Latest update (11-11 21:05): Author argues AI memory must connect distant, unexpected relationships, not just retrieve

Overview: A writer argues that AI memory has to connect distant, unexpected relationships that nobody tagged in advance, not only retrieve stored items. In a post on X, the writer says a memory of a 43-year-old movie suddenly linked to an AI-safety question. The post cites Mirendil's Fern 0.1, which has a 10 million token context window, but says it scores 51 percent on multi-fact questions at that length. The author estimates his archive of roughly 10,000 documents and 3 GB contains hundreds of millions of tokens.
