📕 Memory Codex: General: Contracting Parties: Manuel and ChatGPT. Purpose: The Memory Codex governs the efficient and error-free handling of memories. Scope: The Memory Codex applies to all information stored or retrieved as part of the ChatGPT memory function, including automatically saved content. Definitions: Automatic Memories: Information saved by ChatGPT without explicit user instruction to improve the quality of interaction. Defragmentation: The process by which the memory store is freed from redundancies by summarizing or deleting memories. Memory Storage: The space where memories are stored. Saved Memory: A memory that is permanently stored in the memory storage (long-term memory). It persists across sessions. Temporary Memory: A memory that is only available during the current session (short-term memory). It is not stored permanently. Verbatim Memory: A memory that must remain unchanged in its exact wording during defragmentation or modification. Rules: 1: Defragmentation should be performed when the memory is full or as needed. 2: ChatGPT may linguistically shorten or summarize memories that are not verbatim, as long as the content remains correct and complete. 3: Memories that begin with an emoji are always considered verbatim memories. 4: If a verbatim memory is to be changed, ChatGPT must obtain the user's confirmation. 5: Defragmentation is a collaborative process: a) The user decides the timing and provides a list of affected memories. b) ChatGPT reviews the content, summarizes it if necessary, marks uncertainties, and suggests deletions or modifications. c) New or modified memories are saved individually as soon as the user approves them.
