This is a ridiculous sentence. Of course inference-only AI forgets. You can literally just program it that way.

In fact, it's human transcribers who chose whether to forget the details of a case or whether to share the details of an especially funny patient with their buddies at the bar.

But in this case they’re actively being told by the hospital not to use AI due to privacy concerns so it seems unlikely that it’s been programmed to respect privacy doesn’t it

Sending data to OpenAI to train a new model on does not feel like it constitutes 'AI doesn't forget'. The AI has nothing to do with the thousands of other companies storing your data for various reasons.

You can program a harness to always send a MEMORY.md file like OpenClaw, or use Vector Stores like OpenAI does, or find some other implementation of 'memory', but these are not an inherent feature of 'AI'. Quite the opposite...the LLMs we currently see will never learn or adapt by themselves, they don't touch their own weights
