The whole argument around it is not how we perceive it but how camera perceived it in a flawed lighting condition.
That’s like taking a shitty 2 Mpix photo with a potato from 2003 and truncate it to 8 bits and then claim broccoli is fucking blue because the camera had no fucking concept of a tone mapping or color temperature and captured it as blue.
Also if you put color picker on it it’ll be in the white spectrum and barely register a mild hint of blue. And if the dress was blue, then you’re one shitty ass photographer and has nothing to do with our actual eyes. You can make a blue dress look almost white. Anyone who ever had aquarium with beautiful metallic blue fish and used wrong lighting and turned them into bland beige silver color will know what I’m talking about.
It’s not as simple as that. There actually is a human perception element. Take a copy and ask a few people what they see. Even while you are all looking at the exact same thing, people can disagree. It can even happen to you where the colours flip.
Colors do not just magically flip, not outside of gradient variances and medical conditions. This is absurd bs just like this whole “viral” debate where people were arguing over how camera captured the stupid dress. The camera captured it in that stupid way to look entirely different, not my eyes. Even color picker in image editor proves that on the photo of the dress, the gold is gold and the white is so far washed out blue that can easily be declared white. Are you going to claim mathematical tool has wrong perception of color too?

It is clearly blue and black on this photo.
Photoshop’s color picker disagrees with you…
Are you blind?
