ChatGPT Introduces Chat Locking Feature for Enhanced Privacy
ChatGPT introduces a chat locking feature allowing users to secure conversations with PINs, Face ID, or Touch ID, separating them from regular chat history. The feature doesn't provide end-to-end encryption but offers enhanced privacy for sensitive discussions.
The company says the feature is designed for situations where users might be discussing something personal or planning a surprise and want to keep those conversations private when handing their device to friends or family to show them something in another chat.
