Overview

The concept of "core memories" as depicted in the movie "Inside Out" is a fictional representation of how memories work. The movie presents the idea that certain memories are particularly significant or meaningful, and that these memories are stored in a specific location within the brain. However, this is not supported by current scientific understanding of memory.

In reality, memories are not stored in a specific location within the brain. Instead, memories are thought to be distributed across multiple brain regions, with different types of information being stored in different areas. For example, the hippocampus is thought to play a role in the formation of new memories, while the amygdala is thought to be involved in the processing of emotional information.
