If you allow Claude to keep memories from chats, it will store them in an easily accessible plain text file.

It’s trippy to read through. It reminds me of those sparse Wikipedia pages that feel like they’re written by someone whose only knowledge of the subject is second hand anecdotes.

Not all it thinks about me is true; I don’t have a soap business, for example. Not yet, at least. Regardless, it’s easy to forget how much information we give away in conversation, especially over time. For a tech business, it’s incredible data to be able to collect from users and also do it with such low friction.
