> Each chatbot has unlimited memory capacity, enabling seamless interaction with large files such as a 400-page PDF. How is this possible? Do they do fancy tricks at inference?

I've scanned the codebase and IMO the statement is mostly misleading. I think LangChain agents (which this is a thin wrapper around) do have some default compression/reranking behavior to help fit relevant context into the context window, but it's very, very, very far from actually infinite short-term memory.

I think the framing where the statement could be considered true is if you assume "memory = persistent storage", which is IMO not what most people will do.

Note: I'm not trying to imply the authors are being intentionally misleading.

If I understand what this tool is doing, there is an important security caveat.

>providing PDF files, websites, and soon, integrations with platforms like Notion, Confluence, and Office 365.

Means that anything you feed this ChatBot, gets turned into data that's uploaded to OpenAI. So if you're using an internal Confluence, consider all that data public now. We've already seen intranet pages show up on ChatGPT/OpenAI in the past.

The OpenAI API does not use the data for training.

This simply isn't the case and people need to stop repeating it without doing some research first.

The research was seeing intranet sites cited by OpenAI. So maybe someone copied and pasted it into the web interface. Maybe the big multi-national firms had their intranet exposed to the internet. I don't know how it got there; heck, no one may know.
