We can only do this empathic inference because of the underlying neurological architecture we share. It is not always possible for arbitrary people to empathically infer the behaviour of another arbitrary person. This is why not everyone can pass the Turing test.
For people that fit in to different neurological profiles (e.g. apathetic people and uber empathic people, the inferential distance may be too much). Not everyone can put themselves in a sociopath’s shoes for example.
I ask because Quarendo’s comment was about the impact of the technique if implemented, and yours seems to be about how we cannot expect the technique to be universally applicable in the first place.

Query: was this meant to be a top-level reply?
