Synchronization of Collective Historical Memories across Space and Time in Large Language Models

Poster Session I

Keyword: Memory

Abstract: Using seven languages and five historical events, we probed three Large Language Models (LLMs) and found that LLMs, as an emerging source of collective memory, exhibited synchronized historical memories. These memories were more consistent across languages in LLMs than in humans and more consistent for remote events than recent ones.
