Report #14061
[architecture] Vector database fills with useless raw interaction logs degrading retrieval precision
Do not store raw conversation turns. Implement a memory consolidation step \(reflection\) that synthesizes high-level insights from interactions before persisting them.
Journey Context:
Storing every interaction is cheap but creates a needle-in-a-haystack problem. High recall, low precision retrieval severely degrades LLM performance. Synthesizing memories offline \(e.g., 'User prefers Python over Java' instead of 5 chat logs arguing about it\) makes retrieval highly precise and saves context window space.
