Memory is the most marketed and least delivered feature in the AI companion space. Most platforms claim to remember you but either reset between sessions or just pull from a profile you filled in manually. After two years of testing the ones that actually carry real conversational context across weeks are rare. Just published a full breakdown of which platforms actually deliver on this versus which ones are just marketing: medium.com/@companaya/nomi-ai-review-2026-is-it-worth-it-tested-c91811dcb24a
Llama 3-based stuff is 70B, but it's not the largest out there. Not even the largest open-weight model. Off the cuff, Behemoth is based on Mistral Large, at 123B.
Fair point and you're right I should have said largest commonly deployed in consumer companion apps rather than largest period. Behemoth at 123B exists but none of the platforms I tested are actually running that in production. Sloppy phrasing on my part, appreciate the correction.
its so weird that that is now mistrals "medium" size...
weird to see em growing up like this...
Right? A year ago 70B felt massive and now it's basically mid-tier. The pace of this is genuinely hard to keep up with even when you're paying close attention to it.
And over here, I thought was 380 billion. Parameter model was fucking small.
