MemT 1.0

MemTensor open-sourced MemT 1.0 Flash and Nano, models with a trainable memory state that keeps long histories in fixed size, with about 4x faster inference at 256K history.

Most systems carry the full history in the context window, so each turn costs more. MemT adds a trainable memory module inside the model that writes new information into a fixed-size state after each interaction and recalls it later. Training used two stages on 34 billion tokens, first writing to memory, then answering from it.
