[Applause] The latest data collected by the World CIA Fact Book says that 22.7% of Gernzi's population weren't born in either Gernzi, the UK, or Ireland. 22.7%. That's around 13,000 people.Our brains struggle to comprehend, understand, and visualize numbers larger than the amount that we can count on our fingers. So, to help you visualize what 13,000 people might look like, I asked AI to generate a picture for me. And this is what it came up with.I'd like you to keep that in mind throughout this speech. In ...

President Trump directed the most complex and secretive military operation in history, and it was a resounding success, resulting in a cease fire agreement and the end of the 12 day war. Every outlet has breathlessly reported on a preliminary assessment from DIA. I'm looking at it right now.Again, it was preliminary a day and a half after the actual strike, when it admits itself in writing that it requires weeks to accumulate the necessary data to make such an assessment as preliminary. It points out that i ...

[Music] [Applause] Can I invite you to look up for a moment and imagine that above us hangs a mirror. A smart, intelligent mirror. one that reflects all our faces, our smiles, our different hair.It also captures our opinions and perspective. Such a smart and intelligent mirror would only be limited by one thing, the people in the room. If someone was on their way, stood just outside the door, maybe they didn't even see the invite, their reflection, their voice would not be reflected in this mirror.This mirr ...

你以为看到的是世界全貌,实则常被偏见、假设蒙蔽。想要做出更好决策,关键在于挑战内心预期。本文提出 BIAS 框架,从行为、信息、分析和环境结 构四个角度,帮你揪出隐藏的思维误区,摆脱错误预设,打破偏见束缚,让决策回归理性,避免预期带来的不良后果。 预期并非消极被动的存在。它自有一股推动力,因为它驱使我们基于或真或假的假设采取行动。若不审视预期,我们便无从知晓自己正催生何种推动力。 我们是在敞开心扉,寻求与他人的交流和联系,还是在关闭通往包容与全面解决问题的路径与机会呢? 预期能够影响,甚至左右我们的决策过程。因为即便我们展望未来,思维也会受过往行为及对过往结果的认知所塑造。我们常常意识不到自己已设定了预 期,因为我们在未将隐含假设明朗化的情况下,就仓促进入了决策流程。 BIAS框架 那么,我们该如何理解并考量自身的预期呢?我构建了一个框架,它要求你从四个视角审视自己的决策:自身行为(behavior)、所涉信息 (information)、分析方式(analysis),以及决策时所处的结构或环境(structure)。取每个视角英文单词的首字母,我将其命名为BIAS框架。其目的 在于采用一种结构化的方法,让思 ...

[Music] I was working as a TV executive and I loved my job and my team and then I got a new boss and he sucked. Anyone ever have a bad boss? [Music] You're my people. This guy became the bane of my existence. I was in a constant power struggle with him and in the process I was losing sleep and I was losing my mind and I was losing my way. My team felt it. My work reflected it. It was not good. Not good. But like a glutton for punishment, I stayed in this situation for two years. Finally, when I decided to l ...

So my family and I during the recent break went walking in the real mountains and my son who is seven asked me a string of constant questions. Mom, what's the name of this flower. Mom, can I eat this berry. Mom, what's this bird doing.And my typical reply was, I have no idea, Arthur. And he would say, but mom, you're a scientist. you should know the answer.And it made me think about what my plan was to speak to you all about today. So scientific knowledge, while revered, is not impervious to bias or lack of ...
