We explore how cognitive biases like the conjunction fallacy shape our perceptions, using the famous "Linda problem" as a prime example. Discover how the representativeness heuristic leads us to overlook basic probability rules and why overfitting can result in dangerous misjudgments. Learn how confirmation bias and Ockham's razor impact our decision-making and the importance of data analysis in avoiding these mental traps. Join us as we delve into Richard Feynman's scientific approach to minimizing biases and ensuring more accurate conclusions.
