OpenAI has officially launched new memory tools for ChatGPT, allowing persistent instructions and task recall across sessions. Users can now define preferences (like tone or format) and expect the assistant to remember and apply them automatically.

For chatbot and AI tool creators, this is a major usability upgrade. It moves assistants closer to being true long-term helpers, making them more efficient in repeat workflows like onboarding, project tracking, or customer support. [15th May 2025]
