In cognitive psychology, chunking is a process by which small individual pieces of a set of information are bound together to create a meaningful whole later on in memory. Wikipedia Perhaps It is quite amazing what we know about our brains. It is even more amazing what we don’t know about it yet.

So much is swirling around us so fast no human can possibly keep up. It will only get exponentially faster I suppose. Welcome to the singularity. What I see happening very soon, which is exciting to investors and businesses but scary and sad for workers is that everyone will start working on a last project that will train the AI to replace their own job....
