Memory

Iris Memory allows Iris to remember your learning preferences and past interactions across conversations, providing more personalized support over time. This feature is powered by Memiris, a dedicated memory service within the EduTelligence ecosystem.

What Iris Remembers​

When Memory is enabled, Iris stores summarized information about your interactions — for example:

  • Topics you have asked about frequently
  • Concepts you have struggled with
  • Your preferred explanation style (examples vs. formal definitions, step-by-step vs. overview)
  • Context from previous conversations that may be relevant to your current question

This means Iris can avoid repeating explanations you have already understood and focus on areas where you need more help.

info

Memory is currently active in Course Chat and Lecture Chat. Exercise-specific chats (programming and text exercises) do not create or use memories at this time.

info

Iris does not store your personal identity, passwords, or unrelated personal information. Memory is limited to learning-relevant interaction summaries.

How to Enable or Disable Memory​

You can toggle Memory during the AI experience selection when you first set up Iris. You can also enable or disable it at any time through your learner profile settings in Artemis.

  • Enabling Memory starts personalization from that point forward.
  • Disabling Memory stops new memories from being created. Existing memories are retained until you explicitly delete them.

The Brain Icon​

When Memory is active, you may see a small brain icon on messages in the chat. This icon indicates:

  • How many existing memories were used to inform that particular response
  • How many new memories were created from that interaction

This gives you transparency into when and how personalization is being applied.

Managing Your Memories​

You can view and manage all stored memories in your learner profile settings in Artemis:

  • View what Iris has remembered about your learning interactions
  • Delete individual memories that you do not want Iris to retain
  • Delete all memory data to completely reset Iris's personalization for your account
warning

Deleting memories is permanent and cannot be undone. After deletion, Iris will no longer have the context from those previous interactions.
