Without an awareness of their own cognitive biases, people continue to get what theyve been getting their whole lives. They make the same mistakes, they lie to themselves, they come up with excuses, they edit their personal narratives to be more attractive or smarter than they actually are. And they continue to act mechanically, at the direction of forces they do not even know exist. And humanity as a whole suffers. We repeat the same mistakes. We stumble into disaster. We dont see it coming. And then we look back and wonder how we got into the mess in the first place. Its not that difficult, and well have no one to blame but ourselves when it happens again. And it is happening. Now.
