Dear OpenAI Team,
I’d like to suggest a feature that could greatly enhance the functionality of ChatGPT, especially for users working on sensitive or long-term projects: a “Lock Feature.”
What It Would Do:
This feature would allow users to “lock” specific conversations or projects, providing an extra layer of security and privacy. Locked conversations would require a password or verification step to access, ensuring sensitive discussions and proprietary ideas are protected.
How It Benefits Users:
- Enhanced Privacy: Protect intellectual property, brainstorming sessions, or confidential business ideas.
- Focus on Long-Term Projects: Users working on ongoing projects wouldn’t worry about accidental sharing or tampering.
- Peace of Mind: Students, entrepreneurs, and professionals can safely use ChatGPT for high-stakes planning.
How It Benefits OpenAI:
- Increased User Trust: A feature like this would establish OpenAI as a leader in privacy-conscious AI tools.
- New Use Cases: Encourages adoption by users in sensitive industries (e.g., entrepreneurs, startups, lawyers).
- Revenue Opportunities: Could tie into premium plans, offering enhanced privacy features as part of a subscription.
This feature would align with OpenAI’s mission to empower users while respecting privacy and security. I hope this idea sparks some interest, and I’d love to discuss it further.
Thank you for your time and for continuing to make ChatGPT an incredible tool!
Best regards,
Daniel Briseno
