Interesting post, thanks for sharing. I can relate a bit in that I also have poor autobiographical memory. I feel a bit like an android in Westworld where-in everyday, the android forgets what happened the previous day and reverts back to core programming.
My Dad is also similar in having poor autobiographical memory and so I think it is at least partly genetic. I use tools to help improve my memory. One of them is Otter.AI which is good for capturing conversations with other people and with making voice memos so at least that makes it possible to review past conversations and ideas. Another thing that I'm trying recently is using Google Docs as an index, basically just actively making an effort to remember previous conversations and writing down the key points in the Google Doc.
