alt Hacker News"Forking" or "branching" (probably better received outside of SWEs) a conversation really ought to be a first class feature of ChatGPT et Al.

This was part of ChatGPT from pretty much the beginning, maybe not the initial version but few weeks later- don't recall exactly

This has been in ChatGPT from pretty early on? Just edit any prompt, it creates a new branch, and you can switch back and forth.

It is!
It exists in Claude as a true branch - you can see the old threads - and in ChatGPT as without the history.
Edit a previous reply and hit “go” to see it in action.
It is in Google Gemini, which I really hate to say - but I've been using a lot more than GPT. I reckon I'll be cancelling my Pro if Gemini stays with this lead for my everyday workflows.
