"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

In my experience, it seems to be limited to previous conversations, and it may be limited in length.
I pretty regularly delete old conversations, partly with the guide of privacy which I am sure does not actually delete or exist, but also for my own sanity of looking back on projects. And I don't even use AI that much, it's all free tier, mostly Claude.
That said, it will often get "lobotomized" and "forget" things after I delete the source conversation.
It does remember basic things. Like I use it a lot to help set up Docker containers, so it knows I have a Linux machine and a webserver and a Windows Machine. It knows the Linux box runs Docker and is named Squall. It knows these sort of, generic things, even across conversations. I can open a new chat and say "I want to set up a Wordpress sandbox" and it will ask like "Would you like to use Docker on Squall or run it outside a container with Apache."
