| 0:00.0 | In this lesson's episode, explore how moral psychology and cognitive science are redefining models of decision-making. |
| 0:06.7 | Discover why instinctual patterns reveal more than demographics, |
| 0:10.4 | understand how life experiences and core instincts shape worldview, |
| 0:13.8 | and uncover how these profiles can predict behavior, influence choices, and guide strategy. |
| 0:32.6 | And after you align with these data scientists, then you then obviously this, this is starting to manifest. Yeah. So when it when guess my, I'll ask you, when does this turn into, I guess, |
| 0:44.0 | path sites or is this like when does this actually turn into something tangible that |
| 0:48.0 | you can build a model out of and what does that model start to look like? |
| 0:51.4 | Yeah. |
| 0:51.7 | So six, six years ago, we, we found that there was this melding of, of, |
