Cant believe she thought this would be boring, this is hella interesting Also, she's a beast for this, the explanation does not make it less awesome

[@eatmypost9500]

its pretty awesome, i myself can never imagine doing something like this, just remembering those pairs is insane

[@potatoeoverlord9430]

I wonder if in her mind, having that system does make it pretty easy so she thinks it wouldn't be that impressive. But to most people, that doesn't really sound like it would make it that much easier and can even just add another layer of complexity if your brain isn't good at translating those kinds of concepts back and forth.

[@ivankawnartist]

It's only entertaining for the moment. It's not something you "write home about." It's overall boring. Not a diss to her.

[@OPUP]

Yeah, it's like someone breaking down a backflip, sure you understand the parts of it, but then you jump in the air and do a backflip. However you pull that off is incredible. I think her dad was very impressed. While he wasn't exactly gushing and he didn't give her 'genius' at the end he was very humble in her accomplishment and recalled that story of him finding her gifted as a young child.

[@gnoogie]

@@potatoeoverlord9430 the system itself is crazy to me. making an entire coded method to remembering something is beyond my comprehension. the sheer amount of info shes saying she can visualize at the same time is superhuman to me.

[@JakeIsLearning]

The "so you can do more?" lol

[@elementneon]

I love the tough love, and wanting to understand her process, and the father just answering with his fact based logic, no sugar-coating or fakeness. So wholesome.

typical asian parent things, kinda fucks you up in the long run tho

[@secondeye1574]

@@faxd3448 Yeah, I sometimes feel like some people are so protective of their culture that they'll praise lowkey toxic parenting behavior because of it lol. But oh well future generations will phase it out

[@MitraKesava]

I do not love it, it feels very dismissive and you can see her face the whole time as she desperately tries to get him to understand and the best she gets out of him is a "maybe."

From the small bits of stream content ive seen of emily and her parents, they seem to rarely compliment her... but this was very nice to see her dad noticed her talent and ability to remember so well. Cool.

[@justink1985]

The ending is typical dad behavior, can't just say, yes you're smart or yes you did well, that "maybe.." lmao, but was wholesome af.

[@Lilicoder]

Too real

[@unknownentity8256]

More like a typical Asian parent behaviour, you can be in the top 1% in testing and still "good job but, not number #1".

[@mikemike6182]

thats normal, because they dont want us to be satisfy with 1 achievement, always go for more.

[@pkrmkn31]

@@unknownentity8256 he right though. Being born with an unnatural ability is not the same as learning it yourself.

[@rumfordc]

the dad is right, we don't know if she's done well yet because she hasn't actually applied her time to anything productive. reading a book is not an accomplishment, but learning something from a book that improves the lives of the people around you is an accomplishment.

She could get really good at chess in a short amount of time. Memory and pattern recognition are very important in that game.

At 5 Emily's parents realized she was a alien freak from another planet. (But not the same thing as IQ)

[@jonathanscott3914]

Thats a super interesting way of memorizing stuff. Im definitely not a person who can visualize things that well just in my head

[@sugo8920]

he can't just say yes lol

[@jorge3234]

As a typical Asian dad, it just isn’t programmed in him to say that

[@elementneon]

Being white, I feel like just saying yes is a very white parent thing to do, no trying to understand the process, or showing interest in complex conversation about the subject, just agreeing to appease and moving on.

[@mitigamespro8757]

@@elementneon Exactly I was surprised when he insisted she tells him even tho she said it was boring, and he followed along well and seriously.

​@@elementneon I'm black and my parents are the same way. I don't think it's a race thing, but cultural.

[@onlyme0349]

@@elementneon you can kinda see her vying for his praise though this kind of though love has the potential to leave a kid who is less talented stunted, we see this as good here because she's continued to make it, there are so many families where this is not the case and the parents continued pressure becomes toxic towards that child making them feel like they're never enough

10 hours to memorize it... this is seriously some top level IQ shit...

I used something like this during my high school and uni years, picked it up from Kevin Trudeau's Mega Memory book.

