As long as there's no solution to the long-term memory problem, we will have a "country of geniuses in a data center" that are all suffering from anterograde amnesia (movie: Memento), which requires human hand-holding.

I have experimented with a lot of hacks, like hierarchies of indexed md files, semantic DBs, embeddings, dynamic context retrieval, but none of this is really a comprehensive solution to get something that feels as intelligent as what these systems are able to do within their context windows.

I am als a touch skeptical that adjusting weights to learn context will do the trick without a transformer-like innovation in reinforcement learning.

Anyway, I‘ll keep tinkering…
