Gates That Control Memory
How LSTMs decide what to keep.
Plain RNNs Forget
A simple RNN struggles to remember things from far back. The LSTM was built to fix that by carefully managing what it keeps and forgets. 🧠
The Cell State
An LSTM carries a special cell state, a memory line that runs straight through every step so important signals survive long sequences.
