Well, that is my hypothesis regarding the phenomena people often regard as telepathy.
You are talking about information. Yes you are correct and that's the point. Information can be simple, can be complex.
Intelligence is needed to draw a logical conclusion based on the data gathered. And the way this data is gathered can be a complex mechanism, not just like googling for information through google.
By looking into someone eyes, for example, I don't know how but many things can be "seen".
So, non verbal skill, body language, all related with this data transfer.
By definition or dictionary they are different, but they share the same mechanism (imo).
Intuition is similar to common logical thinking, where we see data and we make logical connection between these data to derive at an information (which then becomes data for another logical thinking process. The more intelligent, the more powerful this process cycle of creating data from data, hence more information gathering).
The thing is, most human conscious mind usually doesn't have the capability and speed of their unconscious mind, forgetting that our brain can work even when we are sleeping.
Take for example a "reflex" case. When some body punch you, the speed of the event is very high for slow analysis. But the thinking process is basically familiar: you see the opponent make a move with his shoulder, then his hand thrown in circle, and you calculate the orbit of this hand and calculate where and when it will reach at certain position near you. Based on this information/analysis then you make a move (which might be a counter attack).
That's why when your opponent hit/punch you with straight orbit of his hand, your eyes cannot predict/see and your reflex doesn't work. Other example is your opponent can move his hand very very slowly to catch your hand and only after he catch your hand he pull your hand at full speed and attack at the same time. This slow movement is to "prohibit" your reflex from functioning.
Note also that "intuition" only works with experts. A manager can make a strategical decision which look like an intuition, but it works only because he has so many "data" from his knowledge and experience.
Telepathy is using more or less related and similar mechanism. Study any examples mentioned in this thread, you can see how it works. Yes, sometimes it has to reach that "supranatural" area to explain the things. But isn't this no different than the quantum physics?
Just for fun,
Precognition.
Premonitions.
Guessing.
Where would the information for precognition come from?
Assuming there is a line between guessing and coincidence ..and precognition.
Internal guessing or information from a future source<<impossible correct.
To know an event is about to happen would either require the event to already have happened or the precognition makes the event happen.
Telepathy to know something you have no prior knowledge of, and information about something you could not guess. (from another source)

Yes. We have data and we connect the data to create information. The data and the process to connect them can be a conscious process or a subconscious one. Some people have better skill to observe these subconscious activities.
Some of those who believe in special relativity would believe it is possible but imho it is a misconception.
The bending of time ala "interstellar" is too complicated. Simpler to me is to accept that there are other creatures that we do not see. These creature can pass data or information without our internal logical thinking process, just like we can pass information to our dogs. But these creatures do not see the future.
If I got it correctly, this is probable imo. Psychologically or even worse than that: Once upon a time I even had a believe in the power of "suggestion".

Telepathy,
To talk to someone at a distance with no electronic aid!
Would it be via voice (probably not)
pictures images and feelings (possibly)
Please _____ help me, I cannot do this alone..(an attempt at telepathy)
Spirit contact...(telepathy)...etc etc..
Premonition.....(telepathy)...
All just for fun. 😀
And that you just know somethings going to happen...(Telepathy) or its a wild guess!

The possibility of creatures we cannot see..I could run with that.
The possibility of suggestion I can accept that as well, it depends on how you see the effect of influence if it is via slight of hand or by suggestion.
You have to ask the question how could someone know the future? (even if this was via creatures we cannot see)unless the future was set or already happened. Theoretically impossible..unless the future has already happened or it can be created at will.
I suppose you could argue that a decision can predict the future..ie I will make a cup of tea! and I make one..
I will get married etc I will buy that car..
The things beyond our control are difficult to predict..however I have had a few instances of it that I cannot explain.
But lets stick to Telepathy..unless the premonition is a warning via telepathy..
For any of this to be true, then the reality would have to be different to how we think its is.
Science creates a view of reality that we buy into and assume to be true because it is proven via experimentation.
We buy into it because there is no frame of reference we can use to think otherwise without ending up back in the dark ages.
We also have a good imagination which is a great source of entertainment and it can be misleading.

In reference to suggestion,
The power of self suggestion is very powerful, the power of suggestion by another is also very powerful.
The power of you over your body is also very powerful and the power you have on others.
Now if telepathy existed how much power could it have? But lets leave the spooks in the closet..🙂
If it did exist we are not ready for it we don't have a good enough firewall.<<<the so called protection!

