I said I clean up chats weekly, but honestly, I also delete small or casual ones right after they’re done. So the “weekly cleanup” takes maybe a minute total.

I think whether to keep chats depends on your goal. I use AI mainly as a tool for work or quick problem-solving, so I don’t need to preserve long conversations. But if someone uses AI more like a friendly companion, I totally get why they’d want to keep the history.

When I get a really good answer, I save that text elsewhere and still delete the chat. That’s why my ChatGPT sidebar rarely has more than about 20 chats.

I think you have a very valuable ability, which is always being able to distinguish what excellent answers are.

Sometimes I miss it, and when I go back to look, I almost can't find it back.
