A You do You

We discuss the critical need for artificial intelligence (AI) to possess long-term memory, moving beyond the current "stateless" nature of many chatbots that forget information between interactions. It highlights the significant costs and inefficiencies associated with AI's short memory, likening it to a perpetually amnesiac colleague who requires constant re-explanation. The article introduces Contextual Memory Intelligence (CMI) as a solution, which aims to integrate continuous memory into AI architectures, allowing systems to remember, organize, and utilize past information. Examples like MemoryBank, LongMem, and MemInsight illustrate current advancements in building persistent AI memory. Ultimately, the text argues that AI with long-term memory will transform into more effective, trustworthy, and personalized partners, capable of fostering continuity, reflection, and auditability in various applications.

A quirky, joyful queer love story about a lonely museum worker who falls in love with a statue of Venus

Rika Horauchi’s new part-time job is to converse with a statue of Venus – in Latin – every Monday, when the museum is closed.

Initially reluctant, Rika starts to enjoy her strange new job. Recommended by her old university professor for her exemplary language skills, Rika leads an otherwise unassuming life, working the rest of the week in a frozen-food warehouse.

As Venus comes to life in the quiet of the museum, they talk about everything. Venus opens up new worlds for Rika, both intellectually and emotionally. They soon fall in love. But when the museum’s curator, Hashibami, makes it clear he wants to keep Venus for himself, what will Rika do?

When the Museum is Closed is by turns charming, funny and surprising, a surreal take on our most real emotions and concerns: love, loneliness, freedom, perceptions of beauty and how women are seen in society. A joyful queer love story, this fresh and original new novel confirms Emi Yagi as one of the most exciting Japanese writers published in English today.
