That assumes one layer of memory. In my experience you need to have at least 4 layers of memory to work well. All of them have different requirements for retrieval. Everything that is in short-term memory (state of the app, current conversation, current workspace artefact) requires fast latency and precision. For example if you want to edit a segment in a financial analysis, a blog post, or a program you only want to edit this segment. RAG on a VectorDB is overkill in my opinion.
