[Akira The Don, Scott Adams - Pattern Recognition Machines lyrics]
Pattern recognition
Once you realize that the humans
Are not logical machines
We're pattern recognition machines
Pattern recognition machines
And so, pattern recognition that isn't
Very good pattern recognition is what makes
You a racist
Pattern recognition is what makes
You an ageist, a sexist, everything bad
Because your patterns are all you have
You're not really a logical person
Who reasons everything out
Your brain isn't big enough
You wouldn't have enough time so instead
You default to these little biases
Which are determined by pattern
We're pattern recognition machines
Pattern recognition machines
Your patterns are all you have
You're not really a logical person
Now the problem is many of
Those patterns are fake let's say
You had met three Elbonians in
Your life and every one
Of them slapped you in the face with a glove
The next time you met an Elbonian, you'd
Be like, "Oh, no thank you
I don't wanna get slapped in
The face with a glove
Those last three Elboninans were
Pretty rough on me"
But, it's only three Elbonians
The odds that your pattern is predictive
Probably low (Probably low)
We fall victim to patterns
But you can also use patterns
To convince people of things
If you are consistent, people will say, "Oh
This person's always honest"
So patterns are a tool
But they're also our biggest defect
They're also our biggest defect
We're pattern recognition machines
Pattern recognition machines
Your patterns are all you have
You're not really a logical person
We're pattern recognition machines
Pattern recognition machines
Your patterns are all you have
You're not really a logical person
And then of course understanding the brain
As a visualization machine is very
Very important (Very, very important)
Because visualization is the biggest, most
Powerful part of your brain
It's the part that influences you most
(Part that influences you most)
Understanding the brain as a
Visualization machine is very
Very important (Very very important)
Because visualization is the biggest, most
Powerful part of your brain
It's the part that influences you most
Once you realize that the humans
Are not logical machines
We're pattern recognition machines
Pattern recognition machines
And so, pattern recognition that isn't
Very good pattern recognition is what makes
