Are we in control of our decisions? | Dan Ariely
Ғылым және технология

This is one of the easiest Ted talks to follow while still getting a ton of information thrown at you. I really enjoyed this speaker!

@@sunway1374 if you look at the guy's history, the questionable methods that were revealed started pretty early in his "career"
"writing academic papers is not that exciting" - one way to make it more interesting, just make up a bullshit hypothesis, then create the data out of thin air and wait to see how long it takes for someone to catch you - about 14 years of hide and seek seems a good return on investment.
I wonder if TED will take this down now given the doubts around his research being valid.

I heard Dan speak at a User Experience/Interaction conference run by Epic Games. The best line I took away from his talk was "Never underestimate people's desire to do nothing." He's has an amazing mind and is a joy to listen to.

"The Upside of Irrationality" totally changed my view on a whole lot of things. I really recommend it.
I love this talk so much, I share it every couple of months on my facebook page in the hopes everyone will watch it.
@ Dan Ariely you are a brilliant and caring person. I love your discussions.
I saw this a couple of months ago. Still brilliant.. watched it to the end again.

Yikes. From wikipedia - he was active in Hanoar Haoved Vehalomed, an Israeli youth movement. While he was preparing a ktovet esh (fire inscription) for a traditional nighttime ceremony, the flammable materials he was mixing exploded, causing third-degree burns over 70 percent of his body.[12] In his writings, Ariely describes how that experience led to his research on "how to better deliver painful and unavoidable treatments to patients."

The most brilliant talk i ever found in ted.Thank you very much.
Absolutely amazing. I wish they were all this good.
What a brilliant presentation! I'm now tempted to read his "predictively irrational".
Eye-opening speech with a good sense of humour :)
Fabulous talk!!! Love Dan Ariely!!
This is by far the best TED video i've ever watched 17 minutes went pass like a wind
The subscription example was on point. Imma start using it
perfect delivery......fantastic speaker
A superbly insightful talk, one of the best ever
Brilliant material and brilliant delivery from a brilliant individual.
thank you ted for sharing so many great speakers and talks
I teach drawing - definitely gonna include the illusion of the 2 tables in my drawing lessons. Thanks!
Watched this in a PlayPosit assignment for school and had to come here to give it a like. Great vid and raises an interesting point about our self-perceptions.
This is one of the best TED videos I have seen.
One of my favorite ted talks. Really fascinating implications on form design.
Great speech! I love TED, and the things it brings to everyone.
im from the netherlands, and i remember there was quite some national discussion about making the organ donation form opt in or opt out. if memory serves well (memory from 7 years ago when i turned 18), if you did NOT send in the form AT ALL, there was an automatic opt-in. you actually had to submit the form with a choice.
this guy has such good delivery with his jokes... very interesting; always been interested in this topic
Some scenario are very similar from the book thinking fast and slow by Daniel kahneman. Great talk enjoy it very much!!!
extraordinary talk, we are not so capable after all, learning implies humble to understand our limitations
I really like watching this guy. I always learn something useful about myself.

No. By giving this guy a platform, you legitimize his lies. Let the justice system and the academic community expose him and then people can comment on the results. TED on the other hand, has an obligation to educate the public, not provide a stage for opportunistic scumbags to spread their lies to the gullible public. Despite the overwhelming evidence that this guy is guilty of manufacturing data to support his ideas, there will always be a segment of the people who view this video and who will continue to believe his nonsense and even assert that he is being wrongfully accused and a victim of a conspiracy, which is his laughable contention. Remove the video and you minimize the chance that this happens.
wow! he is so good. He threw information that you couldn't even raise a question either have millions questions in your head.
D. Ariely makes such a good point about human nature.
One of the most interesting TED talks yet.

I vaguely recall Sam Harris mentioning on one of his podcasts that he asked a famous researcher on the science of decision-making how that researcher's own research has influenced his own decision making, and the researcher said something along the lines of "Oh, it hasn't", because his research shows that the smarter one is, the better one is at coming up with reasonable justifications for their own decisions.

awesome presentation and subject matter!
Dan is absolutely gorgeous. Think I have a crush ^_^ It's so refreshing to find an academic who speaks with his audience, even though he's the only one speaking.
I was just going to write that the rubik´s cube example was fake, but decided first to watch it in the slowest speed possible. It´s been 5 hours since I got stuck at 3:44 and my brain is about to melt. Dan is the best seatmate you could have beside you on a day flight from Buenos Aires to Tokyo...
6:45 super important difference. I heard an opinion of someone I respect (can’t remember who atm)) on KZread saying the opt out opt in wouldn’t make a change. They need to see this...
what a state of the art Tedtalk, I have always been interested in behavioural concepts and in business concepts, but the application of both of these is just amazing. Thanks for the inspiration and the good laughter!
I love the insights this work gives us. How easily we are manipulated...and manipulate others. Advertising is well aware already.
Fantastic talk - thank you!
An AMAZING TED talk!

what an honor to have followed his course at coursera. :) it wa sin 2013 and i still remember a lot of it. it is sad they deleted the course. i am dutch and i did not. not because i was lazy but because i did not want to. we got the paper. that was the time i thought of your course, if they want something from you they make it easy. if they want something else they make it more difficult. it is an everyday thing.
Great great beautiful impressive talk . People can manipulate for their personal gains. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
The line is measuring the hypotenuse of half the table in one, and length in the other @ 3:00...

Wow I could not read until ms elliot in 4th grade (I wish I had his understanding) Amazing how he can talk and make science work for people like me because I have never read a book

What a brilliant mind. A coworker shared his book with me probably 10 years ago. It was the beginning of me thinking differently. It was the beginning of new interests, and perceptions,, that would go on to shape my thinking and interests. It helped me, among many other things, to have realistic expectations of others and myself.
