Doxastic involuntarism—talk about that.

AI RESPONSE

Try this honestly:

For the next 30 seconds, believe that 2 + 2 = 5.

You can say the sentence.
You can imagine a world where it’s true.
But you can’t actually believe it.

Why?
Because belief tracks what appears true, not what you want to be true.

That’s doxastic involuntarism in action.
