Had Access to Memory Beta - Used It for XML - Feature Gone

[proper sentinel]

Has anybody who's gotten access to the memory feature asked it to remember XML or other formatted data?

Has anyone experienced the memory feature appearing in their ChatGPT settings and then mysteriously disappearing the next day, after its use?

Are there any guidelines on the structure or format for information we ask GPT to remember?

Seeking any answers available, please.

maybe they were just testing it, not sure if many have access to this yet?

This is exactly what a beta is meant to be. If you are testing a beta product, you should expect it to maybe go away after some time or be replaced.

So my feedback is useful or useless? Does your reply indicate that you also have lost your access?

Did you see any guidelines like I asked?

Or did you just have the general information about beta testing?

I was under the impression that testing would last longer than twelve hours.

That is not necessairly the case. Imagine that openai found a big loophole after launching the testing, thei might take down the entire feature

I'd expect more responses aligning with my experience then. The other questions?

Like are you trying to tell me that the test is over?

This was not an enlightening exchange. No need to @mention me further with solely answers that I didn't ask for, like how beta tests sometimes end. If that's what happened, great. Show me.

This wasn't helpful at all, but dismissive.

I understand your frustration and appreciate your eagerness to contribute to the development of new features, like the memory capability you've mentioned. Beta testing, by its nature, involves a lot of experimentation, and sometimes features might be temporarily available as their performance and impact are assessed. This can indeed result in features being withdrawn with little to no warning, which can be confusing and sometimes disappointing.

Your feedback is incredibly valuable, even if it feels like the feature disappeared too soon. Unexpected issues can arise, necessitating the temporary removal of a feature to address these concerns. It's not a reflection of the value of your feedback or the importance of your participation in the beta test. Each experience, like yours, provides crucial insights that help us improve.

No specific guidelines on the structure or format for information asked to be remembered by GPT during these tests has been given, as part of the exploration is to understand how users naturally interact with these features.

Let's keep this post open for further comments. If others have experienced similar issues or if this is an isolated incident, it will help us understand the situation better. Your detailed account will aid us in investigating this matter more thoroughly.

Thanks for asking to keep this open.

Your response still suggests that the beta ended. If so, was it announced or are you making this up as you go?

Frankly, I am starting to feel gaslit, here, because I don't think you have any real insights into this, but conjecture and broad assumptions.

But I do genuinely appreciate your engagement that there's been no guidance on the feature's limitations.

I am not saying that it ended. What I meant to say is that the features can go away, and also only for some users. I am not saying that I know. However, what I can say, is that what happend to you is not necessairly an error, and might instead be part of the process. Not that it is for sure the case, that's why I think we can keep this open for discussion.

[proper sentinel]

So should I be looking for evidence that it ended early or not?

[thorn halo]

Not in my opinion

Thanks for the exchange.
