Currently, if you disable chat history, you'll see this message:

Chat History is off for this browser. When history is turned off, new chats on this browser won't appear in your history on any of your devices, be used to train our models, or stored for longer than 30 days. This setting does not sync across browsers or devices.

It's absolutely insane to trust that they won't do this.
No it's not. If they explicitly say they won't train on your data and then they do, it's going to come out in discovery of one of the lawsuits they're fighting, and the consequences would be significant. Plus there's little incentive for them to lie about it, given most people leave history on.
yeah because no large tech company has ever lied to their customers about how their data is being handled. oh wait there are lawsuits surrounding this sort of thing all the time.
I wouldn't trust them with nuclear secrets, but to say it's "insane" to trust that they're going to do what they explicitly say they're going to do just isn't logical.

They hide this link a bit. They completed my opt-out request in about ten minutes and at least claim to be not using any of my data going forward for training.

I didn't lose any features like Chat History
