Typing is a bug. Or maybe we just got used to it. At Art Central, something felt a bit off. It’s a major international art fair, 100,000 people moving through the space all day — but almost no one was typing. Instead, they were just holding up their phone, trying to make sense of what’s in front of them. Not searching, not prompting. Just looking, and letting AI make sense of it in real time. And it wasn’t just a one-off. You’d see it happen again and again, across different booths, different people, different moments. At some point it stopped feeling like a demo, and started feeling like how people naturally use visual agent @Chance_vision . If AI is supposed to understand the real world, why are we still forcing it into text?
