I suspect values are socially stabilized. You are honest or dishonest based on norms around you. Biases act in privacy mostly and it takes a self-aware counterparty to call out transgressions, as opposed to a general rule-enforcing busybody. Biases can turn into values I think

Values can be insincere (hypocrisy) in a way biases cannot. Their conscious nature creates the possibility of a gap between say/do. Hmm. Perhaps values are even best considered counterprogrammings of biases. At least deeply considered ones.

Maybe you hold an explicit value like honesty only if you notice a pattern of dishonesty leading to bad outcomes, or is pointed out to you. But pristine dishonesty in kids is unconscious probably. Criminal adult dishonesty requires first internalizing and then rejecting honesty

A commonality: I dislike both constructs equally. I’m biased against people who unironically think in terms of trad values, and value people who don’t turn lesswrongness into the signal virtue of a martyr religion of humorless cognitive stoicism. Greed is good. Biases are good.
