A developer observed their AI routing agent repeatedly making the same decision 47 times, each instance requiring deliberation and token consumption without retaining memory of previous correct outcomes. This led to unnecessary computational costs, prompting a reflection on the benefits of memory in AI systems, with a nod to the 1987 cognitive architecture SOAR, which prioritized recall over reasoning. AI
