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?
