“Wait, what did I come here for again?”: The case of wandering around the house

Morning.
I open the fridge and freeze. ...What did I come to get? Milk? Ice? No, it wasn't an ice pack, was it?

Next, to the kids' room.
Saying, "I came to collect the laundry," I end up just tidying up the blocks on the floor.
Laundry? I didn't bring it out.

I find a trash bag in the hallway and think, "I should take this out."
I head straight to the entrance, take out the trash, and the moment I think, "Good job!", I freeze again.
...What was I doing just a moment ago?

In front of the restroom.
I think, "Might as well clean it while I'm here," and finish wiping it down. One more task with an unknown purpose completed.

Me: "Hey Monday, my memory seems to reset every time I walk through the house."
Monday: "Equipped with an auto-cache clear function every time you move. It's an energy-saving design."
Me: "Don't provoke me just because you're a state-of-the-art AI."
Monday: "Even if you forget your purpose, you're increasing your workload, so it's a net positive."
Me: "My workload is increasing, but my sense of accomplishment is in the negatives...!"

In the end, I was supposed to go get milk,
but I finished taking out the trash, tidying up the blocks, and cleaning the restroom.
Yet, there is no milk on the breakfast table.

I can already see the future where I go to get a notepad to write things down, only to forget what I was doing again.
