No magic, the machine cheats by removing them all.
All those then displayed are new.
The only "real" magic I experience is "existence" : that there
is something rather than nothing.
I experience some "virtual magic" in the qualia of my
subjective experiences. Virtual magic is a pragmatic
evolutionary delusion, easily understood by studying
AI. IMO AI should be required studies for all studying
neuroscience.
