Pattern recognition is arguably the critical first step in intelligence - be it natural or artificial. Science could not exist if humans were not able to spot regularities. Only subsequently do we analyze and classify them, and ultimately come up with underlying descriptions, some of which eventually make it to the lofty status of natural laws. Of course evolution did NOT ENDOw humans (or animals for that matter) with the ability to recognize patterns so we could build grandiose scientific edifices, rather we need that ability at the most elementary level. Humans simply cannot function in everyday life without pattern recognition capabilities and when those capabilities are impaired, as in patients with Alzheimer's disease for example, the result is nothing less than tragic.
