Feature Request: Ability to Delete Individual Messages in a Chat

Dear OpenAI Team and Community,

I’d like to suggest a useful feature for ChatGPT: the ability to delete individual messages within a conversation.

Why this feature would be beneficial:

  1. Accidental Messages – Sometimes, I accidentally press “Enter” too soon or send an unintended message. Without a delete option, the chat becomes cluttered.
  2. Better Chat Organization – Long conversations can get overwhelming, and being able to remove unnecessary messages would help keep things clean and relevant.
  3. Improved User Experience – Many other platforms allow users to delete individual messages, improving readability and usability. Adding this feature would enhance ChatGPT’s overall functionality.

I believe this would be a valuable addition, and I’d love to see it considered in a future update. If other users also think this would be helpful, please support this request!

Thank you for your time!
