I've seen it happen with one of my friends, he's a chemist, but he "generated" a nice idea about matter/anti-matter imbalance, complete with some formulas and a way to experimentally test the idea. I see almost the exact same pattern of thought in this article.
I'm anxiously waiting to see what happens in future with this.

“The fundamental architecture of animal brains (including human brains) is probably composed of Bayesian networks that are highly competent expectation-generators that don’t have to comprehend what they are doing. Comprehension—our kind of comprehension—is only made possible by the arrival on the scene quite recently of a new kind of evolutionary replicator—culturally transmitted informational entities: memes."

>>>No two people in the world share the exact same belief system. Actually this is far from what I am observing - if there is a will, all the people will believe in the same belief system. Modern social bubles are not an exception to this - including Y Combinator bubble. So, this sounds like a biased fallacy. That is a side effect of how our minds are functioning and how open they are to any influence.
>>>The structure of a belief is highly sophisticated. If that was even close to reality, religions, cults and even corporate mindsets would not exist. Your mind want things to simplify and adjust to your own limited capabilities, because the simplier things are, the less energy they require and less headaches it causes.
>>>I suspect it starts with how we perceive the world from the moment we exist as mere cells — perhaps even earlier, embedded in our DNA. This statement is what I find very problematic in this essey(or should we call it and ad blurb) and most unscientific.
>>>While this might look as the future for adiem the present is educating and addressing more urgent needs like social anxiety and ADHD both human reactions when dealing with unbalanced entropy. Quite a lot of crap has nothing to do with experiences on how different people on spectrum has to deal with. Most of experiences what I have observed to other people on spectrum and I am experiencing and focus I have is remnant of hunter society... unfortunatelly people on spectrum seems to be more determined to change society according to their needs and unability to do so is what makes us very anxious.
There is no difference for your mind between physical and "digital" entities. Words can hurt as much as a stab in a heart.
>>>These associations are then stored in a vast, unconscious library — a spherical one, with ourselves at its center. Frankly, this is an issue, as none of that has anything to do with how things are processed in our minds. Maybe you should aktuallly do some reading about the topic. No need to become specialist, but general knowledge update would be necessary. And improve on that for the benefit of the rest of us. Because this all is low key effort.
