How To Save and Search for Chat History with ChatGPT
ChatGPT is a breakthrough, but it has a critical UX issue in regard to organizing past knowledge. Many find it challenging to manage and search through past interactions with ChatGPT, which can contain valuable insights. As a result, you need to start over asking the same question to ChatGPT and struggle with it until you get the perfect result you've gotten in the past.
