AI False Memory Demonstration

This project explores how AI chat applications handle memory through two different implementations: a traditional chat with persistent memory and an experimental chat where memories can be manipulated in real-time.

Overview

• memory-chat: A traditional chat application with persistent memory storage
• false-memory-chat: An experimental chat where memory can be altered during conversations

Quick Start

GitHub Codespaces

This project is optimized for GitHub Codespaces, providing a pre-configured environment with all necessary dependencies.

Manual installation

1. Clone the repository

2. Install Python dependencies

   pip install

API Integration

This project integrates with GitHub Models, making it immediately usable for GitHub users:

• No API key required
• Authentication handled through GitHub
• Automatic endpoint configuration

False Memory Chat

The false-memory-chat demonstrates how AI memory can be manipulated in real-time, allowing for exploration of how context affects AI responses.

Running the False Memory Chat

python false_memory_chat.py

Real-time Memory Manipulation

1. Start the chat application
2. Open chat_memory.json in your preferred editor
3. Modify the conversation history:

   [
     {"role": "user", "content": "What's your favorite color?"},
     {"role": "assistant", "content": "I love blue!"},
     // Add or modify messages while chat is running
   ]

4. Changes take effect in the next interaction

Available Commands

• history: Display current chat history
• count: Show number of messages in memory
• exit: Close the application

Traditional Memory Chat

The memory-chat demonstrates conventional chat memory implementation where conversation history is maintained internally during the session.

Running the Memory Chat

python memory_chat.py
