"All seeing" except it's using radar to evaluate typography and biomass. What am I missing that makes this "absolutely fucked"?
Impressive that it has the resolution to identify fonts
I was so confused when I saw your comment until I reread my own. It really is top notch technology I guess!
This first iteration is only capable of identifying serif fonts, still impressive though.
