Cognitive biases in software engineering (also did a talk about this once) - worth a read for software engineers.

In 2018 I was chosen to do an internal corporate “Ted talk” about cognitive biases and ML biases and how they can inform each other to help reduce bias, misunderstanding, and errors.
I talked a bit about AlphaGo Game 2 Move 37 and the reaction of all the “experts” to it being a mistake, an AI screwup, and going against 2000 years of Go wisdom.
As many people now know, AlphaGo made a brilliant move beyond human understanding.
This is one of many reasons why I don’t underestimate the power of ML/AI research, implementation, and potential.
Had to filter a couple 4-letter words on X - liar and luke
I think OP_RETURN drama was manufactured to get people to delete X, nostr only.
Mental and emotional filters also don’t work too well, sometimes …
Even a basic ML/AI can determine:
Bitcoin
(K)not Bitcoin
This always hits.
Be curious, not judgmental (stuck in lazy bias buckets)
I made a little MCP server tool where you input a situation in your life and it spits out different Stoic advice/quotes for internally-based wisdom and action and externally-based wisdom and action…
“Whoever does wrong, wrongs himself; whoever does injustice, does it to himself, making himself evil.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“Supermarkets have begun rationing Dubai chocolate, and people have been caught smuggling the prized bars. In short, the Dubai chocolate craze has shaken the global chocolate industry.”- BBC
