Why We’re So Sure… and So Wrong
We dive into the most dangerous cognitive bias—overconfidence—by unpacking the real Dunning-Kruger curve, the mental shortcuts that trick us into thinking we’ve got it all figured out, and even why a little swagger can be good for you. Along the way, Professors Moore and Fischhoff drop expert insights on why you might bet the farm on half-baked knowledge.
Using jaw-dropping case studies—like Nick Leeson’s rogue trading blowup and the collapse of one of England’s oldest banks—the video shows how missing feedback loops turn small mistakes into massive failures. Stick around for practical hacks (and a new tabletop game) designed to curb your hubris before it leads you off a cliff.
