What's the Difference Between Lower Level and Higher Level Cognition?
When i joined the obama house, that was kind of my north star. And so when i started researching cognitive science, and studying what they would call lower level cognition. But then there also this higher level reasoning, right? Which is how we make decisions and how we operate in the world. It's really interesting just to say that we had asunstein's coathor richard thaylor on the show a couple of months ago to talk about their book, nudge. He uses this term choice architecture, and how scientists can create an architecture of choices knowing what they know about the human mind.
