Why AI Memory Is Already Breaking
About this video
AI memory is the next bottleneck, and it's already breaking. In this video, we uncover why long-context hype hides a harsh reality: recall accuracy drops below 50%, agents forget, and costs explode. Learn what labs are racing to solve and why the context window is not memory.
