Individuals with photographic memory have the ability to vividly recall visual information, but this can also lead to a difficulty in forgetting unimportant details. Therefore, having the ability to selectively remember important information while letting go of unimportant details is crucial for efficient functioning. This selective memory helps them to prioritize and focus their attention on the necessary information.
