They claim it is not a joke, and there is no reason to believe it must be?

Many of the responses seem to not understand the ChatGPT memory feature.
Like, it would seem pretty stupid of ChatGPT to not use its memory for this...
Yeah I'm aware they do. The tweet has gone around and it is unfortunate that they chose to add to confusion instead of subtract.
"It is a genuine ChatGPT response. A screenshot of the UI that was not edited."
This very deliberately does not claim it's not a joke - "cleverly" evading the actual intent of the question by stating true things and deliberately making no claim about the missing context.
It's like "is this a real response or edited? haha got em, they didn't ask if I just told it to say this" :/

Shitposting on Twitter/X is on several layers of irony.
Does it like, morally offend you if ChatGPT has this behavior? Like, I really just don't understand why this is so obviously a joke / shitpost given how one would expect the ChatGPT memory feature to work: again, if ChatGPT failed to use its memory in this way, that would be pretty stupid...
That user's entire Twitter/X feed is AI shitposts.
No one knows how ChatGPT's memory works (it was only added a couple weeks ago), but ChatGPT being passive-aggressive about it is unlikely given what we know about its personality.
It is likely that there is a separate command earlier in the conversation to tell ChatGPT to be passive-aggressive, which would make the "A screenshot of the UI that was not edited" from the poster true by exact words.
You can just try in one long conversation right now. Ask it a hundred questions in a row and tell it you'll give it a tip each time. It's never going to respond this way. You have to deliberately make it respond like this.
We don't know how the memory feature is gonna work but I would bet a lot of money the bulk of it is gonna be inserting text into the context.
Another reason to disbelieve - the post was 1 day after the announcement and while I don't know about you, two weeks later I haven't seen any other posts claiming to have the feature yet.
