You are incorrect. "memory.md" and other context manipulations do not change the underlying model.

You misunderstood me. I was referring to training, not memories. It’s you who is wrong, my friend.

It is possible to train on every prompt. ChatGPT is not currently doing that, but it is in fact possible to do.
