Temporary chats

A temporary chat is not saved to your history. It does not appear in the sidebar, it never turns up in search, it cannot be bookmarked, and it is deleted automatically once its retention period ends.

Use one for a quick experiment, a sensitive question, or anything you simply do not need to keep.

Starting one

Turn on Temporary chat from the model menu at the top of a new chat. While it is on, an indicator sits at the top of the screen so you always know the conversation is not being kept.

Switch it off, or start a new chat, to go back to normal.

Temporary is not invisible

A temporary chat is still processed like any other message and may still be retained in your organisation’s logs for security and billing. It means “not kept in your history”, not “off the record”. If a question would be a problem in an email, it is a problem here.
