I have managed to create an non-viewable, non-deletable chat session. It sits there in my chat history with “New chat” title, and if I try to open it, I get this error screen:
I might try to reverse-engineer how the ChatGPT UI carries out it’s chat session deletions, and try to issue manually made request to it’s API. But it might be interesting to understand what’s the reason behind this problem.
Here’s this session’s JSON from the export data:

The one element to suspect there is this one:

},
that is the only item with message == null.
