AI Frog With Vector Memory: Forgetting, Recalling, Fed by Everyone

Vast-Grapefruits · reddit · 2026-11-15

A developer built James the Frog, a shared virtual AI pet living in a low-poly terrarium that everyone interacts with simultaneously. Its memory runs on OpenAI's text-embedding-3-small: every event gets embedded (512-dim) into a vector index, recall weights recency/importance/strength, unused memories fade nightly and are eventually deleted, and recalled memories strengthen. Cost is tiny ($0.02/M tokens, $10/month cap) with keyword-matching fallback. The author can also record voice memos that auto-generate recap videos of the frog's day. Live at jamesthefrog.com.
