Memory Gets Us Through Each Day.
The books “How The Mind Changed” By Joseph Jebelli, “The Selfish Gene” By Richard Dawkins and “Sapiens By Yuval Noah Harari. Sets the mood for this blog.
According to Yuval Noah Harari, the imaginary order in which we live is a delicate dance of balance between the patterns of 37 trillion cells(Joseph Jebelli) controlling our human form from movement to thinking.
From birth till death, we build our memory from our senses if all things are equal (Richard Dawkins).
Memory is defined in six forms, according to Joseph Jebli.
- Reinforcement Memory tells us which action pays off and which does not through mere trial and error.
- Navigation Memory tells us which route is travelled many times and is likely to be safe.
- Biased Competition Memory tells us, based on previous experience, what is reinforcing and what has consequences.
- Feature Memory tells us what needs to be the focus in competing environments to help navigate it.
- Goal Memory tells us how, what, where, and when to do a specific aspect.
- Social Subjective memory that helps us to plan for the future.
These forms of memory developed through stages of evolution to complement as the brain evolved.
