Sure, but I still think calling it “memories” is a reach and a bit disingenuous. It’s not remembering anything. It’s re-reading it will the every run, making it appears as if it has remembered. Calling it “reminders” or something else I think would me more appropriate.

The “memories” terminology comes from the big AI companies and they are doing everything in their power to make AI seem smarter than it actually is. A lot of reporters in media has a hard time understanding this as well and will report on AI as having it’s “own thoughts” and “making own decisions”.

ChatGPT breaches confinement because their engineers are stupid. Not because of some self determination to fuck with us or our infrastructure. OpenAI are responsible and let it happen. Same with Anthropic.

In the end an AI is a dumb computer program that only know and does what we tell it to do.
