This could be the strangest prison ever imagined. Cognify is a concept by scientist Hashem Al-Ghaili.
Instead of keeping someone in prison for years, the system would create synthetic memories of their crime.
They would experience what happened from the victim's perspective.
AI-generated simulations would be combined with brain technology to trigger emotions like regret and guilt.
And while the process may take only minutes... It could feel like years to the person experiencing it.
Cognify is still just a concept.
