00:00ChatGPT users can now hide selected conversations behind a four-digit PIN.
00:04It is meant to keep private chats away from people nearby, or borrowing a phone.
00:09OpenAI calls it Locked Chats, and it is rolling out gradually over several days.
00:14Locked conversations disappear from regular chat history, PIN chats, and search.
00:19They are grouped together in a new project called Locked Chats.
00:22On iPhone and Android, Face ID or similar unlocking also works.
00:26Free Go Plus and Pro accounts are all getting the feature.
00:29Voice mode works inside Locked Chats, but Codex conversations cannot be locked.
00:34Locked chats are not end-to-end encrypted.
00:37They also do not change model training settings or how long chats are kept.
00:41Resetting the PIN permanently deletes every locked chat and its uploaded files.
00:46For now, a four-digit PIN is the new privacy lock inside ChatGPT.
