Comment on Magnetism only feels like magic, because we don't have biological sensors for it

Fair point, but then, most people don’t have this.

And even if you do it, you need to get some experience for your brain to develop a model of what to expect in certain situations. For instance, your brain will need some time to get used to the fact, that putting our hand on a fridge will give the brain new sensory stimuli because of the magnets on the fridge.

This intuitive understanding of light and sound is just that - brain neurons being used to what to expect. And even with an implant you would need to train that.

Though I’m definitely curious to experience once how that would feel like 😄
