Einstein believedin not memorizing things you could readily lookup. I think I read that on the internet somewhere.
Google has changed the way I think. I avoid using Google because I don’t want them following me.

There's probably some truth to this.
As a kid, I recall having to make an effort to look something up at say, the library or an encyclopedia.
Consequently, I "remembered" a lot more of what I searched for because it wasn't just a click away.
You had to work for it.
Still wish there were search engines back in the 70s, though.
I would have used the hell out of them.

The same phenomenon was noted when literacy expanded. Illiterate people remembered entire volumes of poetry, the Bible, etc.
