ALGORITHMS TO LIVE BY: THE COMPUTER SCIENCE OF HUMAN DECISIONS – BRIAN CHIRSITAN – [AudioBook]
A fascinating exploration of how insights from
computer algorithms can be applied to our everyday lives, helping to solve
common decision-making problems and illuminate the workings of the human mind
All our lives are constrained by limited space and
time, limits that give rise to a particular set of problems. What should we do,
or leave undone, in a day or a lifetime? How much messiness should we accept?
What balance of new activities and familiar favorites is the most fulfilling?
These may seem like uniquely human quandaries, but they are not: computers,
too, face the same constraints, so computer scientists have been grappling with
their version of such issues for decades. And the solutions they've found have
much to teach us.
In a
dazzlingly interdisciplinary work, acclaimed author Brian Christian and
cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths show how the algorithms used by computers can
also untangle very human questions. They explain how to have better hunches and
when to leave things to chance, how to deal with overwhelming choices and how
best to connect with others. From finding a spouse to finding a parking spot,
from organizing one's inbox to understanding the workings of memory, Algorithms
to Live By transforms the wisdom of computer science into strategies
for human living.
