How Biases Change The Way We View The World

from Minds Unleashed · host Minds Unleashed

🔍 In This Episode We explore how cognitive biases like the conjunction fallacy shape our perceptions, using the famous "Linda problem" as a prime example. Discover how the representativeness heuristic leads us to overlook basic probability rules and why overfitting can result in dangerous misjudgments. Learn how confirmation bias and Ockham's razor impact our decision-making and the importance of data analysis in avoiding these mental traps. Join us as we delve into Richard Feynman's scientific approach to minimizing biases and ensuring more accurate conclusions. 🕰️ Video Chapters 00:00 - Intro 00:19 - Conjunction Fallacy 00:40 - The Linda Problem 04:01 - Have Assumptions Risen More In The Modern Day 09:30 - The Problem Of Labelling 10:50 - The Origins of Label Bias 13:10 - Overfitting 14:01 - Overfitting In Mental Health 17:25 - The Problems Of Misinformation 20:00 - The Problems With Overfitting 23:20 - How To Prevent Overfitting From Occurring 25:20 - Richard Feynman Prevented Fallacies From Occurring 👍 Support us here: https://www.youtube.com/@Minds.Unleashed 📰 Sign up to our weekly newsletter for more content: https://mindsunleashed.substack.com/ Follow us below 👇 Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/minds.unleash/⁠ TikTok: ⁠tiktok.com/@minds_unleashed⁠ 🎵 Listen on the go: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2fW7Rk3URDmHV2dA315Db7 About us: Minds Unleashed is a podcast platform where we learn and gain insights from many different types of individuals.
