Why forming memory is important?

Many people are asking, why forming memory is important? The neuro- and quantum computers are making it possible to make the systems that are learning independently. And the thing that makes those systems effective is that they are emulating the functions of human brains for the process, what is needed to learn new things. Memory is one of the most incredible things in the human brain. Every skill that we have and everything else that we can is stored in the memory cells. 

The memory is entirety, where storing in the memory has a big role, but forgetting things has also the same way big role. Why we are forgetting things? The idea of forgetting is simple. That will release those memory cells to another action, and that helps to keep the memory storage compact and easy to use. So when we are learning something, we should use those skills, because if we are not using them they are lost or forgotten. 

If we want to compare memory to the computer program or operating system, we can say that the memories, that are coded in DNA are the body of the memory. In DNA is stored the data, which makes us afraid of things like spiders and snakes. And in DNA is stored also the knowledge, how the neurons must search memory blocks from the brains. So we can say that the memory, which is stored in DNA is the nucleus of the operating system. The memories what are stored in neurons are like utility program. That thing makes the operating system of the computers intelligent and compact. 

In the nucleus of the system is only a limited number of data, and other things are made by using programs, that can pull out from memory after the use because there is a limited number of operational memory. When human sees something, first things are stored in short-term memory,  and that memory is the area of the brains, where the decision about storing the object to long-term memory will be made. 

The capacity of the memory of human brains is incredible. But it's still limited. Each memory neuron stores a limited number of data, and that means that we cannot remember endlessly things. So the brains must make decisions, what kind of data is important to them. If data is without purpose, it must not be stored, because that will reserve memory storage, which can use for something more important. 

Why we are forgetting things? If we do not need some information, what is stored in memory, we are forgetting that thing. And how brains are making decisions what data will be store and what will be destroyed. The key element in that process is simple: how often brains use the neuron, or axon what brings certain data to consciousness determines do we need that data? 

If some data is not used, it would go backward, because the axons, which are bringing data from those neurons can be released for some other purposes. And if the memory unit is not needed there is no need to store it, and the memory unit is crushed because it releases the neuron for some other missions.
