Recurrent neural networks typically compress information into a single vector-valued recurrent state, forcing short-term computation and long-term retention to share the same representation. Past extensions alleviate this bottleneck by increasing the memory capacity or separating timescales, but lack the combination of rapid neuron-level processing and longer-term retention found in biology. To that end, we introduce the Continuous Memory Machine (CMM), a recurrent architecture with matrix-valued short- and long-term memory states serving distinct functional roles. Building on the Continuous Thought Machine (CTM), the CMM's short-term memory tracks recent neural activity, with uniquely parameterized neuron-level models learning to use these activity patterns for computation. A persistent long-term memory stores information for later use, with a Transformer jointly updating both memory stores, providing an expressive bidirectional read--write mechanism such that each store can reorganize its own contents and both read from and write to the other. Across algorithmic, in-context learning, and recurrent reasoning tasks, the CMM outperforms a broad suite of baselines, exhibiting stronger generalization than prior memory-augmented networks while preserving the CTM's interpretable attention patterns.