When there is no proof/evidence I would like to believe it is a wild guess. But when there is an evidence, my the "other creature" theory makes it possible imho.
When will I accept something as evidence? When statistics show a little bit more than 60% of success or accuracy. When I was young, I didn't pay attention to statistics. I 100% believed in my power and I don't remember even once where I have mistaken. But that could be bias.
Many friends/people think I'm a psychic or similar, but in my adulthood I have tried to refuse that I have any connection to that silliness.
Its difficult to know how to say this, If you have strange happenings just watch them. I believe there are strange things in this life possibly as yet unexplained.
I believe it better to be a passive observer. Once you fall down the rabbit hole its very dark and hard to find a way out. The problem with the unseen is it is just that "unseen" and impossible to define the impact it could have on yourself and others.
I know what your talking about because I have a few things in the past. Its interesting because it gives you an avenue to possibly another reality, but its a burning rope to walk it is in my opinion dangerous.
Spontaneous vision or premonition can and has saved me a few times, and sometimes it just stops you in your tracks. Just watch and observe for fun.

And my answer was no one know the future. It's only guess works. But it can be accurate as predicting the weather. The more information you have, the more you know.
I sat with some Burmese monks to learn meditation.
I remember well the old guy who said," there are things that will try and lead you from the path but it is an illusion".
I know what you mean regards the more information idea.
However I don't trust anything these days. No1 is there are probably no answers!

I can only give you this example ( I have others but)
I am an EE and used to repair all types of equipment. so the repairs are about 50per 12 hour shift. So something like this is unusual and not a regular occurrence.
I did a repair on a machine that I have done many times before and after rewiring it I reached for the circuit breaker as I put my hand on it I saw in my mind the panel with flames coming out of it. I stopped and looked at the panel I reached for it again the same thing happened, so I checked all my work again and reached again for the breaker same thing happened.
I hesistated and looked at the operator he said whats wrong? I said I have this feeling this panel is going to ignite..I said I know its nuts just stand back I have to switch it on. I did and nothing happened..I laughed and walked away. After a few meters I had the operator shouting I looked back there was smoke pouring from the panel vents. I looked inside and the power transformer on the 415v 3 phase had burnt up. I changed it no further problem. NB not related to my work or repair. No other work just the Tx failed at that moment.
I have had lots of other stuff but, I leave well alone.
OK so its coincidence..😀..but its not the only instance..if its real how can anyone know the future its impossible.
I was with a group of people and saw someone do a similar thing just because it didn't feel right (He told someone to stop and not move the equipment was dead we had tested it several times) and it saved someone touching 6.6KV 500A live. His hand was about 6 inches from the bus section!
I know because I was talking to him and he kept say there's something wrong..I asked him what he said he didn't know just something wasn't right!

So you knew this machine. It means you know that the machine is not perfect. It was not perfect, because if it was perfect it wouldn't enter your workshop. And you should know where the imperfection lies. You may have seen this possibility before....
Somehow, you have become a paranoid person. You always think about bad things or accident...
Now, into statistics...
For every 10 times you feel something bad is going to happen, how many actually happened? 50%?
I don't have bad intention here. But I have been banned from several paranormal forums because of my views...
Think positive and understand this...
When you feel like seeing "the future", actually there is logical reasoning behind that. Find it out, and your sensitivity and ability to "predict" the future will improve. But it is not like knowing the future, but have sharp eyes on something, increased consciousness, or can see the subcoscious thinking process of your brain or body.
But you could be right and I am wrong of course.
I'm fluent in two languages but the more I think about it the less I can say that I think in english or german.
Even when I dream I dream in english if it involves people I use that language with and in german when the dream involves german friends or family.
It gets interesting when dreams involve both sets of people and the language I speak in my dreams flip easily between the two.
However both sets of people appear to understand either even when I know that they don't in reality.
The conclusion I drew is that my subconscious manifests my thoughts in which ever language appears to be appropriate at the time but I can't say with any certainty that I think in english or german at any one time.
OK in reference,
At the time this happened I was actually thinking, I can't wait to get this finished I have not had time to eat my lunch and I have three other breakdons before I can have a break.
So I didn't give a toss about the machine..it was yet another problem.
The image was bang in my head the moment my fingers touched the handle of the breaker.
NB I don't try to think about the future..these things are spontaneous. They happen at the most unexpected times.
JAY, you are probably right..If you had experienced what I have you might think differently.
I respect your views. I think most of paranormal is rubbish..but..
The machine was 160 foot in length with thousands of control systems not just something to wheel into a work shop!
PLC, HVDC, hydraulics, pneumatics, acid control, HDMI's ect..
