  • Fair point, but then, most people don’t have this.

    And even if you do it, you need to get some experience for your brain to develop a model of what to expect in certain situations. For instance, your brain will need some time to get used to the fact, that putting our hand on a fridge will give the brain new sensory stimuli because of the magnets on the fridge.

    This intuitive understanding of light and sound is just that - brain neurons being used to what to expect. And even with an implant you would need to train that.

    They even has created FirefoxOS for phone at some point in the past 10 years. But I don’t remember what happened with that.
