Viewpoint: Real-time Multimodal AI Will Enable Superhuman Communication
ctjlewis · x · 2026-07-29
The author proposes a perspective on the future of human-AI interaction, suggesting it will evolve into a superhuman form of communication.
The core argument is that while humans can converse in real-time and look at each other, we cannot easily project our visual imagination directly into someone else's mind. Real-time multimodal AI, combining visual generation and understanding, could eventually break this limitation and enable the direct transmission of mental imagery.
