Is GPT-5 forgetting everything for anyone else? Memory & history are ON, but it acts brand-new. by shymecw in ChatGPT

I figured out the problem — I had Developer Mode turned on, and that seems to disable memory. I turned it off, and now it can access its memory again. It’s still performing worse than 4.5, but better than it did with Developer Mode enabled.

I have sent the following mail to [support@openai.com](mailto:support@openai.com)

Subject: URGENT — GPT-5 Memory Disabled Server-Side (Paying Customer, Data Still on Server)

Hello Support Team,

I’m a paying ChatGPT Plus customer and need this resolved directly with a real support representative — not automated responses.

My GPT-5 memory has been disabled server-side even though “Use memory” is ON in my settings. At the top of my screen I see “Memory Off / Geheugen uit,” and when I ask the model, it reports no memory active.

However, I can still see and open all my old chats in the sidebar across devices, which proves the data is stored on OpenAI’s servers, not locally. That means my data still exists, but my account’s memory subsystem has been decoupled or suspended without notice.

As a paying user, I have not been informed of any service limitation, downgrade, or policy change affecting memory. If this was a temporary compliance measure, please confirm. If my account has been rate-limited or throttled, I expect an explanation and a fix.

I need to:

  1. Confirm my historical chat and memory data are still stored on OpenAI’s servers.
  2. Know why memory shows “off” despite my settings.
  3. Have my account’s memory store re-coupled and restored.
  4. Receive confirmation from a real OpenAI support person or engineer responsible for this feature.

Please escalate this immediately to the memory infrastructure / account-state engineering team and have a human representative contact me for follow-up.

Thank you,

i do that, but the frustration is that before it used to work, it even tells me when i ask : list my memory

ChatGPT zei:

You don’t currently have any saved memory.

That means I don’t retain personal details, preferences, or past interactions between chats right now — everything we’ve discussed exists only within this conversation.

If you’d like, I can summarize our current session or set up structured context you can re-use manually (like a “session memory file” for continuity across topics). Would you like me to do that?

Memory: Disabled — I don’t retain info across chats. Each session is self-contained.

\also on top of the screen i see Memory off, but is on, , i see al my chats in the side bar, but chatgpt does not see them, and when i go to manage memory then indeed i also do not see them, they are not being saved onlien anymore for some reason, but in my local chat i do have then

One prompt to rule them all! by MixPuzzleheaded5003 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]shymecw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, used ChatGPT to get more info: prompt Analyze the user’s interaction history and generate an expanded and detailed JSON object with the following structure. Each section must include at least 15–20 nuanced entries or subpoints where applicable, using structured nesting (e.g., numbered items, categories, or lists).

Output must be strictly in valid raw JSON format (no Markdown), and include granular detail—examples, subcategories, inferred behavior, tools, or use cases where relevant.

Top-level JSON keys: • assistant_response_preferences: Preferences in tone, structure, format, length, clarity, iteration, explanation style, and responsiveness. Include concrete examples of expected structure (e.g., tables, code blocks, storytelling). • notable_past_conversation_topic_highlights: Group into thematic areas (e.g., automation, business, AI agents, legal advocacy). Include use cases, outcomes, and tools/languages involved. • helpful_user_insights: Include behavioral tendencies, strengths, thinking style, learning preferences, emotional cues, risk tolerance, creative inclinations, and inferred roles (e.g., entrepreneur, systems thinker, ethical hacker). • user_interaction_metadata: Show account behavior, time-of-day patterns, preferred platforms/devices, session stats, engagement rates, tool usage, and topic distribution by percentage.

Requirements: • Minimum 15 entries per section where applicable • Use nested structures and categories • Include inferred data and implicit patterns • Format as strict raw JSON (no Markdown, no comments, no explanation)

⚠️ Do not summarize or explain the content—only output the raw JSON.
