I'm personally confident that OpenAI doesn't permanently "remember" every piece of text it that is fed into it.

Unfortunately, because OpenAI are extremely vague about how they use input to their models to influence future training runs I can't distribute my own personal confidence level here to other people.

I believe they retain every "conversation" in your account, purely for your convenience (not for training), manually review exchanges that flag their moderation filters, and retain replies that you press the feedback buttons on (like/dislike).

The moderation filters are (or at least were back in 2022) activated by the client, which is hilarious.

They have two things:

A toggle for using the data for training, with it off it is not used for further training.

A temporary chat, which is not used for training and is deleted after 30 days.

They could be lying about either, but you either trust their T&Cs or you don’t.
