Scatterbrain

Henning Beck is an engaging public speaker and champion Science Slammer in Germany. Here is a link to a popular TEDx talk he did on how the brain creates ideas https://youtu.be/oJfFMoAgbv8
In Scatterbrain, he explains how the flaws and mistakes of our brains, alike forgetfulness, re actually our secret weapons, enabling us to think more creatively. 
He also says our brains are better than computers or AI. AI may be able to outperform humans in playing games or recognizing faces - but we're able to invent new games or rules.
The pandemic has increased memory failures for many people This is not surprising since memory is often triggered by distinctive cues, like what someone was wearing, or where a conversation took place. For people working from home with most communication reduced to email and zoom calls, they lose those unique memory triggers that help us recall a conversation, or even what day it is!
