In my experience, it seems to be limited to previous conversations, and it may be limited in length.
I pretty regularly delete old conversations, partly with the guide of privacy which I am sure does not actually delete or exist, but also for my own sanity of looking back on projects. And I don’t even use AI that much, it’s all free tier, mostly Claude.
That said, it will often get “lobotomized” and “forget” things after I delete the source conversation.
It does remember basic things. Like I use it a lot to help set up Docker containers, so it knows I have a Linux machine and a webserver and a Windows Machine. It knows the Linux box runs Docker and is named Squall. It knows these sort of, generic things, even across conversations. I can open a new chat and say “I want to set up a Wordpress sandbox” and it will ask like “Would you like to use Docker on Squall or run it outside a container with Apache.”
