Smart individual that go on autopilot can have bias towards information. Such why story about police having bias towards the investigation seems common. It’s cause thinks know everything with out looking over the details. Thinking know everything common treat see most smart try to Avoid.
As we get older I think we also filter out what experience has tought us is not important and we sometimes over filter and miss details we wouldnt have missed when we were young and curious about everything.
Intelligence isn't knowledge, information, or being able to recite a textbook. Intelligence is the ability to be unintelligent, recognize it, then alter course to a better understanding.
lol the noah and moses example is perhaps the worst example possible because it is based on a biblical story and intelligent people are less likely to be religious, especially in the 21st century, because the more intelligent you are, the more likely you are to believe things only when it is congruent with evidence and logic. should have used a scientific fact for that example
Qualified smart people are highly theorical to specific subject and so self centered because they tend to be alone. They don't develop their coordination of mind-body-socialisation.
In the very beginning, dude said "but they don't apply that brainpower effectively". Yet in the schoolyard gotcha that he did with Moses and Noah it's actually that people are applying their brainpower too effectively. They are letting their subconscious handle the trivial question, where it just assumed that pairs of animals and ark meant the flood myth from Noah without bothering to listen to the words it didn't need to understand the question it thought was being asked. It's exactly this ability that lets us glide through trivial tasks so easily that is being exploited here. It's the overly efficient brain that usually misses details.
Many of the things covered here have a lot to do with things other than intelligence, at least classic book intelligence. There are many different kinds of intelligence. Book, emotional, common sense, crowd, and many others are different types of intelligence. Often our over admiration of letters at the end of names gives us a false idea of intelligence. In my field I've dealt with many people with many advanced degrees who know a lot about one specific thing, but don't know how to write an email, tie their shoes, or understand the Pythagorean theorem. It's not about what you can recall through rote but what you can accomplish when you apply your knowledge that signals intelligence in my mind. I might be able to crush standardized tests, and I almost exclusively scored in the 99th percentile, but ask just about anyone who knows me and they'd say, yeah Kev knows trivia but he's a dumbass. Because I make stupid choices due to the human condition. We are predisposed to all sorts of logical fallacies, we generally suck at understanding probability, and we use emotion and intuition where they should definitely not be relied upon over data and common sense.
Am I the only one who makes a stupid mistake through how I clumsly write a different answer rather than the one what I actually meant to answer on the exam. It's so annnnoyingggg, it GETS me so frustrated.
Nope, you're wrong. Someone above average in intelligence would make such mistakes, but someone even beyond that would not make such mistakes as often. For example, a genius wouldn't think one sidedly, but try to look at every possible perspective possible. This is because they've already experienced being wrong, even though they thought they were correct based on their calculations. They've experienced this enough for them to realise there is always something that they may not have thought of. So they make it a habit to never come to a conclusion without properly researching every bit and perspective. What you really mean is that people with above intelligence tend to make these mistakes. Truly intelligent people usually don't make these mistakes. So those that make such mistakes shouldn't be considered intelligent. Well, if it's relative to the average intelligence in the world, I guess you could say they are intelligent. So maybe you're correct. It just depends on what "intelligent" is relative to. But the those with top tier intelligence even among the intelligent usually don't make these mistakes.
I don't know exactly but there is an example of Einstein which I am writing it below. Don't know whether this incedent it is true or not. Einstein had a cat and she gave a birth to kitten. To go outside Einstein made two holes in a door a big one for a cat and small for a kitten though kitten could go through a big one. We can conclude that mistakes are omni present!

I needed this.
I am definitely a cognitive miser! I am studying for the law school admissions test and I need to break this habit. Any tips?
I make really stupid mistakes. Does that make me Smart?😂
Only if you don't make them twice. :D
at least you try stuff
I don't find myself that smart, but this video answered some questions I had in mind about the intelligent people I admire.
Smart people are not always honest...
And that's smartness too.
well when i do mistakes i start getting anxiety then think about suicidal thoughts and is very uncomfortable
Mistakes make us human. Just learn from your mistakes.
Me too..
Damn really relatable
I'm definitely in your boat. I am scared but I wouldn't be here if I wasn't trying to fix myself

I use to use this as a joke "your post dropped my IQ points by 50"...but apparently this is actually true now.
Please reconsider this assertion. My guess is the IQ drop is usually no more than 15 :)
I think what makes you "smart is not your nollge of science or things like that. But experience is what makes you smart.

Bruh i like this ... Did u read it somewhere or is it your own opinion??
It takes a conscious choice to open up to crucial feedback, and another conscious choice to believe you are too smart for feedback.

Stupid people make intelligent mistakes. Next video soon on this.
How do you label those emotions?
Nice way to cover up the stupidity we encompass
Yea why people do a stupid things
I'm trying to understand if this is a serious comment or not.
Because god made us this way
i can’t stand my stupid mistakes ah it hurts my head so much when i remember

I try to argue with myself it makes things worse I will thing about it for weeks or months.
lots going on in that noodle. free will may be debatable. too many neurons misfiring ?

Perhaps YOU are wrong.
well i know it was noah not moses i should do too .
Great
sept deviation?
Are y’all trying to convince us that the people who watch CNN, are actually smart? 😂 riiiight
What? I missed that part. lol
If we were all smart. We wouldn't watch the news period.
