Video.

Think of every movie or event you can replay in your mind. Every advertisement you have tucked away. Jingle. Song. Movie. Sex scene. Sexual encounter. The cognitive ability to do math. All of it.

I have 34000+ songs on my phone. I can single every single one of them word for word.


Not to mention our visual recognition ability, which is still pretty far from being matched digitally.

Disagree. It's all there but we only access it when we need to, and if possible. But it's there. I know this from having head injuries.

I never said it wasn't there, just that it may not be at the highest resolution. Also, our brain is very good at filling in gaps. This is why we experience optical illusions.

It's all a guess based off of an imperfect analogy. A brain doesn't actually operate anything like a computer, so using computer terms like "petabytes" has pretty limited value. At least that is my own limited understanding of the matter.

I go home every Friday night with about 10 petabytes of data with a solid redundant array. 2-14 Maker's Mark over the weekend resets the game.
