Google's new TurboQuant algorithm speeds up AI memory 8x, cutting costs by 50% or more
As Large Language Models (LLMs) expand their context windows to process massive documents and intricate conversations, they encounter a brutal hardware reality known as the "Key-Value (KV) cache bottleneck."Every word a model processes must be stored as a high-dimensional vector in high-speed memory. For long-form tasks, this "digital cheat sheet" swells rapidly, devouring the graphics processing unit (GPU) video random access memory (VRAM) system used during inference, and slowing the model performance down rapidly over time. But have no fear, Google Research is here: yesterday, the unit within the search giant released its TurboQuant algorithm suite — a software-only breakthrough that provides the mathematical blueprint for extreme KV cache compression, enabling a 6 [...]

A 0.12% parameter add-on gives AI agents the working memory RAG can't
AI agents forget. Every time a coding assistant loses track of a debugging thread, or a data analysis agent re-ingests the same context it already processed, the team pays in latency, token costs, and [...]
DeepSeek’s conditional memory fixes silent LLM waste: GPU cycles lost to static lookups
When an enterprise LLM retrieves a product name, technical specification, or standard contract clause, it's using expensive GPU computation designed for complex reasoning — just to access stati [...]
Tencent's Team Memory shares AI agent memory across a team — with no governance yet for when it's wrong
A VB Pulse survey this June found that 57% of enterprises had traced a confidently wrong agent answer back to missing or inconsistent context — the latest sign of how central context has become to w [...]
Google’s new compression algorithm cut memory stocks within hours of publication
Google published a research blog post on Tuesday about a new compression algorithm for AI models. Within hours, memory stocks were falling. Micron dropped 3 per cent, Western Digital lost 4.7 per cent [...]
Google PM open-sources Always On Memory Agent, ditching vector databases for LLM-driven persistent memory
Google senior AI product manager Shubham Saboo has turned one of the thorniest problems in agent design into an open-source engineering exercise: persistent memory.This week, he published an open-sour [...]
MeMo's memory model lets teams upgrade their LLM without retraining it — and performance jumps 26%
Enabling LLMs to acquire new knowledge after training remains a major hurdle for enterprise AI — current solutions are either too expensive, too slow, or constrained by context window limits.MeMo, a [...]
