Not sure when this started or why but the chat history doesn’t look like it’s being saved serverside but clientside. When Switching browsers the chat history isn’t populating in the new browser. Clearing Cookies is causing the chat history to be cleared. It’s account releated IMO.
This issue makes me less trustful of the entire service. How can I be sure I’m actually interacting with gpt-4o and not some open-source knockoff?
Logged in Consistently, the same way, password manager to 2FA with google authenticator app. Checked with a different network and device, mobile. Same result.
The odd thing: the playground site scripts have no need to enforce a 30-day history where they clean up your own local storage. Where you revisit 30 days later and everything that was there, being happy, gets wiped. A maximum number of turns would be a better management policy.
The subscription to ChatGPT doesn’t affect anything API.
If you want a robust session history - write an app!
Can’t believe you inferred from that I thought a chat history would be stored as cookies, Made me Smile.
I have only light usage with the playground but from what I remember it held state between browser restarts. I could definetly be wrong but could you point me towards any documentation that might confirm what you’re saying?
Completly agree, Absurd to include a 30 day window if it’s stored locally some type of size or turn managment makes more sense. It’s also quite misleading as it implies the management is server side not client side.
I agree that it could be clearer, maybe hover text, lest you expect to fire up your laptop and continue, or if you erroneously think it would expose all API usage.
Self-management of the past calls would be helpful, also. A delete button, even.
Assuming that you could be served some false AI model when using the OpenAI platform because of your ability to destroy your browser’s local history database, or not understanding where it is stored, is quite a leap of logic.
