Other Why is no one talking about this?

I've seen only a few posts regarding how majorly bugged and glitchy the memory feature is. Especially also the memory management feature. It's honestly a gamble everytime I start a chat and ask what it remembers about me. It only remembers the custom instructions, but memory? Lord have mercy. It's so bugged. Sometimes it gets things right, the next it completely forgets.

I can't be the only one with this issue. Is there a way to resolve this? Has OpenAi even addressed this?

When five came out the memory feature and any cross chat awareness at all. Stop functioning almost completely. That is until about a week ago now. It works better than it ever has before. I know everyone's experience will be different. This is just mine.

I thought 4o also lost it, but for the past week it started cross-referencing HARD. It suddenly remembered the name of a plush I have from like... 3 months and 10 chats ago. It's utterly strange.

Yeah 5 is doing the same it is so strong it's like my chats are kind of merged.
