if this isn’t subtweeting my last, it’s a startling coincidence… this table is apparently drawn from Kahneman’s book (which I haven’t read), but could be straight out of the psychology column of _Cosmopolitan_ magazine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_process_theory#Systems …pic.twitter.com/GyyEYJ9nK2

you’d think he could come up with something better than intuition vs rationality which is not exactly a new distinction but I suppose the consumers of psychology best-sellers want to hear that men are from mars and women are from venus

I think 2 system is a pretty good first split category for mental activity. Yes, everything other than conscious is a big diverse bag, but the conscious bit is very salient. Psych got in big trouble by trying to invent novel nonintuitive facts; I support saying the obvious.

For me (who was over rational) two system was valuable as a way to think about mind. Just don't get hung up on that particular dichotomy when it stops being useful.

Now I think of two systems in the context of the "user illusion". http://humancond.org/analysis/mind/user_interface_analogy … That is, we have evolved consciousness as a smooth interface for presenting the results of the bundle of hacks which is mind.
