Memory product improvement

Subject: Request for Project-Based Scoped Memory + Encrypted Long-Term Storage

Message:

As a GPT-4 Pro user managing multiple business and health-related workflows, the current memory system is limiting and inefficient.

I propose the following upgrades:
1. Scoped Memory by Folder/Project
• Memory should only activate when working in a specific chat folder.
• Prevents irrelevant cross-topic bleed (e.g., health data affecting business discussions).
• Enhances performance, reduces hallucinations.
2. Encrypted Long-Term Memory Zones
• Allow folders (e.g., Health, Finance) to be flagged for encrypted, non-expiring memory.
• Only user can delete — critical for professionals and privacy.
3. Retention Rules Per Folder
• Options like:
• Delete when folder deleted
• Expire after X days
• Keep permanently
4. User-Controlled Search Scope
• Let user decide:
• “Use only this folder’s memory”
• “Search all memory”
• “Prompt before pulling external memory”
5. Paid Memory Expansion Tiers
• Allow users to pay for more memory per folder/project.
• Simple monetization path, aligns with cloud storage models.

This structure improves utility, accuracy, and privacy — and makes ChatGPT more viable for power users and enterprise. Please escalate to product.

Thank you,
