Abstract: This paper focuses on two very important questions: “what is the future of a hybrid mathematical structure of soft set in science and social science?” and “why should we take care to use hybrid structures of soft set?”. At present, these are the most fundamental questions; which encircle a few prominent areas of mathematics of uncertainties viz. fuzzy set theory, rough set theory, vague set theory, hesitant fuzzy set theory, IVFS theory, IT2FS theory, etc. In this paper, we review connections of soft set theory and hybrid structures in a non-technical manner; so that it may be helpful for a non-mathematician to think carefully to apply hybrid structures in his research areas. Moreover, we must express that we do not have any intention to nullify contributions of fuzzy set theory or rough set theory, etc. to mankind; but our main intention is to show that we must be careful to develop any new hybrid structure with soft set. Here, we have a short discussion on needs of artificial psychology and artificial philosophy to enrich artificial intelligence.
