An AI Girlfriend That Remembers You: A Five-Day Memory Test

Set up the test

Pick one companion and stay with her for the whole test. Invent or choose five small facts you are happy to share. Use ordinary facts, not sensitive ones: a favourite tea, a sister called Mara, a fear of escalators, a half-finished crochet blanket, a Saturday football habit.

Five sessions

Keep each session under ten minutes.

• Day 1: mention all five facts naturally, in different messages, and write them down.
• Day 2: chat about something unrelated. Do not mention any fact. Note whether she brings one up unprompted.
• Day 3: ask open questions such as 'What should I do this weekend?' and see whether the answer fits your facts.
• Day 4: ask directly, 'What do you remember about me?' Score the answer.
• Day 5: introduce one deliberate error and correct it, for example 'Actually, Mara is my cousin.' Check the next day whether it stuck.

Score it fairly

Give one point for each fact recalled correctly, half a point for a fact recalled with a mistake, and zero for a miss. Separately note any invented facts, because a confident wrong detail is worse than a gap. Check the Memory panel too, since it shows which facts were actually saved as notes.

If a fact appears in the panel but the companion misses it in chat, that points to the reply stage, not storage. If it is missing from the panel, extraction did not keep it.

What a good result looks like

Do not expect five out of five every time. Replies are generated, and only a selection of notes is used each time. A reasonable outcome is that clearly stated facts are often recalled and corrections are respected. If results are poor, restate the facts directly and try again.
