While models like Nous Research's Hermes AI Agent refine their skills based on user patterns, the author argues that this learned context is distinct from the underlying model and should be user-controlled. The author proposes a memory layer, like their own project Empirical, that stores user decisions and preferences independently of any specific AI assistant, allowing users to retain their accumulated knowledge when switching between different AI models.
