Even after the speaker shows this is not the case, we still &amp;quot;confidently see&amp;quot; the wrong thing. (not to mention, we suffer from non-optical illusions as well, like cognitive biases, and fallacious reasoning, as shown later in the talk).&lt;p&gt;It seems to me you guys have discovered &amp;#x27;machine optical illusion&amp;#x27;. It&amp;#x27;s just that the machine has illusions about something completely different. I believe exploring the space of architectures&amp;#x2F;weights&amp;#x2F;what-not might lead towards making a machine get into the same kind of optical illusions as the human visual system gets into. At the least, it looks like a very promising research direction to me.&lt;p&gt;[1] &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;youtu.be&amp;#x2F;9X68dm92HVI?t=2m22s&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;youtu.be&amp;#x2F;9X68dm92HVI?t=2m22s&lt;/a&gt;</text></comment>
