Elastic Weight Consolidation (EWC) explained: how Fisher weight springs prevent catastrophic forgetting, why they struggle at LLM scale, and tools to try.

Cherry-picking training data for peak performance can trap agents in dead environments, while sliding window buffers help prevent self-training collapse.

Cherry-picking training data for peak performance deletes behavioural variance and collapses agents; a sliding window buffer preserves generalisation.

In our 13-generation continual learning study, top-3 historical generation curation collapsed while a K=3 sliding window SFT buffer adapted on 4x less data.

In a 13-generation agent study, a K=3 sliding window SFT loop retains 52.6% of full-history offline composite score and 58.4% of MB freed on 25% of the rows.
