Funny film. I like the special effects and ninjas.
Very clever using James Bond to show how technology of the future can change the world for people with blindness and vision impairment. Usually you hear about all the negatives of AI the misinformation cheating in exams and putting people out of work. But its good to see the other side as well and encourage the scientists to focus on things that make a difference.
We're so excited by the potential of AI-powered devices for vision aid. Hopefully this near-future sci-fi film will become a reality and I will 'see' a blind James Bond in my lifetime.
