Fix the forgetting chat
Fix the forgetting chat
You have been working in one long chat for hours. You ask about a preference you stated near the beginning, and the answer is confidently wrong — the start of the conversation has fallen out of the context window.
What is the best next step?
Hint
What is the smallest, most relevant context you could bring to a clean window?
Why this is the answer
The window is finite working memory, and the oldest content falls out first. The durable fix is a carry-forward habit: summarize the essentials, start fresh, paste the brief. Restating a line helps briefly; managing the window deliberately helps permanently.
