As Donald Hoffman says, to take things seriously doesn't mean to take them literally. You take the tiger seriously because you need to survive, in the same way you don't put the blue folder on your computer screen on the recycle bin. Not because there is actually there a blue folder that get deleted in the recycle bin. Literally there is no tiger and no blue folder.
Besides, you are not doing pattern re-cognition, you are doing pattern cognition, i.e. creation out of nothing.
