Buddhism finds intuition to be a faculty in the mind of immediate knowledge. Buddhism puts the term intuition beyond the mental process [clarification needed] of conscious thinking, as conscious thought cannot necessarily access subconscious information, or render such information into a communicable form.

Intuitive decision-making can be described as the process by which information acquired through associated learning and stored in long-term memory is accessed unconsciously to form the basis of a judgment or decision. [3] This information can be transferred through effects induced by exposure to available options, or through unconscious cognition.
Jung wrote: "Intuition, in the introverted attitude, is directed upon the inner object, a term we might justly apply to the elements of the unconscious. The relation of inner objects to consciousness is entirely analogous to that of outer objects, although theirs is a psychological and not a physical reality.

Artificial intuition is theoretically (or otherwise) a sophisticated function of an artifice that is able to interpret data with depth and locate hidden factors functioning in Gestalt psychology, [10] [11] and that intuition in the artificial mind would, in the context described here, be a bottom-up process upon a macroscopic scale identifying ...
