Hi! I’m new here and I’d like to thank for the site and for this instructive article in particular. I’m quite convinced that the overconfidence in our own intuition, even without knowing its underlying mechanisms, is one of the main obstacles to rational thinking. Maybe this blackbox working of our intuition also plays a role in communication of our ideas to others. How we can change someone’s opinions if we don’t know how they got them in first place?
