My belief is that intuition and emotion are just complex sets of logic that we haven’t understood yet.

Put in the time and focus, and one day it will just click.

I think the emotions and really the whole operation of the mental states is reasonable, but not internally logical. They arise in predictable patterns from experiences and so on, but they can very easily override logic.

they will be understood someday, but only by highly advanced mathematical models developed through machine learning.

models which humans will not actually be capable of understanding.

It's biological (aka biological determination). There's the famous study of how judges handed out verdicts based on what or when they ate:
