A Reddit user found that OpenAI's Dot referenced details from ChatGPT conversations they had completely deleted, with memory off and no trace in personalization records. Dot itself admitted the content was "provided to me in this session" and couldn't explain why deleted chats still reached it, only promising not to use those topics again. The post raises serious privacy questions about OpenAI's data retention practices.
