Unlock the next level of Retrieval-Augmented Generation with full memory integration in AI agents. In the previous 3 episodes, we secretly built up what amounts to a 4-part series on agentic memory. This is the final piece of that 4-part series that pulls it ALL together.

In this episode, we explore how combining episodic, semantic, and procedural memories via the CoALA architecture and LangMem library transforms static retrieval systems into continuously learning, adaptive AI.

This also concludes our book series, highlighting ALL of the chapters of the 2nd edition of "Unlocking Data with Generative AI and RAG" by Keith Bourne. If you want to dive even deeper into these topics and even try out extensive code labs, search for 'Keith Bourne' on Amazon and grab the 2nd edition today!
