# Solving the Clive Wearing Problem: One-Shot Episodic Memory for Frozen Transformers
*Named for Clive Wearing, the musician who lost the ability to form new long-term memories but retained his procedural skills. Like Wearing, our frozen backbone retains all its trained capabilities but cannot form new memories through its own weights. We give it an external hippocampus.*

The system demonstrates that biologically-inspired learning mechanisms — Hebbian association, episodic binding, sleep consolidation with optimality certificates — can practically augment modern language models. The frozen backbone retains all capabilities. The synthetic hippocampus gives it new memories.
Like Clive Wearing, the backbone remembers everything it learned during training. Unlike Wearing, we gave it a working hippocampus.
