Human brain is complex. Subhanallah. That is why machine will never be able to mirror one's mind; very random at every second. Give one word and you can generate different ideas from that particular given word. Human's minds are unpredictable. That is the beauty of it which never bores me of living.

I recalled my meal time with mates. I sat there ordering the same spicy nasi lemak, yet the rice seemed more interesting than the topics discussed around the table. All the topics were centralised mostly from Facebook newsfeed, which I had randomly scrolled down the page in the morning. Everyone tried to be the so-called "specialists", just talking out loud the ideas which had been written from random Facebook newsfeed. Be it an economist, politician, philosopher, religious idol etc. One wants to be everyone. "The specialist", who have read the most (from Facebook) and seemingly had the most practical and reasonable ideas to match into the discussion group favour.
If you saw the movie "The Imitation Game" where a group of mathematicians tried to decipher messages from a complex German's machine called Enigma, they kept it secret once they managed to decode it, Brits won the war. The unsung heroes were working underground. No one ever knew their works.
Now back to the table, let say if I was one the Brits and my mates were Germans. The game here is to win the attention of the table. For instance, I have read about the news on Rohingya refugees, I proudly presented on their unique roots and why they were running from their country in the first place. My mates who were Germans would not repeat the same ideas of the topic, of course, in order to win the attention from the others. They need to change the game in order to win over me. Thus, this requires me to do a lot more of reading outside of the common source. Unique, reliable source. Then, I will win this war. If this is ever a war. Of attention (me being very little sarcastic).

Our country is now lacking of real specialists. Everyone can be in the media. Everyone can propose their ideas without having a solid background of the field. Instead of following the words from real experts, we instead in favours of following the trends. We are at the losing side because we are predictable. Mention MyVi, Rohingya, 1MDB, Tabung Haji, Pacman etc. once you open your mouth, you are predictable. If this is a war, we have lost. Big time.
