I am so sure because of the self-evidence of my experience, the results of 2 millennia of analysis into the nature of cognition and experience, and consideration of the material composition of our organism (we obviously have lots of critical analog components, which are not selecting tokens, but instead connecting with flows from other continua).

Prediction is obviously involved in certain forms of cognition, but it obviously isn't all there is to the kinds of beings we are.
