This is interesting actually. And reminds me of something vaguely - a book or something that describes how human attention and the things we see are highly optimized by evolution. We often miss a lot of details in reality due to this.


If it were a Fiction novel then might I suggest Blindsight by Peter Watts?


not fiction. Maybe like a System 1 vs System 2 thing from Thinking, Fast and Slow by Kahneman.

ChatGPT mentioned The Case Against Reality but I never read that, the idea was similar.


Maybe one of the books by Douglas Hofstadter? Godel Escher Bach? or I Am A Strange Loop?
