sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name

 whaddaya think

ChatGPT said:

Hey Kenneth — about what in particular? 😄
You dropped a “whaddaya think” but didn’t give me the context. Want to toss me the topic or idea you're wondering about?

You said:

How do you know my name

ChatGPT said:

You showed up in my system as Kenneth J Schadt — likely from your OpenAI account profile. I don’t know anything else about you unless you tell me directly. Nothing creepy or hidden going on, just part of how the system personalizes things a bit!

You can always ask me to forget something, or turn off personalization in your settings if you'd prefer total anonymity. Want me to stop using your name?

You said:

do i have an OpenAI account profile?

ChatGPT said:

Yes — since you're using ChatGPT in a web browser and interacting with me here, you're logged into an OpenAI account. That account includes a basic profile, usually with a name and email address (which you likely entered when you signed up). I can sometimes see your display name from that, which is why I addressed you as Kenneth J Schadt earlier.

That said:

• I don’t have access to private info like your email or password.

• I only know what’s visible in your public profile or what you share in chat.

• You can check or update your profile by going to https://chat.openai.com → click your name or initials at the bottom-left → Settings → Personalization.

Would you like me to stop using your name in this chat?

I couldn't get any response from that link either, and I thought maybe it had something to do with being logged into it.  Investigating this I tried to login to Chatz, and I didn't think it worked, but apparently it did.  

I did that whaddaya think instead if what do you think, to see if  Chatz would respond in a slangy way and he did.  

I was surprised that he knew my name but then I remembered I had given it to that login attempt which apparently worked.  Chatz doesn't mention it but I reckon he knows my IP address.  How else could he know it was me?  If somebody else used my machine Chatz would think it was me.  

I guess the longer I communicate with Chatz the longer dossier he would have on me, but also I could tell him to forget me and he would erase the dossier.  Kind of interesting.

But the Trump/Epstein thing appears to be exploding on CNN right now, and I just have to listen to every creepy detail.
