A "cognitive bias" is a systematic error in thinking that ruins decision-making.

The 12 most powerful cognitive biases I've found:

[Aid Galijatovic @saccades]

@AlexOsterwalder Thinking small and waiting around for others to act.

[Aid Galijatovic @saccades]

@joshelman @isadwatson @withyoursquad Getting involved with crypto now is a regret minimization strategy (and an awesome opportunity to learn by helping develop useful foundational infrastructure)

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Science doesn't really care about your beliefs.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

• Read everyday.
• Spend time with nature.
• Ask questions.
• Never stop learning.
• Don't pay attention to what others think of you.
• Do what interests you the most.
• Study hard.
• Teach others what you know.
• Make mistakes and learn.
• It's Okay to not know things!

[Farbod Saraf @farbodsaraf]

It's hard to teach:

1 sense of urgency
2 critical thinking
3 creativity
4 customer empathy
5 team commitment
6 humility
7 unselfish giving
8 judgement
9 grace and dignity
10 positivity
11 optimism
12 bias towards results
13 active listening

Strong leaders teach the hard stuff.

@chrismessina Amazing progress. Wondering how quickly they will offer tools for training Duplex to handle custom topics, especially since it requires quite a bit of data to work right.

[Using an Inception v3 algorithm] the CNN achieves performance on par with all tested experts across both tasks, demonstrating an artificial intelligence capable of classifying skin cancer with a level of competence comparable to dermatologists. https://t.co/Q5Koz8nBMr

It took AutoML about 24 hours to finish training the data, and the model was able to predict which shop the ramen came from with a 95 percent accuracy. https://t.co/3MQJFkI5oy

Interpreting algorithm outputs to executives: "Trainers bring a human element to AI systems, but explainers will bridge the gap between the new systems and their human managers." https://t.co/PMO9kRkEpy

We're moving from the information age to the reputation age. The value of your knowledge hinges more and more on how much people trust you as a source of knowledge.

@muneeb @naval Sure — basic literacy bar has already moved and now includes things other than reading and writing. Going forward, life will be painful for those that just want to do what they already know.
