OpenAI is signaling efforts to give users more control over their conversation data.
  • Open AI lets users disable their chat histories, saying those chats will be "permanently deleted."
  • Microsoft has also taken steps to inform users about ways to review and erase search histories.
  • AI tools can improve in part based on feedback and conversations with users.

OpenAI has said that one of the ways ChatGPT gets better is through interactions with users. But as the mass experiment underway — since the AI chatbot's launch to the public last year — moves past novelty, the company has signaled it is closely considering safety and trust.
