AI overview
Pseudoscience refers to ideas or practices that claim to be scientific but lack the rigorous evidence and methods of genuine science, such as phrenology's discredited claim that skull bumps could predict personality traits. It matters because pseudoscientific claims can mislead people into accepting false beliefs, as happened when phrenology was widely accepted before being proven wrong.
