There are also two kinds of people - those who are objective enough to tell when it happens and those who will never even see when they’re outperformed because of their cognitive biases.

I give you a 2x2x2 matrix.

I'm sure if we work hard enough we can add a meta-meta-cognition level. Cognition is just 2^n series of binary states right?

Sure, but if a person can find an easier way to do their job, they’ll usually do it. Usually the bias is towards less energy expenditure.

That'd be a tensor, no?

A rank-3 tensor, yes. Matrices are rank-2 tensors.

God I hated tensors in grad school. Give me a Taylor series any day.

Everything that seems complicated is just a "fancy matrix".