[@ieetnoobs]

I would lover for her to write down the entire story on paper for Pi. would be funny to see

[@st.ashhole4192]

Shes my favorite 1 of the group

[@GugilusVugilusMagnus]

Emily is a princess in her number palace. 😂

[@antonhud4270]

My parents wouldn't ever call me smart either, for fear of my ego ruining me, or because of accuracy like her dad saying memorization doesn't necessarily corelate to IQ. My brother memorized digits of pi for extra credit because he struggled in math, but he did it through rote memorization. I did practice the tricks for quick mental math though. I've read about the visual memorization technique, but never used it, and failed Fraternity tests that it could've helped with.

[@si_weeb]

Girl be slayin dad and he don't even know it. Emily has some BIG BALLS, Queen 💖🤟

[@fluke420]

LOL...no way he's saying smart. His girl is using her remarkable intelligence unconventionally and he does not approve

[@rumfordc]

a piece of paper can store 10 thousand digits of pi

[@charismatic9467]

I mean she has a photographic memory. It's not really impressive in terms of it's not a skill but something she was born with. Obviosuly people are going to take this to mean I'm talking trash or being negative, but I'm just pointing out that this is very typical for those with a photographic memory. In the same way dunking a basketball is very typical for a 7 ft person.

[@ufva8029]

I don't agree, because she was born with it doesn't make it less impressive in my opinion. Most amazing mind skills are from people born with it.

[@charismatic9467]

@@ufva8029 My point is that learned skills are more impressive than genetic traits aka a 5 ft person dunking a basketball is much more impressive than a 7 ft person

[@Quartzilla]

​@@charismatic9467 But it was a learned skill---she didn't just start stream and recite the digits right away, she had to make use of a technique she'd read about, and she spent a lot of time (over 10 hours IIRC) perfecting that technique, getting progressively better as she kept trying. That's learning! Even if you assume that this was only possible because of some rare genetic talent she has (and I doubt that is the case---I reckon most people could do this if they put in a similar amount of effort), that doesn't change the fact that she had to learn something to turn that potential into an actual accomplishment.

[@charismatic9467]

@@Quartzilla Yeah the same way a 7 ft tall person would have to learn the technique of dunking

[@rumfordc]

if you listen to her process, its not photographic. its narrative memory. she compresses and then reconstructs the image rather than storing it and accessing it directly.

[@FromZeroToArtist]

Is she saying she has a photographic memory? with the mind palace thing?

[@nicholasmercer6397]

Did you watch the video?

[@rumfordc]

she said she visualizes it but that seems to have been mispoken. what she describes is a process where she compresses the digits into a story of characters, and then plays the story back as digits are needed. this would be something like "narrative memory"

[@MitraKesava]

Dude Asian parents just don't seem to be good at praising their children for any accomplishment that isn't traditionally understood or accepted by mainstream society. He means well but this interaction breaks my heart a little bit. This explains Emily's constant desire to please and appease.

[@kuya5k]

I think that's interesting you saw it that way. To me him being so interested in actually understanding how she did it felt much more thoughtful than just telling her good job enthusiastically

[@Seoken_]

@@kuya5k Exactly. The fact that he kept asking questions and wanted to better understand her thought process shows how interested/caring he is. He was genuinely interested in understanding how her mind works, and was impressed because it was such an unusual way to perceive the world. People can say "you did a good job" etc without actually saying those words. Their interest and enthusiasm IS their support.

[@gyul6380]

It's not directly said but it is very implied based on his actions. He was very curious about it and asked a lot of questions which made a very fun interaction and that is always better than just saying "that's good" and then end of conversation.

[@zengrath]

Dad thinks she's maybe smart, haha.

[@HMPRODIGY]

Its pretty funny because his response to her being smart is a "maybe" He literally said she had great memory skills and honestly i think its the most important factor in learning aka being smart tbh (just my opinion)

[@ivankawnartist]

You had me in the first half

[@Tom-dd3vl]

I'd say pattern recognition is much more important than simple memorization

[@rumfordc]

memory is a double edged sword. a piece of paper can store 10 digits of pi, that doesn't make the paper smart. of course, she is smart regardless of her ability to memorize digits. the father is smarter though.

[@ivankawnartist]

@@rumfordc A piece of paper has no memory. Where does this comparison come into play? LOL. 🤣🤣🤣 Huge comedy!

[@rumfordc]

@@ivankawnartist it actually has a lot of memory, as much text or imagery as you can fit on it, but no intelligence.
