I’ve found the interaction between memory and sycophancy to be a major issue. I was trying to help deal with a difficult and confusing medical issue, and based on some lab tests, GPT had determined it was likely condition X. I had also asked a lot of questions about the treatment of condition X. After some follow up tests, it was clear that it wasn’t condition X, but it was extremely difficult to get ChatGPT to give up on it, even with deleting old chats and starting new ones, even changing the name of the patient. Starting in a private chat worked, but then it gets deleted when you close the window.
