Keep learning at capacity

Language learning uses a rolling window of 200 text samples and at most 250,000 characters. New eligible text replaces the oldest recall samples. Word counts are bounded at 20,000 transitions and decay every 64 new samples. Counts can outlive individual recall samples; forget language learning clears both. Your separate chat history and documents have their own limits.

Read source and scope

The lexical database contains older dictionary wording, technical vocabulary and multiple senses. It is not a current-events encyclopedia or a factual verifier. Shared explanations are explicitly contributed and unverified. Ordinary private text is never published automatically.
