No, ChatGPT doesn’t have memory loss… it has a context window. Have you ever felt like ChatGPT forgets what you just said? Gets dumber the longer you talk? Starts hallucinating and making up stuff? There’s a reason for that, and it’s one of the weirdest things about how AI works. In this video, I’ll break down what a context window is and how it limits what AI can remember. Grab some coffee, and prepare to unravel your AI’s goldfish brain.
