Comment on Agent memory as a file formatparent

Comments

Memory isn’t the same thing as rag it’s usually just a text based index of past events and the llm reads it and decides what’s important rather than querying a db

Sounds like RAG to me.

How does it sound like rag exactly? Rag queries a database and injects the results memory doesn’t do this

"text based index" is just another way of saying "database".

No it isn’t? There is no database and no querying for specific words. An llm reads a big ass block of text and determines if any of those lines are applicable, that is nothing like a database being queried

i think you are confusing database with something like mysql
