Does AI Have Memory? Context Windows, Stored Memory and Training, Explained

Ask whether AI has memory and you get contradictory answers, because the word gets applied to more than one mechanism. As its own organising device — not a framework borrowed from any cited source — this guide sorts the material into three layers: in-session context, stored persistent memory, and what a model absorbed during training. It draws on published explainers from IBM, TechSee and Cognee, an academic article, an essay and a policy piece, and closes with a checklist marking where those sources converge, where only one publisher speaks, and where their descriptions fail to line up.
