Data privacy is one of the major concerns these days. We have to choose between keeping our data safe or being able to use the latest technology, such as AI, for our work. OpenAI’s popular generative AI, ChatGPT, now comes with a new mode that allows you to use the AI platform without having your conversations recorded or used for training. In this guide, we will discuss four ways you can use ChatGPT in Incognito mode.
Steps to Use ChatGPT in Incognito Mode with Training Mode Off
ChatGPT is a tool known for improving its responses over time. Its language model is trained using chats from users like you and me. Any conversation you have had with the AI tool is recorded, stored, and used to train to improve upon its existing model. To keep your data private, here are a few ways how you can go incognito on the OpenAI tool.
Method 1 – With Temporary Chat Mode on ChatGPT
You can follow these steps to use the Temporary Chat mode on ChatGPT for the “private” chats you need to have with the AI tool.
1. Log in to your account and visit their official ChatGPT page.
2. Head to the dropdown menu and click on “ChatGPT‘ to expand a list.
3. Locate “Temporary Chat” and toggle to enable this feature. You will see a pop-up box listing the features of the temporary chat.
4. With the feature enabled, none of your conversations in this ChatGPT chat window will be stored.
Method 2 – Using Perplixity’s Incognito Mode
If you’re looking for an alternative to ChatGPT, Perplexity AI is your tool. It has an Incognito Mode available for both free and pro subscriptions and can be used by the steps below.
1. Go to the Perplexity AI page and log into your account.
2. On the left panel, click on your account next to the settings icon. A dropdown menu will appear, with a new Incognito mode available to choose from.
4. Click on the “Incognito” option to enable the Incognito mode. You will now be able to chat with the AI privately without worrying about your data being tracked or stored.
Method 3 – Turn off Content Training in ChatGPT
If you don’t want any and all of your chats to be recorded and used, you can disable it in the settings. To do so, you can follow these steps as under.
1. On the ChatGPT start page, go to the top right corner to access Account drop-down menu.
2. Next, click on “Settings” and then go to “Data Controls.” in the left menu.
3. Click the “Improve the model for everyone” to open a pop-up dialogue box.
