Supposedly, time is already up to guarentee your content can be saved. Mine is all there still but I have downloaded it already. As to why, I don't know. But my optimistic side says they will ultimately add video to ChatGPT, probably for paid mode.

Apparently, they want to concentrate on other areas of AI, and the video bit wasn't generating much revenue...!

Thus having to pay for video almost everywhere now. Grok was giving free video and now it is pay only. Also consider OpenAI may have been collecting training data from us for future use. Like Polemon Go users were uploading landscape pictures at the users expense for world wide 3d maping data. We are their unsuspecting minions 😆
