What happens to our perception of reality after scrolling through Al-generated videos?

Our master students Sally Ahmed and @YasithSam7 alongside collaborators @medialab explored this question and published their findings just as OpenAl announced it's shutting down Sora.

What if you could search your visual memories with your eyes?

In a recent paper, we introduce Mnemonic Tracing —retrieving memories through eye movements. Instead of typing or scrolling, you may one day simply look your way back to a memory.
