Critical Thinking in the Age of Social Media & Artificial Intelligence (Paradise)

There are no scheduled sessions at this time. Sign up to be notified when this course is available.

We prefer stories to statistics. We seek to confirm, not to question our ideas. We don't understand the role of chance and probability in shaping events. We cannot comprehend very large numbers. We use heuristics (mental short cuts) and misperceive our world. We are deliberately deceived when things are presented to us using framing and anchoring. We have faulty memories. Social media has algorithms that intensify these errors. Artificial intelligence (AI) may weaken our inclination and ability to engage critical thinking. Can we apply critical thinking to some societal problems today?
