Can you explain your tastes? Why you prefer an apple to an orange for instance? Not really.
Can you explain how you had the intuition for a certain idea ? No you can explain why it works but not how the intuition came.
- wsdookadr 3y agoThis isn't a question of taste. The topic can't be trivialized to a choice between apples and oranges. I actually reject your entire last message.
- elcomet 3y agoMy point is that most of our actions are intuitive and cannot be explained. maybe this is similar to system 1 vs system 2.
- wsdookadr 3y agoIt's fine if you want to refer to Kahneman's classification [1] of instinctual and thorough thinking. Explainability is a separate topic. Also when the amount of energy and compute used are as high as they are.. the results, the return on investment really isn't that high. Hopefully there are better days ahead.
