Leaving memory enabled risks introducing bias and baggage from past chats and experiences that are better off being left behind. It however then becomes my responsibility to tell ChatGPT everything it needs to know in every chat.

Note that there are other sources of bias besides memory. For example, for each Custom GPT, an OpenAI staff Karens looks to type up and insert custom instructions that apply with a higher priority, and often are detrimental to the output, thereby sabotaging the Custom GPT. It would be better off if they didn't do any of it. I have had multiple Custom GPTs that initially worked flawlessly get sabotaged by OpenAI in this way.
