What if we could see the invisible? At MIT, we're turning this concept into reality through extreme cameras and extreme AI. I'll demonstrate how we're pushing the boundaries of human perception, from seeing around corners to detecting invisible stress in objects. Imagine the possibilities: cars that can spot incoming traffic from blind spots, or bridges that warn us before they collapse. AI with superhuman vision is on the horizon and you truly won't see it coming.
