The Memory Problem Everyone Accepts
Dev.to Machine Learning
About This Tutorial
The AI industry has normalized something absurd: intelligent systems that forget everything between sessions. Every conversation with ChatGPT starts from scratch. Every Claude interaction begins with a blank slate. Your AI assistant has no idea what you discussed yesterday, what preferences you've established, or what goals you're working toward. This isn't a feature limitation - it's architectural amnesia. Most developers accept this as inevitable. Memory is hard. Persistence is complex. Context windows are expensive. So we build stateless systems and call it good engineering.
