Milk of Amnesia

General anethesia: The medication used to put a patient to sleep in the operating room. This drug is called Propofol. It is referred to as Milk of Amnesia due to its milky-white color and because it puts patients to sleep leaving no memory of the surgery.

Hard Problem of Agnosticism

The paralysis of perpetual withholding. Agnosticism claims that the existence of God is unknown and perhaps unknowable. The hard problem is that this intellectual position offers no guidance for living. Life forces decisions that implicitly assume a worldview. Whether you choose to pray, pursue material success, or devote your life to charity, you are acting as if the universe has a certain character (meaningful, indifferent, benevolent). Agnosticism, taken purely, is a state of suspended animation. In practice, most "agnostics" are functional atheists or vague spiritualists, because pure agnosticism is existentially unworkable—it's a spectator sport in a game where everyone is forced to play.
Example: A true agnostic is asked on their deathbed, "Do you seek forgiveness or make peace with nothingness?" They respond, "I cannot know which is appropriate." The hard problem: While intellectually honest, this stance provides no compass. It's like refusing to choose a path at a fork in the road because the map is unclear, yet starving to death while deliberating. Agnosticism is the ultimate "maybe," but life demands a series of "yeses" and "nos." Its purity is its practical irrelevance, making it less a settled position and more a permanent state of inquiry without conclusion. Hard Problem of Agnosticism.

Smith-Sauer AI Amnesia Effect

A cognitive bias wherein individuals, after identifying clear errors or limitations in AI-generated content within their own area of expertise, nevertheless continue to place undue confidence in the same AI’s output on topics outside their expertise. This phenomenon reflects a selective skepticism: the observed unreliability of AI is compartmentalized rather than generalized, leading to inconsistent trust in the technology.
Jared, a software engineer, noticed that the AI couldn’t correctly format a for-loop in Python. Ten minutes later, he trusted it to draft a legally binding employment contract. Classic Smith-Sauer AI Amnesia Effect.

Selective temporary amnesia

A common mental disorder developed during HR and legal investigations where people forget important details that would show them in poor light.
Honey sugar, I had to pop two pirin tablets for my selective temporary amnesia, not to mention show my outrage with, “What?! how rude! People do such things in the workplace?!” on the HR query on why I decked that cuntbag.
