I actually think it's much simpler than all of this. I may be extrapolating from my own brain a bit, I'm fairly certain that the brain creates a timeline of the past by running a garbage collection function every night that goes something like:
if (memory.timestamp < YESTERDAY) delete(memory);
- vokep 8y agoI think its a bit more complex than that, maybe something like if (memory.timestamp < YESTERDAY && memory.significance < 0.1) { delete(memory); } else { dream_playback(memory).then((score) => { memory.significance = score; }) }
- therein 8y agoSo if I understand correctly, you are suggesting that the dream playback is used as a way to determine the significance of a memory?
