For a bit now ChatGPT has been able to reference your entire chat history. It was one of the biggest and most substantial improvements to the product in its history in my opinion. I'm sure we'll continue to see improvements in this feature over time, but your first item here is already partially addressed (maybe fully).

I completely agree on the third item. Carefully tuned pushback is something that even today's most sophisticated models are not very good at. They are simply too sycophantic. A great human professional therapist provides value not just by listening to their client and offering academic insights, but more specifically by knowing exactly when and how to push back -- sometimes quite forcefully, sometimes gently, sometimes not at all. I've never interacted with any LLM that can approach that level of judgment -- not because they lack the fundamental capacity, but because they're all simply trained to be too agreeable right now.
