I don't appreciate the sarcasm. If you're confused then say so, save the snark for someone else. If you're asking a sincere question then you can go outside and watch a few animals navigate the world. Squirrels are a good one, as are crows and ravens. Or as the kids say these days, you should touch some real grass instead of virtual ones.

It was a genuine question, I've not heard an intuitive or simple explanation of the concept. Your assumed combative tone is very reminiscent of others I've heard bring up the concept though (like Gary Marcus). I still haven't been able to hear a good and simple explanation though from your cohort despite my genuine curiosity.
