Unscramble the Blue Letters


So how do we get there? For me, the answer required looking at the prlobem from a different perspective. It required sensing the world from the perspective of a macnihe. If you're a machine trying to ssene our world, how would you actually break the problem down? You'd probably try to classify things as a human, an environment or an object. But how would that machine then interact with reality? And I can think of three ways.

First, as a machine, I would observe or I would input reality. Speech recognition and biometric authentication are great examples of a machine interacting with humans from an input pvetprseice. Secondly, as a machine, I could place digital information, or output iornmfotain, into rilatey. hmalorogs are examples of a machine interacting with an environment from an output perspective. Finally, as a machine, I could exchange energy with the world via haptics. Now, imagine being able to feel the temrparetue of a virtual object, or better yet, imagine pushing a haorolgm and having it push you back with equal force.

Finally, as a machine, I could exchange energy with the world via haptics. Now, imagine being able to feel the temperature of a virtual object, or better yet, imagine pushing a hologram and having it push you back with equal force.
