Echoing a previously requested feature:
The Mac app can search through all chats, but once the chat is found, I need help locating the keyword in the short-listed searches, which is not available. I hope OpenAI can add this to future updates.
OpenAI recently introduced the ability to connect & share files directly from Google Drive. This functionality is great. It saves a lot of time and makes it easier to manage the interface.
However, what I think would greatly improve the user experience is the introduction of the following functionality:
When configuring the knowledge base of custom GPT, the user could be able to connect the GPTâs knowledge base directly to Google Drive, so GPT would always have access live access to the Google Drive file.
Iâd like to suggest a feature that enables ChatGPT to automatically âforgetâ or compress information that isnât accessed frequently.
This would help keep the memory bank efficient without needing manual intervention. The idea is to have an algorithm that periodically reviews stored memories, removing or compressing anything that hasnât been used or referenced in chats. It could do so by assigning a point value to the memory, and the more frequently that data is used, the more points it would have. Low point memories would be either auto-deleted or deleted with approval from the user.
Users could even set preferences for how aggressive this cleanup should be, ensuring the model stays relevant and responsive without unnecessary memory bloat.
Hello, I would love this feature. Has there been any update on this?
Please add:
- a search function
- a way to label chats in groups
- shift+enter for submitting query
- other keyboard shortcuts
- ability to resize borders
- another colum for autogenerated suggestions
- live code editing
- live editing of matplotlib features
- when suggesting edits to code, include a toggle button to see the diff instead of rewriting it all
- option to undelete a chat
Feature Suggestion â ChatGPT Research Edition for In-Depth Responses
Dear OpenAI Team,
I hope this message finds you well. Iâve been an enthusiastic user of ChatGPT for some time. I greatly appreciate the instant conversational responses that ChatGPT provides, but I believe there is an opportunity to introduce a new feature that could offer even more value to users seeking comprehensive, in-depth information.
Iâd like to propose the development of a âChatGPT Research Editionâ â an optional, delayed-response version of the current model. Below are some key details about this concept:
-
Customizable, In-Depth Responses:
This edition would allow users to submit queries and receive detailed, well-researched responses after a set period (for example, 12 or 24 hours). Instead of focusing on instantaneous replies, this model would provide higher quality, more thoughtful, and potentially more accurate information. Users could customize the depth, structure, and focus of the response through an interface with options such as drop-down menus. -
Application for Professional and Academic Use:
This version would cater to researchers, students, and professionals who need deep dives into complex topics, comprehensive explanations, and reliable information for academic or work purposes. It could also include citations and references for further reading, making it ideal for those looking to expand their knowledge with credible sources. -
Enhanced User Experience with Programmable Answers:
A key feature would be the ability for users to specify their preferences for the format and style of responsesâwhether they want a technical breakdown, a creative exploration, or a simplified overview. This would make the AI more versatile and user-friendly, addressing the needs of a diverse audience. -
Integration with Multimedia:
The âResearch Editionâ could also incorporate multimedia elements, such as charts, diagrams, or code snippets, where appropriate, to help users visualize complex concepts. -
Benefits for Long-Form Communication:
By allowing AI to take more time to craft a response, it could mimic the process of human research and reflection, leading to better accuracy and fewer errors. This would be ideal for users who prioritize quality over speed in their information-gathering process.
I believe this feature could greatly enhance the utility of ChatGPT, particularly for those who need deeper, more reliable insights for academic or professional use. If this concept aligns with your future vision for the platform, I would be excited to see how it could be developed and incorporated.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Iâd be happy to discuss this idea further or provide additional details if needed.
same, I really need that because I often want to go back to a certain chat, but I canât find it
Feature and fix suggestions from an avid ChatGPT user:
(1) Date and timestamp on all messages in chat, similar to iPhone text messages (web and iOS).
(2) Streamlined ability to copy text in chats (iOS). Current protocol: long press on chat > select text. Suggested change: ability to copy text without the long press.
(3) Better functionality around knowledge of other chats (web and iOS). I often ask questions of ChatGPT re other chat threads, but the info it provides is generally inaccurate. Eg, if Iâm in a chat titled âHealthâ and I ask ChatGPT about content in a chat titled âSurgery,â its responses are lacking as ChatGPT seems to have a partial / incomplete / inaccurate view of content in other chat threads.
(4) âForgetfulnessâ (web and iOS). ChatGPT has a tendency to forget the latest information discussed. Eg, I asked about my latest health regimen (diet, fitness, supplements, etc.), and it returned dated information from weeks to months prior. I had to ask it to correct itself, which it did. It seems to lose track of some information at times. Eg, I asked it to compare my latest blood work results from Oct vs. my prior results in Aug, but it returned incorrect information for my Aug results. I communicated that to ChatGPT, and it fixed it. Why wasnât it right in the first place?
(5) Ability to search all chats in the web version. Feature exists in iOS, but is missing in the web version.
Thanks for your consideration.

Another feature I would like to see other than folders is
a) auto-archival : put a timer on each chat to ask if it is okay to archive and if so, in which folder
b) chat reminders : have the ability to remind you about the chat you were working on (this would help chats âfloatâ to the top until they become completed tasks, increasing productivity)
also why prompt the âcontinue generatingâ button instead of trying it first by default? BTW you hiring? lol
Hi OpenAI! You there?!
I asked chatgpt to summarize the entire conversation and add brackets around my suggestions .
