my understanding of intuition is that it's a construction like all the other concepts, how it's constructed is not clear, but it's a construct non the less, just like someone really has a 'gut feeling' against mask, and use another our brain to construct a 'theory' and 'analysis' why it's wrong. this 'superpower' idea is as stupid as saying that 'freedom' and 'personal choice' can make you immune to virus. |

I'm not sure we mean construct in the same way but for me intuition is a construct in the sense that you interpret the data.
That's the same as saying visual data from your eyes your brain is interpreting that and you're constructing which is the sense in which it's a construct... You're constructing a picture of the reality of the visual landscape around you based on that sense data.
For me intuition is another sense (a sixth or extra sense like they say in this article) and and when I'm operating or experiencing the sense I am interpreting the sense data. One thing which makes it different to other senses is that in other senses the interpretation happens almost seamlessly and imperceptibly. Except when you do things like maybe optical illusions or other things which reveal the nature of the you interpretive perceptual apparatus or whatever you want to call it.
When I use my power then it's very clear that I am getting data and interpreting...it is almost two separate processes.
