I love this idea and it leads me to a question for everyone here.

I've done a bunch of user interviews of ChatGPT, Pi, Gemini, etc. users and find there are two common usage patterns:

1. "Transactional" where every chat is a separate question, sort of like a Google search... People don't expect memory or any continuity between chats.

2. "Relationship-driven" where people chat with the LLM as if it's a friend or colleague. In this case, memory is critical.

I'm quite excited to see how OpenAI (and others) blend usage features between #1 and #2, as in many ways, these can require different user flows.

So HN -- how do you use these bots? And how does memory resonate, as a result?

Sometimes GPT-4 and I will arrive at a useful frame that I wish I could use as a starting point for other topics or tangents. I wish I could refer to a link to an earlier conversation as a starting point for a new conversation.
