I wonder though, after decades of study in numerous fields, how much would you actually be able to remember?

No doubt some events in your life might stick around in your mind for a long time, but by your 100th, 300th, whatever year would 50% of it just be a hazy memory?

Or maybe this technology could give you super memory, I mean even currently some people are born with the ability to remember tons of information, but often at the expense of other brain facilities.

Memory is more structure than stuff, providing foundations of future thoughts. Meaningful insights shape your interaction with the world and change how you interface with reality. the details fade but the evolution of mind's empowering constraints continues on.

Which would be even worse for unlearning things/talk therapy.

On the flip side, what improvements would we see just from tripling or quadrupling our training time? It'd be the human equivalent of "left it running over the holidays and now it's state of the art".
