Abstract

The paper investigates how editing an agent's history of mistakes affects its performance when the world still contains those errors.

Reality Card

Core Claim

Editing an agent's history can worsen its performance if the world still retains the original error, demonstrating that the context of the world significantly influences the effectiveness of history edits.

Method / Result

The addition of a truthful note raised recovery from 51% to 66%, while a completed action decreased it from 50% to 44%.

Limitations

The study's findings may vary significantly based on the specific context of the world and the nature of the edits made to the history.
