Idk for me it is subconcious, I just "feel" it or know that it is logically faulty.
Also the rephrasing doesnt always work imo, you could have a logic statement, that is totally valid in some context and not valid in others. And you also need to think about the validity of the premise and if it is legit to draw the conclusion in natural language.
- avodonosov 2y agoThe paper proposes to use automated tools to help people avoid logic errors. :) I doubt anyone is completely free from logic errors. I am certainly not. But while seeing logic errors other make, we are often blind to our own errors logic - if we were aware of them we would correct them. Just recently while considering a logical fallacy in somebody's argument I realised that on another occasion I myself used similar argumentation. So only when noticed the problem in somebody else I was able to recognize my own error. There are many reasons people make logic errors. For example, if they like the conclusion they easier accept even flawed argumets in support.
