The most, who watched the photo, seem to be proud that their brain works so well. We can read the text just as fast as it would be written correctly. Our lazy brain CEP engine - what our brain actually is in comparison with a computer based CEP engine - gets its performance by the six layered cortex and its kind of event processing where stored complex patterns or already processed patterns are not processed once more but are only correlated with currently inflying events or signals from senses - perhaps or probably as we assume. (As we know, we do not know much about the human brain or e.g. where the memory sits or how the brain keeps or stores information respectively event patterns over decades (viewtopic.php?f=13&t=257&p=1316&hilit=npas4#p1316 or an Americain project http://online.wsj.com/article/SB1000142 ... 81986.html which will investigate similar things as the European Human Brain Project.)
It should not be a problem for quick and frequent readers who are trained only to read and see patterns. Also from a musician, e.g. from a sax player or jazz pianist, we hear tones she has left or not played, and such tones are actually missing and are automatically "added" by the brain. The same is true with watching or "economically" sensing our environment and constructing our specific reality based on some basic patterns. The older the more we do so, it's actually a pity, that we see more and more the same patterns, a bit boring maybe ... Therefore it is great to have children and grandchildren, young dogs and cats and to observe how they experience the world
We should not simply be proud on our brain power, but also a bit skeptic. What we have read is the result of conditioning as e.g. the formerly mentioned Deepak Chopra is saying viewtopic.php?f=13&t=261&p=1216&hilit=chopra#p1216, and others as well: context, culture, education, life experiences, history, how (and the way) we were educated or trained in kindergarten, school, university, etc. (mostly memorizing again and again in our school system). It might even be a more or less intentionally tricky fraud, typically used in - in the future CEP-based - neuromarketing, or false perception or illusion or augmented reality or so. We should see it as it is - that's the challenge: an actually senseless alliteration of signs we have only interpreted. Some years ago it was good to have such a brain in order to survive, to react on dangerous patterns fast enough, but today we do not need such a brain anymore, or we are more and more fooled if we live in one of the "developed countries":

Today's event processing - we feel alarmed more and more, although there is no tiger behind us who wants to eat us, perhaps our money or actually a number on our bank account because there is actually no physical money at all, only fiat-money
