What did two bicycle mechanics see that a genius with perfect data and flawless logic couldn't? And why did the U.S. Army discover that teaching their elite soldiers to think more like computers was actually making them worse at their jobs?Here's the thing nobody tells you: every time you open an app, fill out a form, or stare at a menu trying to translate "I want something Italian that's healthy" into the categories a machine demands, you're training yourself to think like a computer. And computers, it turns out, are probability machines that can only see what's already happened. Your brain is a possibility machine that can imagine what's never existed. You just forgot how to use it.
