How far can you trust your memory? | INNER COSMOS WITH DAVID EAGLEMAN
How good is your memory, really? Why do we feel so certain about our memory, even while it is so suspect? Can something told to you after an event change your memory of the event? Why is it so hard to reconstruct a face? Is there a relationship between confidence and accuracy? How is your ability to remember a scene changed if there's a gun pointed at you? Join Eagleman to find out why eyewitness testimony is the most questionable technology we allow in courts.

Wonderful episode!

Our current legal system remains medieval. I retired after 47 years directly operating in safety services/criminal justice system, and it wasn't until my own wife's brain cancer and death, that I found myself digging deeper in the neurobiology of human behavior. I am but one person, but I have done a 180 degree turn-around from this medieval perception/interpretation of our human behavior, politics, religion, and the social realities we generate. As a people and nation we must positively use this science to help us change how we see ourselves, each other and how we construct our governed social reality. Thank you for these outstanding lectures. They mean a lot to me as an individual professional and person.

Dear David, As an old Dutch man of 83 years I have been following you for years. Because of you I was able to learn a lot in my old age and I am grateful to you for that. Keep it up and hopefully you won't put background music under your spoken text so that I can continue to understand you very well and clearly. You make me happy with your podcast and thank you for that!

I wrote a poem after watching your inner cosmos series The Cosmic Computer The complexity of intelligence invested in a chemical soup In turn traps itself within a loop Neurons fire and networks wire Inside the bone box of our skull The Cosmic Computer that we call human brain Can torture itself if not well trained The miraculous machine that designs itself Responding and reacting to the input it receives Also carries a tragedy within a possibility Which makes it take a particular shape And now the cake is fully baked Then the play of pleasure and pain will not forsake Because what shapes our brain, shapes our consciousness But the pain you feel is not actually pain The pain is life's way of reminding you To break the shape and be boundless In everything that you are longing for You are only seeking yourself If you lose all your shapes You will find your true self…
