The memory feature of ChatGPT is basically like a human taking notes. Of course, the AI can also use other documents as reference. This technique is called RAG. -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retrieval-augmented_generation

Sidenote. This isn't the place to ask technical questions about AI. It's like asking your friendly neighborhood evangelical about evolution.

If Technology isn't the correct place to ask technical questions then why not provide a good source instead of whatever that is?

I think, for a lot of people, technology has come to mean a few websites, or companies.

There are a few lemmy communities dedicated to AI, but they are very inactive. Basically, I'd have to send you to Reddit.
