intuition about the "section after base-change" for flat descent and exactness of the Amitsur complex

Suppose $A \rightarrow B$ is a faithfully flat map of rings. Then the Amitsur complex is exact: $0 \rightarrow A \rightarrow B \rightarrow B \otimes_A B \rightarrow \dots$ (the second map is $id \...
