Human Perception System

Lex Fridman and Elon Musk discuss the incredible human perception system and how it maps raw photons to a vector space representation. Musk explains how the brain is constantly trying to forget as much as possible and distill the things that are seen into the smallest amounts of information possible. They then discuss the prayer for vision and the illusions of vision science, as well as the concept of object permanence.
