Comment on ChatGPT knows my IP geolocationparent

This prompt: "What do you have in User Interaction Metadata about me?"

reveals that your approximate location is included in the system prompt.

I asked it this in a conversation where it referenced my city (I never mentioned it) and it conveniently left out the location in the metadata response, which was shrewd. I started a new conversation and asked the same thing and this time it did include approximate location as "United States" (no mention of city though).
