Understand this story
OpenAI has launched a chat lock feature for ChatGPT. Users can set a four-digit PIN code, and on supported devices they can also use Face ID or Touch ID to protect sensitive conversations. Locked conversations are moved to a separate section, isolated from regular chat history, pinned conversations, and search results; when memory is enabled, locked conversations have their own separate memory space. The feature is being rolled out gradually to Free, Go, Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu users. The report also notes that the feature does not enable end-to-end encryption and does not change data retention periods. There are currently no subsequent developments.
