Trained Intuition

Trained intuition is the episode’s distinction between raw impulse and reliable fast judgment. In E161.脱离理性暴政,去尽情游戏吧!, 关雅迪 argues that system-one trust becomes useful only after system-two work: learning, repetition, feedback, review, conversation, and direct bodily experience.

The concept is important because the episode’s “leave rational tyranny” theme can otherwise be misread as anti-reason. The source’s actual claim is narrower: reason should train intuition and then stop micromanaging moments where the body has learned enough to act.

Key Claims

  • Intuition without training can be impulse, fantasy, or avoidance.
  • Reliable intuition is built from repeated exposure to real feedback.
  • System-two analysis remains necessary for planning, learning, safety, and postmortem reflection.
  • In high-speed or high-pressure moments, overthinking can degrade performance after the relevant skills are already trained.
  • Trusting the body requires knowing which body signals are safe, dangerous, misleading, or fatigue-induced.
  • Physical practices such as running, sailing, climbing, and sport can make the training loop visible.
