Memory as Metabolism: A Design for Companion Knowledge Systems
This paper proposes a companion-specific governance profile for single-user knowledge wikis, addressing the unique failure mode of entrenchment under user-coupled drift. It discusses emerging personal AI memory architectures from 2026, including RAG-based systems and wiki-style designs, alongside established academic and production memory systems.
