API Suggestions

Introduction

AI-powered tools like ChatGPT have significantly enhanced productivity, but they primarily serve individual users. There is currently no persistent, shared AI memory that allows multiple users to collaborate on the same project while maintaining AI-assisted context.

I propose a Shared AI Memory System, where multiple users working on a project can have:
:white_check_mark: AI-assisted memory synchronization across contributors.
:white_check_mark: Continuous context retention, ensuring seamless workflow.
:white_check_mark: Real-time updates and feedback loops, improving collaboration.

Problem Statement

Existing AI implementations reset memory between sessions or restrict it to a single user. This limits:

  1. Multi-user collaboration – Teams must manually update each other on AI-assisted projects.

  2. Continuity in AI-assisted workflows – AI doesn’t recall previous interactions across different users.

  3. Scalability for businesses – AI cannot maintain evolving context across departments or teams.

Proposed Solution

A multi-user AI memory framework where:

AI retains context across multiple authorized users working on the same project.

AI provides real-time updates whenever a change is made by any user.

API calls allow cross-user memory persistence, improving team efficiency.

Potential Use Cases

Software Development: AI-assisted code completion that remembers project context across developers.

Business & Startups: AI that retains strategic discussions and decisions for multiple stakeholders.

Education & Research: AI that helps multiple students/researchers collaborate on a single knowledge base.

Integration with OpenAI API

Expand the existing memory system to support multi-user access via API.

Introduce project-based memory instances linked to team accounts.

Allow user authentication and permissions to control memory access and updates.

Closing Thoughts

This feature could transform how AI is used for teamwork, making OpenAI a pioneer in true AI-powered collaboration. I’d love to hear the community’s thoughts on feasibility, security considerations, and potential API architecture.

Looking forward to feedback!
