alt Hacker News> if it could, you arguing with it isn't going to make it "learn" or act differently.
Are you talking about a specific harness that doesn't have context retention mechanisms? For example, ChatGPT with disabled memory feature? Or in general where "it" is a fixed-weights network? The latter is trivially true, of course.
Even claude with “memory” enabled isn’t really “remembering” anything. It just injects it into the context and you hope it happens to find it relevant in its attention mechanisms, and then remembers to actually act on it. Anthropic’s own documentation states claude can and will ignore/truncate these. It’s a context trick, nothing approaching actual “memory,” and in fact, arguing with it will make a bunch of memory files, sometimes contradictory, and clutter up the context and act even worse.
