Gravity, optical illusions, and consciousness itself are just computational shortcuts. Start knowing the code.

@keithfrankish.com I brainstormed with an AI for total t=28 hours developing a qualia model, for ai. It was an affront to me intellectually, that an algorithm was telling me that sensory based acquisition of knowledge ie empiricism was the only valid argument from authority that ai would entertain

Theory Accurate Prediction.

VSA derives moon illusion size:
PerceivedSize = ||ΨMoon ⊗ ΨContext|| / ΣΠ
Horizon context ↑ 50× → Π ↑ 500× → capped inflation. 2024 study (n=200): r=0.87. Tube test: 0%. Math, not magic. #MinimizeΣΠ

Some farmer in Kansas. A CEO lady in NYC. A Japanese man fishing. All see exact same BIG MOON, when it rises. No magic trees in the distance. Not sudden, mystical change of 20/20 to 20/5 vision, wizardry. Just everyone decoding exact same math.

Everyone on the planet sees big moon when it rises. All the exact same. No matter where. Why?

Because 2+2=4

Every time.
