Hey @behnamoh, maybe you are referring to the community post pre-release? It is still very much live here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37894403!
As we released MemGPT this morning (including discord bot, and on Twitter), we took the community feedback to emphasize more on the context length in the title :) Thank you all for the feedback and keep it coming - we are listening!

It’s not suspicious, the previous title calling it an operating system was extremely incorrect and intentionally misleading to generate buzz. Aka clickbait.

The previous title used Operating System as an analogy to describe a novel concept. OS ideas were referenced in the paper to help the reader understand their new creation. If you're not that smart and not good at abstract thinking then of course it would only confuse you.

Please don't cross into personal attack, no matter how wrong someone is or you feel they are. It only makes things worse.

I had already edited my comment to make it non-personal. You saw it just before I fixed it.

I appreciate the edit, which was definitely an improvement. But "If you're not used to reading academic papers then of course it would confuse you" is still a personal swipe. At least that's how it lands with me (and probably at least some others as well).

The comment I was replying to was accusing the authors of the paper of intentionally misleading people. In my mind that is someone who is confused and assuming bad faith of the authors without making a genuine effort to understand their paper beyond the headline.
