Shad Intensive. Memory. Guardrails.

Shad Intensive. Memory. Guardrails.

Just want to share that I'm listening to this course. With a delay, but I'm trying to eat this mammoth piece by piece.

Today, in the "Memory and Guardrails" lecture, I didn't hear anything that gave me an insight I would like to share. Just common words about context length and context compaction in the memory part. In the guardrails part, they mentioned sources of danger like every user input, RAG, and API. I believe this is the usual computer security paranoia: you can't trust anyone. And it's much better to turn your computer off, drop it in liquid cement, and let it set.

The only thing that really interests me is not what I understood, but what I didn't. Surprisingly, I don't quite get this "context window" concept. Probably it's just my hallucination. If not, and if there is something interesting here, I'll share it.
