Reminds me of a Borges story (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funes_the_Memorious, https://vigeland.caltech.edu/ist4/lectures/funes%20borges.pd...) and the article also led me to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthymesia — “Price has stated that she, like Funes, views her memory as a curse”.

I came here for this, and I'm glad you beat me to it. I never knew about hyperthymesia though, and it seems shocking that there have been persons affected by it, and it sounds like Borges was in fact prescient.
