There are intuitions that we value as the grammatical intuition of a child who, without having a lot of grammatical knowledge, achieves an adequate use of the language. But what about statistical, political intuition or the controversial aesthetic intuition? This is a topic that touches epistemology, philosophy and psychology. I will hold your comments in high
The greatest thinkers relied on intuition (Einstein, of course). Some people think intuition understanding is guessing. It's not. It's about drawing connections together without writing them down, unacknowledged reading, unacknowledged thinking.
They are a form of perception via the unconscious and give us insights, hunches and lead us to possibilities. They are a unique problem solving function, but work much better when related to the other functions.
