Finally, the speed at which you communicate vibing means you’re communicating almost purely from System 1, expressing your actual felt beliefs. It makes deception both of yourself and others much harder. Its much more likely to reveal your true colors. This allows it to act as a values screening mechanism as well.
I’m personally skeptical of this. I’ve found I’m far more likely to lie than I’d endorse when vibing. Saying “sure I’d be happy to join you on X event” when it is clear with some thought that I’d end up disliking it. Or exaggerating stories because it fits with the vibe.
I view System-1 as less concerned with truth here, it is the one that is more likely to produce a fake-argument in response to a suggested problem. More likely to play social games regardless of if they make sense.
Oh yes, if you’re going on people’s words, it’s obviously not much better, but the whole point of vibing is that it’s not about the words. Your aesthetics, vibes, the things you care about will be communicated non-verbally.
I predict you would enjoy the free-association game better if you cultivated the skill of vibing more.
