Hi John Mikes I think intuition is something like looking for a familiar face in a crowd if you are lost.
That somehow has to do with context or memory. One way home feels more right than the other way home. Maybe you don't know the name of the street, or even if the street itself looks familiar, you may want to walk more to the housing than to the business district. You aren't sure, but you place some trust (faith) in going that way.

According to (you?) computers are never aware of anything, so everything they produce is intuition. Brent ? Dear Brent, ? to 'your' part: is an urge to find some solution one of your "thought processes"? In speculation you may not realize the train of thoughts leading to whatever is popping up as a solution. It may happen even WITHOUT the urgency I mentioned. Let us say: Just an 'idea' pops up - it may be called intuition. If you are ordered, you may assign it to problems that occupied your mind lately. ? To 'computers': whenever a computer "produces" a result it is algorithmically based on data IN the hardware/software (you may call it the 'awareness of the computer.)? Proper semantics of new (developing?) territories is of paramount importance.? You are usually VERY clear on such: would your AI agree to such definition, added: a suiting ID for intuition as well? (I might have a hard time to identify intuition. The closest I may come up to NOW is: we may cut into peripheral 'shaving'?nto the limits of our knowledge (I call that "creativity") and that may combine into existing questions as callable 'intuition').
