Artificial Intelligence Models Can Predict and Collaboratively Modulate Human Memory Search

The article reports that large language models can predict and collaboratively modulate human memory search during a semantic fluency task. By tracking and forecasting participants’ semantic retrieval patterns, the models outperform other humans in following these mental trajectories. This suggests that AI can serve as a cognitive tool to extend human abilities in open‑ended conceptual exploration and creative ideation.

Neural Procedural Memory: Empowering LLM Agents with Implicit Activation Steering

While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel as static solvers, transforming them into autonomous agents remains challenging. This transition requires continuous environmental interaction, yet current agents lack the necessary persistent procedural memory.
