A Costly and Dangerous Vicious Circle Inside the GPT Interface
As a long-term user developing a complex, calibrated literary project (The Thirteenth Server), I’ve spent hundreds of hours working inside a single GPT-4 chat — tuning narrative voices, adjusting tone, building layered stylistic identities for multiple characters. This chat has effectively become a co-writing space — shaped by memory, tempo, feedback loops, and progressive calibration.
When I tried to create a Custom GPT to encapsulate this deep contextual tuning, I got a simple answer:
No, you cannot transfer any of that.
Critical limitations:
There's no way to export the finely-tuned memory, tone, or stylistic balance developed in long-running chats.
There's no option to embed that work into a Custom GPT.
There's no structured feedback channel to report this limitation directly to OpenAI’s team — just a checkbox for passive “model improvement.”
The Vicious Circle:
Users spend hundreds of hours pushing GPT to its narrative and cognitive limits.
They try to preserve and extend this work into a more structured tool.
The interface says: No transfer possible.
There’s nowhere to report the problem directly.
The system learns nothing from its most invested users.
→ That’s a self-silencing system.
→ And a dangerous loop for any platform seeking to grow through real user feedback.
Suggestion:
Add a “Calibrate & Export” feature, allowing users to carry over style, tone, and memory from a regular chat into a Custom GPT.
Or at the very least, make it clear to users that this is currently impossible.
Transparency prevents frustration. Silence kills trust.
Let me know if others have encountered this — or found workarounds. This deserves discussion.
