    “People seem to have a preference for centralization in everything they think and do. People tend to look for the cause, the reason, the driving force, the deciding factor. When we observe patterns and structures in the world, we often assume centralized causes where none exist.”

        This is what Mitchel Resnick of @MediaLab describes as “Centralized Thinking” in his book “Turtles, Termites, and Traffic Jams: Explorations in Massively Parallel Microworlds” (1994)https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40798.Turtles_Termites_and_Traffic_Jams …

        so clearly spoken people need to raise their awareness about root causes and proximate causes most of life is proximate causes, and real root-causes are rare outside of math, computer science and isolated experiments

        May be this is why we ask questions like why we exist and what is the meaning of all this. It's our brain's need to find central cause to complete its world model. May be these questions are futile outside our brain.

        would love to read it, but a book is a centralized resource written usually by one person from one point of view,,, would rather get my wisdom from here there and everywhere =)

        I think much of this is a result of how our brains model action and causality - we look for the centralized "cause" because that is what our models need, not what may exist in the world (but the model must be effective in some way).

        Biases exist in all experiential learning. All assumptions are based on individual's model of the world. New ideas, radical thoughts are what opens our mind to newer experiences and better assumptions.

        I think people tend to look for a meaning/purpose behind everything that happens in the world. As everyone perceives world to be centered around them, they tend to apply this centralization to all things happening around them.

        This is relevant for AI implementation if we want systems with similar mental properties as humans

        This sounds very much like the concept behind causality that the Merovingian spoke of in matrix reloaded. 😀😀
