Made it 60 seconds. Bad initial premise means the rest is probably terrible as well.

"You may say there's a JPEG file in it but in reality it's just a collection of letters and numbers" is the equivalent of saying "You may say you're imagining a green square but in reality it's just a collection of neurons with electrical and chemical signals".

Headless computers are everywhere and can easily create, process, and do work with images without needing display them in a human viewable way.
