A little bit of k is now really doing, doing, like work on the self enhancement. And so what dunning and kruger is saying is, it's the ignorance.

The less we know, the more we know it. David and Tamler talk about the notorious Dunning-Kruger effect, which makes us overconfident in beliefs on topics we're ignorant about and under-confident when we're experts.
