The author argues that current AI memory systems relying on graph data structures are fundamentally flawed due to the high cost of updating and maintaining these graphs. While graphs seem intuitive for representing relationships, the real challenge lies in the cascading recomputation required for even minor changes, making them unsuitable for dynamic AI memory. Instead, hierarchical data structures are proposed as a more scalable solution, offering constant update costs and deterministic retrieval, as demonstrated by the author's open-sourced Lithium project.
