People suffering from schizophrenia have brains that lose the ability
to forget or ignore as much as they normally would. Without
forgetting, they lose the ability to extract what's meaningful out of
the immensity of stimuli the brain encounters.

Findings suggest that exaggerated prediction-error signaling in
schizophrenia intermingles and corrupts narrative memories when
incorporated into long-term storage, thereby disrupting narrative
language and producing fixed delusional narratives. If further
validated by clinical studies, these computational patients could
provide a platform for developing and testing novel treatments.
