Memory types (episodic, semantic, procedural)
What are episodic, semantic, and procedural memory in AI?
These three labels, borrowed from cognitive psychology, describe what kind of thing is being remembered. Episodic memory is a record of specific events — what happened, when. Semantic memory is general knowledge separated from the occasion you learned it — facts that stay true regardless of context. Procedural memory is knowing how to do something: the steps, the sequence, the method. An AI system that only stores episodes can tell you what you said; one that also captures procedure can work the way you work.
What this is called in Tempreon
Instincts — Style, Process, Judgment
Tempreon organizes learned patterns as Instincts, in three kinds: Style (how you write and communicate), Process (how you run work), and Judgment (how you make a call). These are learned from how you actually work rather than declared up front.
