Apple paid Google ~$1B/yr to license memory for Siri. OpenAI rebuilt ChatGPT memory in place. Anthropic gave models an API to consolidate their own. All called "memory." None is what users mean. @jimbobbennett.dev wrote a field map: arize.com/blog/memory...
This week the field shipped four kinds of memory, and Apple paid Google a billion dollars a year for one of them. None of the four is what the demos imply. A field map of what's actually shipping, and the missing primitive that sits between the buckets.
When an agent fails, have you considered looking at the harness?
The loop around the model decides how tasks are decomposed, how tools are called, how context is managed, how errors are recovered from, and what gets traced.
Laurie Voss explains why harnesses are replacing agent frameworks.
