More quotes by Daniel Kahneman
There are some conditions where you have to trust your intuition.
Daniel Kahneman
By their very nature, heuristic shortcuts will produce biases, and that is true for both humans and artificial intelligence, but the heuristics of AI are not necessarily the human ones.
Daniel Kahneman
We are very influenced by completely automatic things that we have no control over, and we don't know we're doing it.
Daniel Kahneman
It's very easy for trusted companies to mislead naive customers, and life insurance companies are trusted.
Daniel Kahneman
Experts don't know exactly where the boundaries of their expertise are.
Daniel Kahneman
Acquisition of skills requires a regular environment, an adequate opportunity to practice, and rapid and unequivocal feedback about the correctness of thoughts and actions.
Daniel Kahneman
Doubting what you see is a very odd experience. And doubting what you remember is a little less odd than doubting what you see. But it's also a pretty odd experience, because some memories come with a very compelling sense of truth about them, and that happens to be the case even for memories that are not true.
Daniel Kahneman
The illusion that we understand the past fosters overconfidence in our ability to predict the future.
Daniel Kahneman
We can't live in a state of perpetual doubt, so we make up the best story possible and we live as if the story were true.
Daniel Kahneman

Daniel Kahneman
Most things that couples disagree upon aren't worth more than a day's combat.
Daniel Kahneman
I used to hold a unitary view, in which I proposed that only experienced happiness matters, and that life satisfaction is a fallible estimate of true happiness.
Daniel Kahneman
All of us roughly know what memory is. I mean, memory is sort of the storage of the past. It's the storage of our personal experiences. It's a very big deal.
Daniel Kahneman
The premise of this book is that it is easier to recognize other people's mistakes than your own.
Daniel Kahneman
What happens with fear is that probability doesn't matter very much. That is, once I have raised the possibility that something terrible can happen to your child, even though the possibility is remote, you may find it very difficult to think of anything else. Emotion becomes dominant.
Daniel Kahneman
Negotiations over a shrinking pie are especially difficult because they require an allocation of losses. People tend to be much more easygoing when they bargain over an expanding pie.
Daniel Kahneman
I'm not a great believer in self-help.
Daniel Kahneman
Slow thinking has the feeling of something you do. It's deliberate.
Daniel Kahneman
Alternative descriptions of the same reality evoke different emotions and different associations.
Daniel Kahneman
One thing we have lost, that we had in the past, is a sense of progress, that things are getting better. There is a sense of volatility, but not of progress.
Daniel Kahneman
