Episode Notes

⚖️ "A wrongful conviction. A misdiagnosed illness. A newsfeed that tells you only what you "want" to hear."

We like to think we’re rational thinkers—but what if "bias" wasn’t just shaping our own decisions, but the decisions made about us?

In this ""15-minute Talking Point Shorts episode"", we uncover how ""confirmation bias"" quietly influences the choices we make—and the judgments others make about us.

As Nobel Prize-winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman warns, even scientists who commit to a theory tend to disregard conflicting facts, concluding that the ""facts must be wrong, not the theory"". If the most rational thinkers do this, what about the rest of us?

From "social media to justice and medicine," are the unseen dangers of bias shaping our lives more than we realise?

🎧 ""Hit play and challenge your own thinking.""
