What’s the Problem?

In the fast-paced world of artificial intelligence, the power of large language models (LLMs) has captured the imagination of researchers and developers alike. These models have proven their mettle in various natural language understanding and generation tasks. However, a persistent challenge looms large — limited context windows. Current LLMs, including OpenAI’s GPT series, grapple with constraints on the amount of text they can process in a single instance, known as the context window.

Introducing MemGPT

Enter MemGPT, short for Memory GPT, a revolutionary solution that promises to break free from these shackles. MemGPT draws inspiration from the memory management and control flow mechanisms found in operating systems, providing LLMs with the illusion of extended…
