Summary:
The world is an unpredictable place. But the brain has evolved a way to cope with the everyday uncertainties it encountersit doesnt present us with many of them, but instead resolves them as a realistic model of the world. The bodys central controller predicts every contingency, using its stored database of past experiences, to minimize the element of surprise. Take vision, for example: We rarely see objects in their entirety but our brains fill in the gaps to make a best guess at what we are seeingand these predictions are usually an accurate reflection of reality.
