This may or may not be the best place to post this. This is two fold: 1) to share how I use the AI Assistant and 2) a request. I use the AI Assistant frequently, anywhere from giving me ideas for posts to what my next drawing should be based on a review of my art or "what is my niche". It is a great tool I use almost everyday.

Yesterday, I uploaded an image I had another AI platform generate for a potential reference photo for a drawing. I then uploaded it using the AI Assistant asking it to evaluate the composition. Good news is that the platform flagged the image as AI. Unfortunately, any image uploaded using the Assistant appear in "My Artwork". That is not my intent and I usually immediately delete. I often will upload an actual photo for the same reason.

So, the request is, can there be separation between using the AI assistant in this way and not have the image appear in My Artwork? I would like to control when I upload a new drawing to My Artwork and not have trial images, reference photos, etc appears there. Maybe there is a reason behinds the scense for not doing this?? Thank you!

(even better is if the Assistant could "see" previous chats/topics and recall those discussions as part of a new discussion.)

From your Profile button - top right - there's a 'Feedback' option in the drop-down menu. Some of us asked that ArtHelper be able to look at contents of specific folder, and they've given us that.
We could ask them to mark a specific folder as 'Private' so it doesn't show up in My Artwork.
You can delete conversations in the Assistant. I'm doing that all the time to keep contents and their helpful suggestions under control.

ArtHelper, like other AI, does keep track of past conversations to inform new answers. Try referring the the past conversations or open the conversation and enter your new query.

Thank you Tom. I like the idea of a "private" folder for images that we do not want to appear in My Artwork. I will provide that feedback too. I do use the Delete and Rename options, but when multitasking I often forget. As far as AI referring to past conversation, I will either add to the past conversation or paste part of what I want into a new conversation. It sounds like you use the Assistant often as well. Thanks again!

Hi there! The fact that you're using the Assistant daily for everything from post ideas to niche discovery to composition checks is exactly the kind of workflow it was built for, and it's genuinely useful feedback to hear how you're stretching it.

The flag you're raising makes total sense. Using the Assistant as a reference and evaluation space is a different use case than uploading finished work, and images uploaded for that purpose (especially ones the platform correctly caught as not human-made) shouldn't bleed into your portfolio or artwork areas. That's a real workflow gap.

I'm flagging this for the product team. Appreciate you laying out both the "here's how I use it" context and the specific friction point, that combination is way more actionable than a bare feature request.

Another thought I had, is to have the option to Name, Save, and Delete/Cancel a chat after you are done with a topic. This would hlep with management of the growing list. Still have the ability to delete and/or add to on, but have these additonal options on the front end.
