Charlie Brooker's "The Entire History of You" from his "Black Mirror" miniseries (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Mirror_%28TV_series%29#3._.22The_Entire_History_of_You.22 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Mirror_%28TV_series%29#3...) covers this: people are fitted with "grains" that record their entire lives and can be played back at will.
- corin_ 15y agoThere are obviously privacy questions around anything like that, but personally I'd kill to be able to play back parts of my life.
- TazeTSchnitzel 15y agoAs much as it sounds like a great idea, I think it would spoil the rose-tinted spectacles effect of memory. You'd be faced with the reality things might not have been as great as you thought.
- corin_ 15y agoI think if I watched everything there would certainly be things that make me think "wow, was I that much of a dick?", and hopefully other things that I'd be proud of and had forgotten. But really I want the ability to better re-visit a fairly small number of specific memories, ones that I'm pretty confident I remember the emotions and what happened well, just wish I could see them better.
