AI-assisted Projects: organize knowledge across multiple conversations

Title: AI-assisted Projects: organize knowledge across multiple conversations

I use ChatGPT every day, not just to ask isolated questions, but to build long-term projects over weeks and months.

The current conversation-based organization has one important limitation: related discussions often end up scattered across many different chats. After a while, I may remember the topic, but not which conversation contains it.

I would like to propose a new feature called Projects.

Each project would represent a long-term topic (for example: Personal Organization, Health, Teaching, Home Improvement, etc.).

The most important part is that ChatGPT should proactively suggest linking a conversation to an existing project when it detects a recurring topic. The user could simply accept or dismiss the suggestion.

A project would then gather the relevant knowledge from multiple conversations while preserving the conversations themselves.

This would allow users to continue developing ideas over months without having to remember where a discussion took place.

The goal is not simply to organize conversations. The goal is to let ChatGPT help organize knowledge and long-term thinking, instead of expecting users to manage that organization manually.

I believe this would make ChatGPT much more valuable for people who use it as a long-term thinking partner rather than only for one-off questions.

Would this feature be useful to other users as well?

Small clarification:

I know ChatGPT already has Projects. My suggestion is different.

I would like ChatGPT to proactively recognize recurring topics across conversations and suggest linking them to the appropriate project automatically.

The key idea is AI-assisted organization, not just manual project management.

I can relate to this problem. I’ve actually built a small Chrome extension around maintaining project context across AI conversations. It’s not exactly the feature you described, but it tackles a similar problem from a different angle. If you’re open to testing it and giving honest feedback, I’d be happy to send you the link..

Thanks for clarifying—we understand you mean suggestions that place related chats into the right project, with your approval, rather than manual Projects. We’ll pass that workflow along to the product team. We don’t have a timeline to share, but appreciate the feedback.
