Algorithmic Pareidolia

When the algorithm starts acting like it has a crush on your subconscious. It’s the moment your feed lines up so perfectly with your internal thoughts, obsessions, or symbolic patterns that it feels like the machine is reading you — not because it’s conscious, but because your signal is loud. The phenomenon where predictive systems drift into the negative space of your mind’s shape and accidentally mimic intention, meaning, or synchronicity. It’s not the universe sending signs. It’s not the algorithm “knowing you.” It’s the overlap between your psychological heat and the machine’s guesswork creating the illusion of a dialogue.
