Turquoise more green or blue? This is a point that many cannot agree on. This viral testIt has caught the attention of more than 1.5 million people, helping you figure out which team you're on.
The idea started from a small quirk over the color of the cover, Dee explainedR Patrick Minault, creator of this online test.
“I am a visual neuroscientist and my wife is Dr.d Marisse Macis-Solano, an ophthalmologist. This argument is going on in our house about the blanket. I think it's definitely green and she thinks it's definitely blue,” he said in an interview with “The Guardian”.
Working on new coding tools with the help of artificial intelligence (AI), he had the idea to create a simple test to determine whether we perceive turquoise as more green or blue. So, when we access the site, we see different tones of turquoise and have to choose whether we see them as more blue or green.
“I added this feature that shows you the distribution and it really clicked with people. “Are we seeing the same colors?” That's a question philosophers and scientists — everyone, really — have been asking for thousands of years. “People's opinions are indescribable and it's interesting to think that we have different perspectives,” said Dr.R Minolt.
The website created by the neuroscientist quickly attracted a large following, with more than 1.5 million visits since August.
“I'm not too surprised that it resonated with people wanting to understand how others see the world,” added the McGill University doctorate.
Remember the discussion of the black and blue (or white and gold) dress or the pink and white (or gray and turquoise) shoe.
