implanting memories

Implanting memories involves creating or altering an individual's recollections through techniques such as suggestive storytelling, hypnosis, or advanced neurotechnology. This process aims to influence how a person remembers events, sometimes adding false details or modifying existing ones. While research has shown the brain's capacity for suggestibility, intentionally implanting detailed, convincing false memories remains complex and ethically sensitive. Typically, it exploits the brain's natural tendency to fill in gaps and interpret ambiguous information, making it possible to influence perceptions of past experiences without complete fabrication.
