Imagine you learn about some new conjecture in mathematics, and you try to predict when it will be resolved. Your prediction says that there is a 50% chance that the conjecture is resolved in the next 25 years, and a 90% chance it is resolved in the next 50 years. So, conditional on the conjecture not being resolved in the next 25 years, there is an 80% chance the conjecture is resolved in the subsequent 25 years. Wouldn't that be a little strange? |
