“My colleagues, they study artificial intelligence. Me? I study natural stupidity.”
I found above in my Barnes & Noble browsing today. The speaker was Amos Tversky, a Stanford psychologist, now deceased, and a founding father of behavioral economics. The quote is in the new book The Darwin Economy by Robert H. Frank.
I have no comment to wrap around this quote now. I post it because it’s too good not to share.
