YOUR PROJECT AND YOUR LEARNING

Build it.
Learn to judge it.

Keep a preference under your control

Illustrative example · You bring your own task.

  1. 01 / YOUR TASK

    Save a preference for short reports, then start a new session.

  2. 02 / EXAMPLE RESULT

    The agent retrieves the preference for the right task; you can correct or delete it.

  3. 03 / YOUR CHECK

    Change the preference, test again, then delete it and check that it is no longer retrieved.

What you’ll learn to do

Decide what to remember, verify retrieval, and check that corrections and deletions take effect.

How you’ll check your learning

Use fresh sessions and changed inputs to test memory boundaries and compare results with and without memory.
