He is highly functional, able to multiply two digit numbers in his head and run heavy equipment on his farm. But he'll ask you the same question, five minutes after he asked it the last time. He'll forget what neighbor just visited him the day before, or whether he called the gas company to refill his propane barrel.
I believe that a voice interactive LLM with memory could be extremely helpful to him and to other elderly people. He could use it as a daily log, telling it things that have occurred, and then interrogate it later. In truth, who among us could not benefit from such a system, even in our younger years?
This framework looks interesting to use for such a project. Are there any other people working on similar things?
