eyes.
Just like with search history, there may be certain chatbot conversations that users prefer not to be visible to others using their devices. It is essential to note that while locked chats offer a level of privacy, they are not end-to-end encrypted.
