Engramlab: RL teaches models to use their notes, robust through millions of token edits

_AustinCalvert_ · x · 2026-11-06

Engramlab's new blog investigates how RL complements text-based memory by training models to actually use their notes. Key finding: training can be cheap compared to building the notes, and stays surprisingly robust even through millions of tokens of memory edits. Reposter lefttailguy frames it as "long ontology": local knowledge both makes models better at tasks and cheaper to teach new ones — the alpha is knowing what to write down, when to retrieve it, and crucially when and how to revise it.
