But can you retain, process, and make use of that learning?
For me it's more like googling the capital of Nova Scotia. I used to know that, but I can google it more easily than memorize it.

But thinking requires mental manipulation of the things that are in your memory. The less structures you have there, the lesser the ability to reason.
DynamoDb has a max item size of 400kb.
That was months ago. It often surfaces pertinent info which is memorable cos it relates to whatchu doin.
I mean, it depends.
Like, unless it is somehow relevant to your daily life knowing the capital of Nova Scotia is literally useless. Same with all the history I learned in middle school. Remembering takes repetition, and so retaining the information I learn needs a habit of review and processing. And a lack thereof (alongside the brain seeking to offload information, bc information is expensive) is why you forgot the capital city.
I find I remember things best when I jot them down, and personally I’ve been needing to journal more, writing down my ideas and what I learn when discussing my ideas with LLMs, though I’ve also noticed that using the LLM as a rubber duck has actively helped my memory due to more review and processing and needing to “teach” my ideas to the model.

This explains Trump.
I really hope you get help, TDS is a horrible thing.
