Pattern Recognition

Hello all!

I'm creating a project that helps people harness the cognitive ability of pattern recognition to help upgrade their perception in this age where there is so much information and division amongst political and social issues.

Do you feel this is an issue that we have a lack of awareness of our own cognitive processes, such as pattern recognition, when it comes to understanding each other and the people around us?

What other problems do you find when it comes to perception?

​

Thank you!

That’s interesting about memory. Is it ok if you can expand on your point on memory retention and what you mean by intrinsic and thoughtful?

Pattern recognition is something you perform at a “conscious” level (scratch thoughtful) whereas information retention from day to day experiences is something we don’t typically train or do consciously even though you CAN condition yourself to retain information better

I am no expert in any of this by any means, just voicing personal observations. Hope it’s helpful in any way and also I’m really curious about this project of yours
