Is intuition a sense - or is that potentially some people excelling at reading physical cues that 99.999999% of people can't see or relate to what someone is then likely thinking?
- Waterluvian 2y agoIntuition isn’t a sense. There’s no data being measured. Intuition is a processing and synthesizing of past and sometimes presently sensed data into some meaning. When I understand “sense” in this context I’m understanding “sensor.” A sensor is measuring something. I think the closest I can get to telepathy without it being a completely wild paradigm shift in understanding is if we could implant technology directly into our brains, thus introducing new sensors.
- loceng 2y agoThere are "famous" people on YouTube who seem very telepathic-psychic - but I suppose people would really only become a believer if they have an anecdotal experience themselves that defies all odds.
- Waterluvian 2y agoIf it’s real, it will survive scrutiny and people will believe the evidence.
- lxgr 2y agoThere are all kinds of famous people, on Youtube and elsewhere, that believe (or claim to believe) the most absurd things. Why would that matter in the slightest, especially given that their purported abilities all seem to flee to another dimension as soon as they're under scientific evaluation?
- autorizo 2y agoIntuition i think much more data driven than you say. I think probably it’s just subconscious calculations

- ErigmolCt 2y agoI think you're absolutely right. Intuition can be understood as a form of subconscious calculation.
- ErigmolCt 2y agoI think emotions play a significant role in intuition.
