thumbnail-text: 'Figure 1: Top panels: A demonstration of the illusion of absence. Although all the objects in Panel A are hidden behind the violet ‘bubbled’ occluder in Panel B, it is curiously difficult to imagine that they are really there. Bottom panels: A demonstration of amodal completion. The two fingers are experienced as a single long finger when they are partially occluded by the box (Panel D). Note that this illusory impression persists even though it is quite absurd and contradicts your conscious knowledge.'

## Sort By Magic

::: {demo-type="sort-by-magic-preface"}
Annotations sorted by machine learning into [inferred \'tags\'](/design#future-tag-features){#gwern-design--future-tag-features
.link-annotated-partial}. This provides an alternative way to browse: instead of by *date* order, one can browse in *topic* order. The \'sorted\' list has been automatically clustered into multiple sections & auto-labeled for easier browsing.

Beginning with the newest annotation, it uses the embedding of each annotation to attempt to create a list of nearest-neighbor annotations, creating a progression of topics. For more details, see the link.
