AI-Edited Images and Videos Can Implant False Memories and Distort Recollection:
<ul>
 <li>AI-edited images and especially AI-generated videos can cause people to confidently remember events that never happened.</li>
 <li>Paper: <a href="https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/162835/3706598.3713697.pdf">https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/162835/3706598.3713697.pdf</a>
</li>
 <li>Participants were first shown original images, then after a delay they were shown a stimulus corresponding to their assigned condition, and later memory tests were applied to check recall and confidence.</li>
 <li>Across 200 participants: AI-generated videos made from AI-edited images created 2.05× more false memories.</li>
 <li>They were also more confident in those false memories (1.19× increase)</li>
</ul>
