Abstract: The article explores the impact of technology on autobiographical memory and introduces the Autobiographical Memory in the Digital Age (AMEDIA) model. It argues that digital records do not simply preserve memories, but rather work together with the mind to construct autobiographical memories. The article examines different aspects of autobiographical memory, such as episodic and semantic elements, as well as the effects of sharing and reminiscing about memories. It also raises questions about the relationship between internal and external resources for remembering, and the role of algorithms and artificial intelligence in shaping autobiographical memory. The authors emphasize that external records, like photos and videos, are not necessarily objective representations of past events, and that memories can be influenced by these records. They suggest that further research is needed to understand people's beliefs about the accuracy of external records and how they interact with internal memory. [Extracted from the article]
