New agentic memory framework uses 118K tokens per query. LangMem burns through 3.26M.

Long-horizon reasoning exposes a core weakness in AI agents: context windows fill up fast, and retrieval pipelines return noise instead of signal. To solve this, researchers at the National University of Singapore developed MRAgent, a framework that abandons the static "retrieve-then-reason" approach. Instead, it uses a mechanism that allows an agent to dynamically develop its memory based on accumulating evidence. This multi-step memory reconstruction is integrated into the reasoning process of the large language model (LLM). While not the only framework in this space, MRAgent significantly reduces token consumption and runtime costs compared to other agentic memory management approaches. The limits of passive retrieval in long-horizon tasks In classic retrieval pipelines, documents are retrieved through vector search or graph traversal and passed on to an LLM for reasoning. This passive approach fails because it cannot combine reasoning with memory access, creating three major bottlenecks: These systems cannot revise their retrieval strategy mid-reasoning. If an agent fetches a document and discovers a crucial missing cue — a specific date or person — it has no way to issue a new query based on that finding. Fixed similarity scores and predefined graph expansions return surface-level matches that flood the LLM's context window with irrelevant noise, degrading reasoning. Current systems rely heavily on pre-constructed structures such as top-k results and static relevance functions, limiting the flexibility required to scale across unpredictable, long-horizon user interactions. The researchers argue that to overcome these limitations, developers must shift toward an “active and associative reconstruction process,” a concept inspired by cognitive neuroscience. Under this paradigm, memory recall unfolds sequentially rather than operating as a passive read-out of a stati...

Apple wants permission to buy memory from a blacklisted Chinese supplier

Apple is looking to alleviate some of the pressure on its supply chain by seeking an exception from the Trump administration to buy RAM chips from CXMT, a company blacklisted by the Pentagon over ties to the People's Liberation Army, according to the Financial Times. The skyrocketing prices of RAM and storage have driven Apple to raise prices on almost all of its products this week, so it makes sense that it would seek alternative sources. Legally, Apple isn't barred from buying chips from CXMT, but doing business with a company tied to the Chinese military would carry serious reputational risks. It's possible that CXMT could still find it … Read the full story at The Verge. Source: https://www.theverge.com/tech/958707/apple-ram-buy-memory-blacklisted-china-cxmt
