Guessing is how we work at our core brain level. once we start any action we are guessing the next steps such as if we move down a flight of stairs and only if something happens that does nor meet our guessing aka expectation than this will be alerted to our conscious level. The same happens if we get any input we instantly start guessing regardless if we know the pattern. As such acting on something learned and remembered always takes the second level. With AI it is always the other way around since recognition is always the first step and guessing is the worst step scenario.
The truly funny thing is now that our education works the way that we are not human, but artificial in our intelligence. We all focus on patterns and knowledge and try to teach ourselves to ourselves that guessing is a second level task completely ignoring the way our brain works. So if you really want to be successful it is important to prioritise guessing over knowledge.We often also refer as that guessing as institution or some special gift. This first time guessing however will always have the highest score in finding the right answer as it follows our brains architecture. Recalling knowledge on the other hand follow an intentional process in our brain with a huge number of components involved, so down to the complexity it can never be as efficient as guessing.
