[STRONG] "Dumping entire conversations into a vector database isn't memory. It's just expensive storage with a search bar." — Article explicitly challenges the naive vector DB approach to memory, positioning Engram as a smarter alternative.
[STRONG] "Current implementations are largely session-based... persistent memory [is a] critical missing piece across all three platforms." — Article explicitly identifies persistent memory as missing from major agent implementations (Perplexity, Meta, Anthropic), contradicting the notion that this capability is available or standard in modern agent architectures.
[STRONG] "some face limits with memory and integrations" — GTM users report memory limitations as a constraint on Claude Code workflows, identifying gap in persistent state management
[INFERRED] "Having API interfaces for memory blocks and tools is certainly convenient - you can spin up stateful agents as API services with just a few lines of code.
