Please allow ChatGPT conversations to continue indefinitely instead of eventually reaching a hard maximum-length limit that forces the user to start a new chat.
Long-running conversations are useful for troubleshooting, research, project tracking, technical support, and other work where accumulated context matters. When ChatGPT displays “You’ve reached the maximum length for this conversation,” the continuity of that work is interrupted and the user has to manually transfer information into a new chat.
Ideally, conversations should be effectively unlimited from the user’s perspective. If technical context limits make literal unlimited context impossible, ChatGPT could automatically summarize/archive older portions internally, segment the conversation behind the scenes, or create a seamless linked continuation while preserving the important context and full visible history.
The user should be able to keep talking in the same conversation without encountering a hard stop.
I have attached a screenshot showing the current maximum-length message. Thank you for considering this improvement.
I strongly support this request as a paying ChatGPT Plus subscriber.
I use ChatGPT for complex, long-running engineering and software development projects. I have already been forced to move through at least nine consecutive conversations for a single ongoing project because of the maximum per-conversation prompt limit.
In my most recent documented example, I had to replace a conversation approximately 22 hours after it started.
This is a persistent problem, not an isolated incident.
I have tried Projects, technical handoff documents, summaries, and reference files. None of these solves the underlying limitation.
OpenAI Support confirmed that the warning concerns a per-conversation prompt/turn limit, but could not confirm human escalation or review by the engineering team.
I am requesting a substantial increase in conversation capacity, or a seamless continuation mechanism that does not interrupt ongoing projects.
The repeated interruptions are seriously undermining the value of my paid subscription, and I am considering cancellation.
Please prioritize this issue for users working on long-term technical projects.
Strongly support this, if not extended lenghts i want to be able to give links to other chats where the current chat can use that chat to gain context from that chat.
