What AI Roleplay Communities Figured Out About Context Windows Before Developers Did

Managing AI context windows in roleplay communities taught me more about how LLMs actually work than most dev tutorials. That experience shaped how I built Hum. Wrote about my experience and how it mapped directly to pain points for developers.
Recent research actually backs this up. Turns out context quality matters more than window size, and most models start degrading way before their advertised limits. RP builders figured that out the hard way before the studies caught up. Here's a better technical write up.
