Why “Intuition” and “Gut-feel” Are Hurting How We Learn, and What You Can Do About It. Have you ever confidently made a decision, like hiring someone, picking a restaurant, or backing an idea, and later realised you couldn’t…

What actually 'is' intuition?

Nothing quite gets you in the mood to work like listening to @raydalioofficial.bsky.social on the @profgalloway.com podcast.
“We’re about to hit an iceberg and most people are arguing whether we turn left or right…”

Hi Jérémie, I have a view on this but it’s only early ideas. Intuition is actually a ‘dominant’ mental system which given task and context, is either aligned to the situation or not (bias). It helps explain Kahneman and Klein’s views under a single framework. See here osf.io/preprints/so...

On a positive note, very little change between resting and full noise 💪

After researching this area for years, reading everything I could and trying to better understand decision making, I decided to write something about it. Thanks to all those who motivated me with their own work.

Engineering has ideas tested against physical outcomes. In psychology and leadership, ideas are often tested against attention. This creates an incentive to rename or reframe concepts to for attention. A grift. This helps individuals stand out but undermines progress.

If America survives this next 4 years without a severe financial recession, either we have to give it to Trump and his team, or I’m absolutely shocked at how America has ever been in a recession… will be great to watch either way!

I applaud the GRDC for looking into the world of decision making- but feel like this is a missed opportunity. This does nothing to help growers make better decisions, except add more confusion.

Because AI tools are trained on human behaviour, not human values, it means that it learns from the human ‘System 1’ brain or through our ‘wants’. This makes it bad for helping you decide in certain aspects.

Use AI as a ‘thinking partner’ but not a ‘decision maker’

I know how much of a fan you are of good and bad graphs @wheatwatcher.bsky.social and @meatwatcher.bsky.social

Can a graph have 3 vertical axis?

This extraordinary image was reproduced in the school history books of my childhood and I remember how powerful I found it then. The context has changed but the message is just as powerful today

Labour productivity in Australia kept up with the USA pretty much until the last term of the Howard government. Since then it has been a struggle to catch up. Hopefully a focus on productivity by Treasurer Jim Chalmers will see us make up some of the gap. #agsky #econsky

Really interesting. Would you say that this is a function of the Big 7 in tech who have produced huge amounts of digital innovation/output by software engineers? Ratios would be massive!

Only thing would be if they are using a tall line and cotton is less than 50cm high. Might be able to scoot over the top of the plants if irrigated.

I stopped running this year thanks to Christmas lunches but for about the last 10 years I have sat at 5:10 kms whether it’s a 3k run or 10k. I have stopped trying to get faster 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think that is why we see differences in federal swings versus state swings in election. Like in QLD and WA where they have a Labor state Gov but vote in LNP Federal seats.
