Hey everyone

I’m a paid Genspark user and I’ve been running into two issues recently. Wanted to check if anyone else is experiencing the same.

1. Edit and copy buttons completely gone

About 12 hours ago, I noticed the two icons at the bottom right of my sent messages - the edit button and the copy button - both disappeared at the same time. And it’s not just old messages. Even a message I just sent, like literally just hit send and stop, no edit button. Can’t edit anything at all. If I want to copy something I sent, I have to manually highlight and copy it.

Before this, I could go back and edit any old message no problem - even messages from days ago with dozens of messages after them. Super useful when I needed to fix an instruction or change direction from an earlier point in a long conversation.

2. Context getting compressed way earlier, AI keeps forgetting things

This one has been going on for about 10 days now. The AI forgets what I said earlier in the conversation, misunderstands context, and the conversation gets compacted way sooner than before. I used to be able to work in a long chat and the AI would keep track of everything just fine. Now it doesn’t take long before I see the compact notification, and after that the AI basically forgets everything.

Someone on Reddit described the exact same thing:
 https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark_ai/comments/1vijy1f/ai_chat_context_got_way_worse_in_the_last_2_days/

And there was an earlier post where someone analyzed this with a tokenizer and found that Genspark compresses context way before the model’s actual limit - for example DeepSeek V4 Pro supports 1 million tokens but Genspark starts compressing at around 100k, so only 1/10 of the context window is actually used. A Genspark employee (u/alli-genspark) replied to that post and confirmed it’s a “product tradeoff around cost and performance” - not a bug:
 https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark_ai/comments/1tymiqy/why_is_there_no_information_anywhere_about_chat/

Why this is frustrating

This isn’t the first time Genspark has quietly cut things back. Looking at the pattern:

First, AI Chat and AI Image were advertised as “unlimited” for Plus/Pro users. Then session rate limits were silently introduced - use too much and you get locked out for 5 hours. A lot of people have reported this, including annual subscribers who got hit with limits mid-contract with no warning:
 https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark_ai/comments/1sdqmtq/genspark_unlimited_chat_is_anything_but_hit_with/
 https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark_ai/comments/1skw316/annual_subscriber_here_service_became_unusable/

Then context compression got more aggressive. And now the edit and copy buttons are gone too. Overall the experience has gotten significantly worse compared to when I first subscribed - while the subscription itself isn’t exactly cheap either.

I get that Genspark needs to manage API costs. But paying users should get what they’re paying for. Silently cutting things back over and over without any communication is really hard to accept.

To the Genspark team (if you’re reading this)

I know you guys are active on this subreddit so I’ll just ask directly: are the missing edit/copy buttons and the earlier context compression bugs or intentional changes? If they’re bugs, is there a plan to fix them? If they’re intentional, I’d really appreciate it if you could reconsider and find a more reasonable approach for paid users.

Anyone else?

Curious if others have noticed:

• Can you still see the edit and copy buttons on your sent messages?
• Is the AI forgetting context earlier than before?
• Any known Genspark update recently that might explain these changes?

Thanks!

As per the title, I am looking into subbing for the reasons below:

1. Working with slides and docs
2. Image generation & videos to work as demos
3. Market research and brainstorming (I currently use notion for that, but notion has been a pain so far)

However, I’ve seen mixed reviews and sincerely looking forward to genuine feedback for you guys

TIA

I’m Jaeyong Choi (최재용) from South Korea, and I’m currently active as a Genspark Genius Ambassador.

I also serve as President of the Korea Genspark AI Research Association, where we explore practical ways to use Genspark, Generative AI, and AI Agents in real-world environments.

Our main focus is not just learning new AI tools, but figuring out how AI agents can actually improve:

• Education and training

• Business productivity

• Public-sector workflows

• Research and consulting

• Content creation

• AI-powered automation

I believe we’re moving from the era of simply “using AI” toward an era where people design, manage, and collaborate with AI agents.

One principle guides much of my work:

“Go beyond knowing AI — turn AI Agents into real-world results.”

I’d love to connect with other Genspark users, AI educators, researchers, and agentic AI enthusiasts around the world.

How are you currently using Genspark or AI agents in your work?

I’d be especially interested in hearing about practical use cases that have genuinely saved time or improved results.

Taking meeting minutes is probably one of the parts of my workflow I enjoy the least, so I’ve been experimenting with using AI to cut down on the manual work.

The useful part for me isn’t just getting a transcript. I’m more interested in whether it can reliably pull out decisions, action items, and the main discussion points without needing a lot of cleanup afterward.

For anyone already using AI as part of their meeting workflow, how much of the note-taking process have you actually been able to automate? Curious what’s worked well and what still needs a human pass.

Hey everyone, Genspark Plus user here. I use AI Chat daily with Claude Sonnet 4.6/Opus 4.6 mostly for research, project planning, outlining docs, that kind of stuff.

Up until like 2-3 days ago everything was fine. I could upload 10+ Word/PDF files, each around 50-100 pages, work through them in one chat session, no problems. The AI remembered everything, I could go deep into the material and keep asking follow-ups across multiple documents. Totally normal.

Then something changed. Now I upload ONE Word file, about 50 pages, and I immediately get "Compressing our conversation to conserve context, may take a few minutes..." Like right at the start, not after a long conversation. Just the first file and boom, compressing.

And then as I keep working it keeps hitting me with "For better performance, previous chat history has been compacted" over and over. After that the AI basically loses track of the document content. Gives vague answers, wrong details, can't recall stuff it literally just read. It's night and day compared to last week when the exact same workflow was smooth.

Nothing changed on my end. Same plan, same models, same file types, same workflow. So something definitely changed on Genspark's side.

I saw some older posts about this; like this one breaking down how Genspark compresses way before the model's actual context limit (https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark\_ai/comments/1tymiqy/why\_is\_there\_no\_information\_anywhere\_about\_chat/) and this one about limits getting progressively worse (https://www.reddit.com/r/genspark\_ai/comments/1tj9pwa/ai\_chat\_limit\_suggestion\_issues/). But what I'm experiencing now is way worse than what those posts described. Feels like the context window got cut significantly.

So Genspark team if you're reading this: did the context allocation for AI Chat get reduced recently? Is this intentional or a bug? Any plans to fix it?

Because honestly this is a dealbreaker for me. The whole point of using Genspark AI Chat for my work is handling large documents in long research sessions. If that's gone I need to know so I can move on.

Anyone else noticing the same thing in the last few days? Would love to know if it's just me or widespread.
