Today on Behavior Gap Radio is all about the importance of error correction mechanisms in our lives. Carl challenges the notion of avoiding being wrong and embracing the practice of actively seeking disconfirming evidence. Drawing from personal experiences, he reflects on how confirmation bias often leads us to defend our theories about the future, hindering our ability to adapt and learn. Instead, he advocates for celebrating errors as opportunities for growth and truth-seeking, suggesting that establishing conditions for being "less wrong" tomorrow is more valuable than striving for precise correctness today.
