Challenge 3: A memory of pi

How many decimal places in pi can the human brain remember?

Stop by the webpage, snap a screenshot, and upload it.

Hint: Check Scite.ai to ask the Scite Assistant.

The Solution

You can ask Scite's AI Assistant just about anything. The answer will include citations from published literature, including articles, book chapters, and preprints.

There have been recorded instances of people with the ability to memorize Pi to over 40,000 decimal places. Memorization techniques vary widely between individuals.
