    when WE hallucinate, it’s because our internal predictive models are flying off the rails filling in the blanks based on assumptions rather than referencing concrete sensory information and generating results that conflict with reality.

    Is it really? You make it sound like this is a proven fact.

      i mean, idk about the assumptions part of it, but if you asked a psych or a philosopher, im sure they would agree.

      Or they would disagree and have about 3 pages worth of thoughts to immediately exclaim otherwise they would feel uneasy about their statement.
