I know it's a meme, but the idea that transformers models 'remember' anything is a common misconception.

They have zero memory. When you submit a prompt, it feeds your entire chat history as one big prompt and... forgets it immediately, with no impact on the model itself. It's like its frozen in time, and copied, unfrozen, and thrown away every time it answers.

Yeah, yeah, let's see how Google will achieve more memory with their new Titan architecture

It's still ephemeral, chats don't change the underlying language model, but yes it's interesting.
