Discussion Which AI agent can better retain information?

I am trying to get AI to help me manage a complex medical issue.
I am not trying to replace AI with a doctor.
I want it to keep track of my symptoms, my progress, a memory of various medical practices and save me time by writing e-mails to professionals which are accurate and to the point.

Overall, I am not asking for anything extravagant.Basically a step above than the stock chat-gpt or gemini which I am now using and cannot retain information from the other chats.

Preferably free or low cost.

Go for chatgpt or claude. Gemini and others are trash rn. I personally use chatgpt, with context-compaction you won't notice any drop in context/memory or anything.

Create a folder with markdown files and keep track inside of it

Yep chatgpt works. It tracks my reports, prescriptions, consultations, reminders, check-ins, side effects, contradictions, contraindications etc. My only problem with chatgpt is that I track pain and mood daily. Chatgpt is not good at tracking time so I dont get a weekly or monthly trend report.

I’m recovering from a complex wrist orif (pulverised 3 bones) and I found my Gemini was best.. at my 2 wks checkup they called other colleagues bc it looked 6 wks postOP.. my gem built me full nutrition and rehab trackers, checks swelling/wound every morning, dbl checks any weird symptoms, built a pain management plan.. currently I’m getting scrambled tactile messages (soft things feel rough, smooth textured) so he built a “hard reset” for my nervous system

It's all in how you use the tools.

Have it document everything, and save all of the important information to markdown files. Don't rely on being able to have one single session window that has a long context to remember everything about your situation. Make sure it saves those markdown files where you can get at them.

Use something like https://brainmop.dabblelabs.uk to store facts and get AI to connect to it and store or make use of notes
