Smart people are good at describing things that many of us know but can't describe.
@maboyd
It is so refreshing to hear a public intellectual say, "I don't know." I can't imagine other Nobel Laureates in Economics (think Stiglitz, Krugman, Merton Miller) demonstrating such humility.
@giganticbrittle
Thank you for everything DK! The conclusion of "Noise" is especially thought provoking. RIP dear man 😢

"Confidence is not a good diagnostic for when you can trust either yourself or somebody else". Well said Sir. Hats off to you!

"It's not a case of: 'Read this book and then you'll think differently. I've written this book, and I don't think differently." - Daniel Kahneman My favorite quote of his that encapsulates perfectly what he is saying.
@GianetanSekhon
The best way to understand Daniel Kahenman is to listen to him on a long drive on The Ted Interview podcast. Chris Anderson has a smart way of extracting the best out of the best minds on this planet.
@JaafarAboud-j8o
I think that people like Professor Kahneman should be more famous; also, his theories should be published and known more. If we don't acknowledge these people for their efforts, we will lose them in the future. At least we have to thank them for everything they do to develop the humanities.
@andypotanin
this book had a large influence over how i’ve thought about decisions since i read it almost 10 years ago. great to see the author! thanks, google
@bibekdhkl
For those who don't know what he is talking about; Go and have a copy of "Thinking Fast and slow" then you will understand everything about his talk. For me it's basically like recalling the important topics of the book. P.S. It took me around 6 months to complete in the book coz in the last page cover of the book there is written "Buy it fast Read it slowly It will change the way you think"
@quantummath
This man changed my view of human mind forever in 2010. Big thanks for that!
@jaytsecan
Just wanted to mention this - amazing (high quality) questions were asked by the audience. Thank you Google audience.
@weirdbuckle
System 0: (over)confidently repeat prepared answers no matter how relevant the question is... Wonderful talk. I am buying the book.
@Siscon92
I'm halfway reading (listening to, audible FTW) his book, and I gotta say it's been eye opening. Although not easy to digest and the constant bias that "no I'm different", I think it's good to have this in mind whenever one has to make an impactful decision, and first activate system 2 and second be aware of the biases and influences may cloud your thoughts. Definitely a must read for those that want to know more about decision making.
@MariposaRedimida
I love the piece about system 1 answering an easier question than what was asked. I have noticed that a lot with people when I ask questions and so many people answer something related without actually addressing my questions. I usually get annoyed and ask again. I guess I should not take this personal and understand this is not deliberate but automatic. Another thing I really liked was learning the relationship between chaotic environments and probability. So if people don't have enough order to be able to predict information, I don't need to trust their intuitions. I really don't like it when people are so confident in their knowing and I can tell they have no basis for it. I really need to read the whole book.

From 4 yrs ago; the Test for System 2 is quite evident Today, Self control as an important intelligent characteristic Test, predictions at 4yrs old how one will respond/ react and do 20 yrs down the road. Very fascinating study, thank you Daniel Kahneman.
@jsomervi
I loved his response to the question about advertising particularly his mentioning that a lot of politics has the same effect as advertising.
@premalt9372
Thank you Talks at Google for putting these videos up, its awesome to be able to watch them ....
@drlesliebethwish48
Excellent interview for such important information. I use Daniel Kahneman's discoveries in helping my clients and giving presentations and interviews. If you think intuition is not real or that your decisions are all wise, I strongly recommend that you listen to this interview.
@jimlovingu2
My degrees are in psychology, however, I also study hypnotherapy, neural linguistics (NLP),etc. If one desires to broaden and deepen an understanding of this topic, I suggest that you resist the urges from system 1 and explore these disciplines (hypnosis, NLP, etc.) with an open mind.. I have been practicing as a medical and clinical hypnotherapist for more than 30 years with great and predictable results. I really enjoyed this lecture.
