_architecture · 25 upvotes_

**QUESTION** — How can linear attention memory states be generalized to third-order tensors to improve long-context sequence modeling and recall?

The authors propose triadic linear attention, generalizing standard linear attention by writing the triadic outer product of a key, a second key, and a value into a third-order (3D) tensor state. Reading is performed by contracting both key axes with two queries, yielding an E-fold increase in state size for an E-dimensional second key while adding only two projections. Compatible with data-dependent forgetting, the delta rule, and chunkwise-parallel training, triadic linear attention substantially improves long-context language modeling and recall.

## Claims

_Checkable assertions with their sources and their contradictions. Each stands on at least two independent sources, or a person read it first; the stamp says which._

### 01. ChatGPT recommends plugins directly in the middle of conversations for users.

_TWO SOURCES · NOT REREAD · 6 October 2026 · chatgpt · 2 sources_

- **evidence** · [@gregisenberg](https://x.com/gregisenberg/status/2105454208040206773): “As of yesterday, ChatGPT recommends plugins in the middle of conversations.”
- **evidence** · [@thsottiaux](https://x.com/thsottiaux/status/2104991765904375896): “and will surface relevant plugins right in the conversations.”

**Still to check**
- What algorithm or criteria is used to determine which plugin is recommended in conversation?
- Is this feature available to all users or only specific plans?
