"Feature Request: Switch Between Previous Topics in ChatGPT"

Hi OpenAI Team :waving_hand:,

As a student who uses ChatGPT daily for learning, Iโ€™ve noticed a challenge. When I ask multiple questions across different topics, and later try to return to a previous topic, ChatGPT often forgets the earlier context.

:repeat_button: Feature Suggestion:

Please allow users to switch between previous topic threads or reopen earlier threads within the same conversation, so we can continue where we left off โ€” without losing the flow.

Why this matters:

  • Students jump between subjects (e.g., DSA โž Automata โž Resume tips โž back to DSA).
  • Right now, we have to re-explain everything.
  • This feature would make ChatGPT more like a knowledge partner, not just a Q&A tool.

It could look like:

  • Tabs for each topic
  • โ€œReturn to previous topicโ€ button
  • Smart topic detection and grouping

Thank you for considering this โ€” it would help students like me learn much more effectively!
