AI Memory: the AI's observations of you
Last updated June 10, 2026 · 4 min read
Different from cross-book memory — AI Memory is the preference profile Slima maintains for you: the AI organizes its observations of you into readable, editable items.
Four tabs
The AI Memory page (Account → AI Memory) has four tabs:
| Tab | Contents |
|---|---|
| User Memory | The AI's overall observations of how you write — applied across all your books |
| Book Memory | Observations scoped to one specific book (its setting, characters, book-specific requests) |
| Custom Rules | Hard instructions you write yourself — not AI-inferred, but rules you set |
| Help | An explanation of the feature itself |
User Memory and Book Memory each also split into Shared / Writing Coach only / Script Coach only — so you can manage observations that apply to both Studios separately from ones that apply to just one.
What AI Memory records
After each chat with the AI Coach, it picks out observations that may be useful later and files them by category (e.g. Communication preferences, Writing goals):
- Writing-style tendencies (literary / business / conversational …)
- Your idioms ("I write 'replied', not 'said'")
- Things you explicitly dislike ("no cliché similes")
- Typical book types and themes
- How you interact with the AI (short replies vs. detailed)
Each observation is a discrete item — not a black box, readable when you open the tab. Before anything has accumulated, a tab shows "No observations yet" and invites you to keep chatting so it can build up its understanding.
Edit, clear, back up
- View / delete: every observation is visible; delete inaccurate ones. A "Show deleted" toggle (top-right) brings deleted ones back into view.
- Custom Rules: write your own hard instructions on the Custom Rules tab (e.g. "all dialogue uses full-width quotes") — the AI always obeys them.
- Clear: each tab has "Clear this namespace" at the bottom — wipes that scope's observations in one go. Useful when you've shifted writing direction completely.
- Export backup: "Export backup" at the bottom saves the memory to a file you can take with you.
Why it exists
Ideally the AI on your 100th chat knows you better than on your first. AI Memory makes that automatic — you don't re-explain your preferences every time.
Privacy
AI Memory is for your eyes only — not shared, not used for model training.
