人们常说"眼见为实"，但如果今天再问一个问题：照片还能算现实的记录吗？答案或许已经不像过 去那么简单。 越来越多的手机摄影功能，并不是单纯记录影像。在算法和人工智能（AI）的参与下，能对画面 进行重建、补全甚至重新生成。曾参与iPhone人像模式开发的兹夫·阿塔指出，如今手机相机"远不只是 记录传感器捕捉到的光线"，系统会根据算法推测更理想的画面，并重新构建图像。对很多用户而言， 相册里的照片实际上已经是一种计算生成的结果。 被算法"矫正"的记忆与审美 AI影像的影响，可能不仅停留在技术层面。 美国麻省理工学院媒体实验室的一项研究发现，当人们观看由AI生成或明显处理过的影像时，更 容易形成并不存在的记忆。研究人员让约200名参与者观看不同版本的视频，其中部分内容由AI生成。 结果显示，一些参与者会记住实际上并未出现的细节。研究人员认为，影像一直是人类记忆的重要线 索。当图像被算法自动优化甚至部分生成时，人们保存下来的可能并非当时真实发生的一刻，而是技术 加工后的版本。 从简单的照片增强到幻觉般的面部特征，现代手机在很大程度上决定了记忆的呈现方式。我们或许 会喜欢最终效果，但它们可能改变我们看待世界的方式。 手 ...
