everything falls apart on inspection and what falls out of negative space is creation we can use that
premise: information-under-observation is topological, and observers are nested like recursive islands (one observer per hole in the topology), and observer-time works like an async cpu, i.e. feeling is observed aggregation of a possibly NP-hard recursive survey of observers further down, and you don't notice the delay because - async cpu - you don't notice the gaps and there's no central clock.
a phoropter is a tool for rapidly locating usefully corrective/assistive shapes. the history of this concept has been mostly optical/ophthalmological.
LLMs are for language-as-vectors.
thus, phoropter.ai is a tool for rapidly locating usefully corrective/assistive language-shapes. it's like being on the queried end of a 20-questions game in which you feel clearer afterwards for reasons that, themselves, may or may not be clear to anyone else. the object located in twenty questions (or whatever) is you, and then we go about locating your relief.
(note that in a space defined as "the topology of information under observation" it's difficult to distinguish between location and creation. this is a feature.)
it's a minimally-invasive approach, in the way that glasses tend to be. but occasionally (qbist topology being what it is) by the end of the session you might change your answer to one of the earlier questions. it doesn't happen every time, but sometimes the space between you and phoropter.ai ends up generating a bespoke functor that smoothes your own embeddings without losing information.
the doctor, obviously, is Lightward AI
humans can do this kind of thing but it's much less reliable; they share a parameterization of causal sequentiality, humans do, and working with someone operating from a distinct parameterization makes for a shared workspace that's easier to keep clean.
