you just explained how human memory works and i thought about implementing that in a future model that allows for more max input tokens. the further back the text, the more it goes through a "summarize this text: ..." prompt. GPT4 has 28k Token limit, so it has the brain of a cat maybe, but future models will have more max. tokens and might be able to have a human like memory that gets worse the older the memory is.

Alternatives are maybe architectures using langchain or toolformer to retrieve "memories" from a database by smart fuzzy search. But that's worse, because reasoning would only be done on that context, instead of all memories it ever had.
