class=\"wp-block-heading\">Context retention across turns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Strong platforms maintain conversational state so the system remembers intent, entities, and tone across multiple turns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is essential for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Customer support bots<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interactive storytelling<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AI companions and
