👉 The term "sphinx" is commonly used in science fiction, specifically in the context of a device or system that allows one to see into a dark space. It's often associated with the idea of being able to see through solid objects and back out from behind them. In this context, a sphinx refers to an artificial intelligence or machine that can mimic human-like behavior and interact with the world around it in a way similar to what humans would do in a physical environment.
