Vaibhav (VB) Srivastav(@reach_vb):QoL upgrade for ChatGPT side chats! they no longer expire or disappear after a restart or update. faster to open, better at talking to the main chat, fewer failed tool calls and clearer activity. archive or delete them on their own or with the main chat, or ask ChatGPT to clean up.
