ChatGPT chat-locking feature announcement drives tech/AI keyword relevance.
Context
What happened: OpenAI announced Locked Chats for ChatGPT, letting users move conversations out of regular history into a protected space opened with a PIN, and on supported mobile devices with Face ID, Touch ID, or the device screen lock.
Key numbers: Four-digit PIN. Rolling out gradually to Free, Go, Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Edu plans.
Why it matters: Resetting the account PIN permanently deletes locked chats, while changing the PIN preserves them. Messages sent to the locked vault will not update the memory of regular chats.
