Use this interactive demo to learn how to disable memory saving in ChatGPT settings.

Quick summary

This demo shows how to turn off memory in ChatGPT so it stops saving and referencing past conversations. You can disable this feature in under a minute using the Personalization settings.


Steps

  1. Click your profile icon in the top-right corner to access the menu.
  2. Select Personalization to manage your preferences.
  3. Navigate to the Memory settings section where you control memory options.
  4. Toggle off Reference saved memories to disable memory.
  5. ChatGPT will no longer save or reference memories from your conversations.

📌 Why this matters

Controlling ChatGPT's memory feature matters for users who prioritize privacy and want full control over what the AI retains between sessions. Disabling memory prevents ChatGPT from referencing saved personal details, making conversations stateless and more private. This is especially important for users sharing a device, handling sensitive topics, or simply wanting a clean slate with every chat. Knowing how to turn off memory gives users direct control over their ChatGPT data and personalization settings.
