Master the design and implementation of transparent, user-controllable AI memory systems that enhance personalization while maintaining privacy and user agency.
1. **Capture**: Convert raw interaction into minimal structured memory (who, what, why).
2. **Classify**: Tag category (preference, task, contact), sensitivity, and retention policy.
3. **Normalize**: Summarize, redact PII, and de-duplicate.
4. **Store**: Encrypt at rest; write with purpose + consent scope.
5. **Retrieve**: Filter by current intent + allowed categories; prefer recent, relevant.
6. **Explain**: Show “Why used” and allow inline removal or corrections.
