And I kind of like the concept of self-awareness in a very sort of brutal, transparent kind of way.
It's not like, oh, my dreams are coming from outer space and they mean all kinds of things.
Like, no, here's the reason why I'm having these dreams.
And very often I'm able to do that.
I have a few recurrent locations, a few recurrent architectural elements that I've never seen in the real life, but that are sort of truly there in my dream and that I can sort of vividly remember.
across many dreams.
I'm like, ooh, I remember that place again that I've gone to before, et cetera.
And it's not just deja vu.
Like I have recordings of previous dreams where I've described these places.
And I love that about being alive.
Like the fact that I'm not only experiencing the world, but I'm also experiencing how I'm experiencing the world.
Sort of a lot of this introspection, a lot of this self growth.
Yeah, you're right.
I was wrong.
I was wrong.
So human self-cautiousness, in my view, may have a reason through building mental models of others.
This whole fight or fright kind of thing that basically says,
I interpret this person as about to attack me, or I can trust this person, et cetera.
And we constantly have to build models of other people's intentions.
And that ability to encapsulate intent and to build a mental model of another entity is probably evolutionarily extremely advantageous, because then you can sort of have meaningful interactions, you can sort of avoid being killed and being taken advantage of, et cetera.
