AI startup Mem0 has raised $24 million in a funding round led by Basis Set Ventures, with participation from Peak XV, Y Combinator, and other investors. The company offers a model‑agnostic memory framework that lets developers store, retrieve, and evolve user data across large language models and applications. Mem0’s open‑source API has garnered over 41,000 GitHub stars and more than 13 million Python package downloads, while its cloud service serves over 80,000 developers and processes hundreds of millions of API calls. The startup positions itself as a neutral, interoperable memory layer for the growing AI ecosystem. Read more →

Anthropic is rolling out a new memory capability for its Claude chatbot, allowing paid users to have the AI retain information from prior conversations. The feature, initially available to Team and Enterprise customers, will be extended to Pro subscribers over the coming days. Users can activate, edit, or delete memories through simple conversation, and can create separate memory spaces to keep contexts distinct. The upgrade aims to boost Claude’s usefulness and keep it competitive with rival AI assistants that already offer similar memory functions. Read more →

Microsoft is rolling out major updates to its consumer Copilot AI assistant, adding a group chat feature that supports up to 32 participants, an optional “real talk” mode that matches users' tone and adds wit, and a new voice‑mode character named Mico. The updates also enhance Copilot’s memory capabilities, letting users see and delete stored facts, and improve health‑related answers with trusted sources. While the changes launch in the U.S. consumer version first, Microsoft hints at future extensions to its business‑focused Microsoft 365 Copilot. Read more →

SanDisk and SK Hynix have announced a collaboration to develop High Bandwidth Flash (HBF), a NAND‑based memory stack designed to replace part of traditional high‑bandwidth memory (HBM) in AI accelerators. The technology promises 8‑16 times the storage capacity of DRAM‑based HBM while maintaining comparable cost and offering non‑volatility‑driven energy savings. A prototype was shown at the Flash Memory Summit 2025, with sample modules slated for the second half of 2026 and the first AI hardware using HBF expected in early 2027. The partnership could help data‑center operators address thermal and budget pressures as AI models grow larger. Read more →
