  • We use cognitive shortcuts, known as algorithms and heuristics, to help us make decisions
    • An algorithm is a rule which, if applied appropriately, guarantees a solution to a problem.
    • A heuristic is a cognitive shortcut that enhances the likelihood of success.
        Under certain circumstances, heuristics may mislead us and they can lead us to inaccurate conclusions.
