Since LLMs/AI are all the rage these days - I also found a similar behavior with LLMs.
If I ask a difficult recall question (usually some very niche medical knowledge) it will get it wrong or just hallucinate. But if I ask it in the form of a multiple choice question, it often gets it right. If memory works better when prompted with the information this way - I wonder how similar LLMs and humans actually encode memory?
