🚨 Trending: ChatGPT Now Remembers You — What That Actually Means
This is the update that quietly changes everything.
As of this month, ChatGPT has a Memory feature—meaning it can now remember facts about you across chats.
Not just in the same thread. Across sessions.
đź§ It learns things like:
đź§ Your name
đź§ What you do
đź§ Your writing style
đź§ Topics you care about
🧠Past instructions (e.g. “keep things short and funny”)
📍 Why this matters:
Instead of telling it every single time:
“You’re a content marketer. I run a B2B SaaS. I like my writing casual, not corporate.”
Now you can say it once—and it sticks. That’s real assistant behavior.
🛠️ To enable:
⚙️ Go to Settings > Personalization > Memory
⚙️ Toggle Memory ON
⚙️ Click Manage memory to view/edit what it knows
đź’ˇ Pro tip: After enabling memory, ask ChatGPT:
“What do you remember about me?”
It’ll tell you exactly what it’s learned—so you can fine-tune it.
đź’ˇ AI Life Hack of the Day
The #1 mistake with ChatGPT: treating it like Google.
Let’s get real—most people type things like:
🧾 “Write a business plan.”
🧾 “Summarize this.”
🧾 “Give me content ideas.”
And then feel underwhelmed when ChatGPT responds like a bored intern.
But here’s the thing: ChatGPT isn’t a search engine. It’s a simulator.
You’re not “asking it” things—you’re guiding it to play a role.
đź§ Use this prompt template:
You are a [role]. Your task is to [objective]. Write in a [tone] tone and output as [format]. Here’s context: [background info].
📌 Real-world Example.
Instead of:
📝 “Write an email for our product launch.”
Try:
You’re a SaaS copywriter. Write a launch email announcing our new AI scheduling feature. Keep it fun, persuasive, and under 200 words. Highlight how it saves users 5+ hours/week.
đź‘€ Night-and-day difference in tone, depth, and value.
🔄 Bonus Tip: Layer your instructions
You can feed ChatGPT multiple prompts in a row, building momentum. Try this:
You’re my AI writing assistant.
Step 1: Ask me 3 questions to better understand the audience.
Step 2: Once I answer, generate 3 subject lines in my writing style.
Step 3: Then write the full email in a witty, confident tone.
Now you’re not just prompting—you’re orchestrating.
