    All of that is correct. Still, if you mix this KNOWLEDGE with a few drops of HUMILITY, and WILLINGNESS to change your mind, it will probably HELP. And yes, you, me, and everyone else, will STILL be a victim of our own biases, but knowing about them can help us acknowledge it when people point them out to us, and it can help us to see it in ourselves more than we would have, if we didn't know about these tendencies. When we are IN THE MOMENT, we're likely to still mess up, but if we habitually do some introspection, and question ourselves, then we're at least setting the stage as best we can in the effort to combat our biases.
    What wasn't mentioned in the video, but is VERY important in this regard, is to understand COGNITIVE DISSONANCE. It plays a HUGE part in our lives.

    Just responding best I can taming my biases’. With caffeine I thought I read California label coffee ‘possibly carcinogen’ due to spraying of specifically glyphosate on the crops.
    I love the brain driving the car, and with the poorly parked car I feel speaks more about realistic variables, which IMO peer reviewed does not necessarily capture with a backstop of error margin ~ 3-4%. Absolution does not appear to be a strength for science especially in policy.
    Its better to allow you mind to rest rather than judging everything, always look both ways when driving and remember driving requires always safety first☃️

    Dang, I think I know those biases before seeing the video to be not biased. I rated the coffee one as wrong because I have seen it somewhere that it doesn't, I drink coffee though so that could be a bias too. This is probably because of the bias too, bias to be unique and some excuses.

    Ok so on number three the cars next the red one were put well and not in a way that the red one couldn’t park. On top of that the red cars driver could’ve still Parked well at least to some degree so that example is pretty dumb

    Yes, I really need someone to tell me that ‘common sense’ is a false sense of security and human should not act on their instincts to avoid danger. When we face a dangerous situation like COVID 19, remember to think of all scenarios and don’t make any decisions before you can think of the pros and cons.
