News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Can't wait for the day where it makes sense to export all my ChatGPT history and import it into Google's competition product in order for them to customize my experience.

At this point Google is offering nothing which comes close to ChatGPT, Bard is a laughing stock compared to it. But I don't doubt that Google will catch up and then offer a better experience.

The only thing OpenAI has from me is that (valuable) chat history (and the monthly subscription money), so I wouldn't have any problems with moving away from them once they are no longer in the unique position they're currently in. This is different with Google, which has several orders of magnitude more data about me and which they also do manage for me.

I'm concerned that it's only a matter of time until OpenAi gets hacked and some of the user account's data gets leaked.

There’s already been hacks with 100k user account data leaked: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/over-100-000-...

OpenAI says it was an issue with the user devices not their service, though.

What's the actual big gain of having history? I have it enabled as well and I sometimes jump back into old chats but it's mostly not so useful.

the big gain is for long running queries. i had to refactor a big codebase and i went back to the same conversation numerous times over the course of a month. of course it would sometimes lose context, but having it all in the same place made things very easy for me.
