Hi efim!
I updated the description in the link on meetup.com that Imma gave. To give you some extra detail, we'll talk about: Which biases are hard/easy to correct? When does knowing about the existence of a bias help and when not? Which debiasing techniques are there (reversal test, consider the opposite, reference class forecasting...) and what are generally useful guidelines to stay rational? We'll run an experiment on confidence intervals and do a mini-RCT with a debiasing technique that hasn't been scientifically validated yet. I'll also share some links that I believe are useful to correct our decision-making errors.
Hope to see you there and sorry for the late reply!
