# What is Temporary Chat (ChatGPT)?

A ChatGPT conversation that isn't saved to history, doesn't load or write Memory entries, and isn't used for training. Useful for one-off sensitive tasks, testing 'no-memory' behavior, or anything you don't want shaping future responses. Set via the conversation menu in the ChatGPT UI. The conversation persists only as long as the tab is open.
