ChatGPT Memory is Here and It's a Huge Upgrade

Summary

The video script discusses a significant upgrade to Chat GPT, which now includes the ability to store memory across different chats. This feature is currently available in Chat GPT Plus subscriptions in certain regions, excluding Europe and Korea. Users can access this feature by navigating to their settings and personalization tab. The script provides five practical examples of how to utilize this new memory feature, such as uploading a LinkedIn profile screenshot to store work history, creating shortcuts for tasks like blog post creation, generating alternative headlines, and setting preferences like avoiding specific words in responses. The memory function can be managed, allowing users to delete or add specific memories. The script also mentions the return of GPT capabilities, enabling users to toggle web browsing and access to the Dolly and code interpreter.
