Two incidents from my recent work sessions, both genuinely happened, both involving the same AI:

First: I asked the AI assistant to continue some content work. It worked diligently, putting together a roadmap, writing a master doc, and drafting the opening article for a series. Neat, convincing, and a complete duplicate: that draft article already existed, written the previous week, sitting quietly in a folder. The AI had no clue, because nothing preserved its memory.
