Memory Is Communication: The Frontier Between Remembering and Signaling

arXiv cs.AIAugust 19, 2026en

arXiv:2608.17053v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A bounded agent may obtain information for a decision from its own past, from peers, or from both sources. Retaining task-relevant history can reduce later communication, while a peer message can supply what memory lacks. Under limits on both resources, how should an agent allocate its information budget? Given a fixed task and decision rule, the memory and message rate pairs attaining a performance threshold form an achievable region under specified rules for using history and peer observations. We call its efficient boundary the remembering--signaling frontier. Across conditions where history permits the same maximum reduction in task loss, w
