I reported this race condition via ChatGPT's internal feedback system after I saw other user's chat titles loading on my sidebar a couple of times (around 7-8 w

  same to my. actually only the summary of the history was from a different user. the content itself was mine.

    The claim made at the time was that the titles were not from other people and were in fact caused by the model hallucinating after the input query timed out (or something like that). Obviously that sounds a little suspect now, but it might be true.

      That's a lie if so, if you look at the Reddit threads there's no way those were not specific other users histories as they had the logical history of reading browser history. Eg, one I saw had stuff like "what is X", then the next would be "How to X" or something. Some were all in Japanese, others all in Chinese. If it was random you wouldn't see clear logical consistency across the list.

  The explanation at the time was that unavailable chat data (due to, e.g. high load) resulted in a null input sometimes being presented to the chat summary system, which in turn caused the system to hallucinate believable chat titles. It's possible that they misdiagnosed the issue or that both bugs were present and they caught the benign one before the serious one.

    Yeah I was surprised that the bug appeared simply using the app normally. My first thought is that it was data from other user loading so I reported immediately that it looked like a race condition. But maybe it was this other bug you mention.
