I’m not sure if I’m misunderstanding what it is supposed to do but the new memory feature is really bad.
ChatGPT seems obsessed with putting explanatory comments into the code recently, and I’ve set a memory that it should not add them when generating code.
I use git so I don’t need it pointing out where the differences are, I can see them when I’m reviewing the code before check-in.
But it constantly ignores it. If I point it out then it will follow it for a reply or two but then it forgets it again, so I’m constantly having to delete random comments out of the code.
Same problem here. It also likes to add exactly the same entry multiple times, and is obviously using a dumbed down model to figure out if what it’s adding is actually relevant. I keep deleting stuff on a daily basis, so much that I want to switch it off, even though a proper working memory function is essential for me wanting to keep using OpenAI / ChatGPT as the preferred LLM.
Yeah. I did see that there was a lot of “Memory Updated” items, but didn’t really think about it. Today I hit the “Memory is full” error and that I have to do cleanup. Found that deleting isn’t working properly. When I delete an entry:
The entry doesn’t always go away.
I see multiple entries of the same text.
When I click on the trash bin icon, it sometimes states that this can’t be undone, but sometimes it just does nothing.
I’m actually wondering if these duplicate entries are actually the same entry, or maybe linked somehow and is the reason why I can’t delete a duplicate because the memory system thinks it already did?
I see the need for memory for it to transfer context from one session to another and I commend the attempt, but this seems to be poorly implemented as GPT can forget such preferences during session interaction. Sometimes it forgets that I like 2 space indenting instead of 4 for example. There needs to be a filter put in place to look at previous memories and not re-add them and possibly group them to make them easier to look through and perhaps help GPT recognize relations between them as some are related.
No, joke. This is the first 3 pages of the memory list:
I can’t delete all of these as it just doesn’t delete properly.
It would be nice if I could export them and then clean it up, clear the memory and reimport them if there isn’t a good way to fix this.
EDIT: Oh, I just realized that those pages (there are more like them) not only contain duplicates, but are duplicates which may have come from my Custom Instructions as this is what I have in there:
I like my code to be indented by 2 spaces, not 4.
I want you to check multiple sources be cited in answers to ensure accuracy and avoid oversights. Additionally, check that answers include a thorough examination of sources, digging deep into the websites to ensure the accuracy of the information provided.
Replace all anchor tags <a href="url>text you output with text: url.
So, what is the deal? I just cleared the memory, but this really needs to be fixed.
