The OpenAI ChatGPT app on macOS is not sandboxed and stores all the conversations in **plain-text** in a non-protected location:
~/Library/Application\ Support/com.openai.chat/conve…{uuid}/
So basically any other running app / process / malware can read all your ChatGPT conversations without any permission prompt.”

Update:OpenAI released an updated ChatGPT app to encrypt chats stored on the Mac. Make sure you update your ChatGPT app to the latest version…
