| 3181 | 3181 | And this bring me to the first topic of today's planning session: |
| 3182 | 3182 | memory for Claude. |
| 3183 | I started this project a few months ago; |
| 3184 | should I drop it, |
| 3185 | or continue? |
| 3186 | A few months ago, |
| 3187 | I was using Claude for routine coding tasks, |
| 3188 | and got frustrated that it seemed unable to remember something I told it just earlier in the session. |
| 3189 | So I said to myself |
| 3190 | \begin_inset Quotes eld |
| 3191 | \end_inset |
| 3192 | |
| 3193 | lets fix this |
| 3194 | \begin_inset Quotes erd |
| 3195 | \end_inset |
| 3196 | |
| 3197 | . |
| 3198 | (I now realize that there are probably dozens if not hundreds of engineers at Anthropic, |
| 3199 | working hard to fix this as well, |
| 3200 | and I have an indirect impression that they are making small, |
| 3201 | incremental progress: |
| 3202 | Claude seems a little more cognizant each time I use it. |
| 3203 | Maybe. |
| 3204 | I could be imagining things; |
| 3205 | maybe not.) |
| 3206 | \end_layout |
| 3207 | |
| 3208 | \begin_layout Standard |
| 3209 | Anyway, |
| 3210 | it went like this. |
| 3211 | I start with a standard prompt: |
| 3212 | |
| 3213 | \begin_inset Quotes eld |
| 3214 | \end_inset |
| 3215 | |
| 3216 | before you continue in this task, |
| 3217 | please review these bullet points. |
| 3218 | \begin_inset Quotes erd |
| 3219 | \end_inset |
| 3220 | |
| 3221 | But I don't want to write those bullet points, |
| 3222 | I want Claude to write them. |
| 3223 | Back then, |
| 3224 | Claude did not have a |
| 3225 | \begin_inset Quotes eld |
| 3226 | \end_inset |
| 3227 | |
| 3228 | plan mode |
| 3229 | \begin_inset Quotes erd |
| 3230 | \end_inset |
| 3231 | |
| 3232 | ; |
| 3233 | now it does. |
| 3234 | So basically, |
| 3235 | I wanted Claude to create a |
| 3236 | \begin_inset Quotes eld |
| 3237 | \end_inset |
| 3238 | |
| 3239 | plan |
| 3240 | \begin_inset Quotes erd |
| 3241 | \end_inset |
| 3242 | |
| 3243 | that it would review, |
| 3244 | and update, |
| 3245 | as it performed each step of its task. |
| 3246 | Now, |
| 3247 | such plans are, |
| 3248 | in the current design, |
| 3249 | text files. |
| 3250 | Which makes sense: |
| 3251 | LLMs work with text, |
| 3252 | soe of course, |
