I'm not sure what this even means.

I meant you should actively seek out ways in which you're seeing patterns where there aren't any.

Ok, I see what you're getting at.

"Bias: your pattern recognition is overzealous" would be a great companion essay, which I would love to read. Especially ideas for countering it.

A line from that essay showing up at the end of the "Bias: you think it's about you/your species, but it isn't" essay seems quite.. random.

Sorry.

"Miss pareidolia" isn't quite as catchy as "see randomness."
