Eli5 the brains ability to not run out of “storage”
In: 105
It’s not that it *can’t* run out. It’s that no one has ever lived long enough to seriously tax it.
I have no idea how long that is, but physics says there must be a limit to how much data a given amount of matter can encode. I would guess that it would take the form of older memories fading, rather than becoming unable to create new ones, since that already happens as we age anyway.
