Do you think there’s a difference between making an inference and judging?

Making an inference sounds like you're using data to form an opinion, while a judgment could be based on anything or nothing at all.

Yes there is a difference. Though how many people are truly objective is what causes those lines to blur.
They could be seen as the same

To me, inference is a conclusion based on assumptions.
Things already known concluded to a logical assumption.
To the receiver, it could be a judgement, if they are feeling guilty or misunderstood.

Inference tends to be objectively evidence based, judging is more opinion based on the evidence. Imo but could be wrong.

You gota add that #no offence #no judgement and BOOM, it's inference 😎
To infer means you've been given information. To judge is to assume.
