βπ¦ ai that works
βA weekly conversation about how we can all get the most juice out of todays models with @hellovai & @dexhorthy

βWe've all heard a lot about memory. There are some useful abstractions out there that help you bootstrap memory quickly and add it to agents, but at the end of the day, you may want to open the black box and tune things yourself. Without a deep understanding of all the options for memory and how these tools are architected, its hard to weight the tradeoffs outside of basic vibe checks.
βIn this episode, we'll build a recipe for AI agents that explores a few different memory techniques and how you can build an open-box implementation that you can tune and customize over time.
βPre-reading
βTo prevent repeating the basics, we recommend you come in having already understanding some of the tooling we will be using:
βDiscord
βCursor (A vscode replacement)
βProgramming languages
βApplication Logic: Python or Typescript or Go
βPrompting: BAML (recommend video)
