Authors in August: Thi Nguyen’s “The Score”

from Rule Breaker Investing · host The Motley Fool

Authors in August is back! It’s our 9th year featuring authors of books that David loves and thinks you’ll love too. So for the third time, philosopher and game scholar Thi Nguyen joins back with Rule Breaker Investing—and this time the conversation reaches far beyond games. What happens when the scores we invent to measure success begin quietly reshaping what we value? Together, in an incredibly wide-ranging discussion, David and Thi explore rankings, metrics, investing, institutions, artificial intelligence, and the subtle difference between playing a game… and letting the game play you. And we close with a rousing round, as ever, of Buy, Sell, or Hold? Whose scorecard are you living by? Host: David GardnerGuest: Thi NguyenProducer: Bart Shannon Learn more about your ad choices.
