You’re probably pretty far from the average user, who thinks “AI is so dumb” because it doesn’t remember what you told it yesterday.

I was thinking more people would be annoyed by it bringing up unrelated conversations, thinking more I'd say you're probably right that more people are expecting it to remember everything they say.

It’s not that it brings it up in unrelated conversations, it’s that it nudges related conversations in unwanted directions.

Mostly because they built the feature and so that implicitly means they think it's cool.

I recommend turning it off because it makes the models way more sycophantic and can drive them (or you) insane.
