Think about it. The more you learned about your brain the more complex it would become. Also I'm not sure we have enough capacity to reflect on ourselves by processing everything. Think about the massive complexity of every connection. Could someone actually process that or are we limited by ourselves?

No. My genius is so vast it boggles my own mind. Sometimes it scares me.

But from a quantum perspective you can't remember your own brain.
