The Problem
The more I use AI in my daily life, the longer my conversations get. And the longer a conversation goes on, the greater the ...

Interesting..
Thanks! What is your best approach for IA?
I brute force it. Sometimes when I want to get something done quickly, I would put it in bold "DO NOT CHANGE THE FUNCTIONALITY. KEEP AS IS" because sometimes it will achieve the result but will change other code that is no relevance to the task I give it.
Ahahaah that a good solution!
Hi, Thomas!
This is Kai and software engineer.
I am really happy to discuss anything with you.
Thank you.
Hello Kai! Discuss about IA?
AI is good now. Are you a software engineer?
AI is not the best good tool. I'm a software engineer yes
Good. I am a software engineer, too.
What is your current location?
🐥 -would be my choice for a 'canary token' ;-)
Ohh yess! 🐥🐥🐥
Thomas I must admit to waiting till gem pro UI starts to wobble a bit, do you think yr idea will be an indication prior to the UI starting to crash? I do get fantastic results on complex logic stuff. (A retired engineering tech, now able to produce controller code with AI as typist)
Hello! I don't know, I'm only on Claude AI.
The canary comparison is exact and the mechanism is worth naming. What happens in long conversations is roughly the lost in the middle attention problem: models give less weight to instructions that drift into the middle of a long context window as new messages pile in from the end. Your RES token effectively measures that drift. In production agentic pipelines we handle it by periodically reinserting a compressed system prompt summary rather than trusting initial instructions to stay effective for the full conversation. The canary still matters alongside that because prompt reinsertion has token cost and you want to know when it was actually needed. Have you noticed the word disappearing more in code generation threads than in back and forth discussion?
No, my text almost never disappears, at least not recently.
