What is autopilot in a human? Like why is it that I space out when driving for example and you have no idea how you got to where you are at or when your walking around and then suddenly its like you regained Consciousness after being absent minded?

The majority of what you do everyday is muscle memory and conditioned responses.. you’d be surprised to learn that almost everything you do is just because your muscles remember how to do it and just do it automatically.. driving, walking, breathing, riding bikes, martial arts, playing games, typing.. this even transforms into other things like doing math and solving certain repetitive problems.. just think how often you answer things with out thinking..actually think how often you do just about everything in your life without thinking. Muscle memory and conditioned responses.. your life is an autonomic response.. you live on autopilot.
