vue - Sendhil Mullainathan: Solving social problems with a nudge
http://www.ted.com MacArthur winner Sendhil Mullainathan uses the lens of behavioral economics to study a tricky set of social problems -- those we know how to solve, but don't. We know how to reduce child deaths due to diarrhea, how to prevent diabetes-related blindness and how to implement solar-cell technology ... yet somehow, we don't or can't. Why?

Great talk about the last mile problem, human innovation as an solution.
And nice mind trick at 8:56 with the colors ;-) -
This guy is a genius

Let people be. Don't manipulate anyone. Make the knowledge available freely. Encourage economic growth and the preservation of values. Instill values in kids and get rid of professionalism and scularism. There are no shortcuts to a allowing a sentient being to fully realize his/her potential

The funny thing is that the Template I teach from jesus is so far in front of him that it does solve the last mile problem by simple configuration of the village... doctor comes to you not you to them... so all parts of the last mile are instantly solved... no art no tech no scientific method... all crap! i had the solution before he found the problem! Not my fault humans refused to see what I teach as most important ever to mankind.

@uriahsw TED 06-07 blew my mind

yea just scrolling trough comments and a lot of you tube comments are really bad, the ones on ted are usually ones of value. lol agreed errors on the marginal utility create socio rigidity for the optimal choice in these sciences... people need to learn how to learn i donno i just came out of econ test

I don't think these are "intuitive" responses. I think these are autopilot responses. People create mindless cookie cutter, plug n play assumptions for almost anything in life. Its just more efficient; imagine yourself over-thinking everything. If a is after b then k must be after j... the problem is the world is not linear and we don't know how to turn this autopilot mechanism off. We end up being snowballs rolling down a mountain...

i hope that changes, i hear Obama is looking at finally introducing public health care in your country.
-
ah, so it's a sideeffect of your country not having public healthcare.

why isn't everyone using pens?
-
he uses a lot of mental and visual tricks to imply that people are stupid? i thought he was just being a judgemental asshole. Insulin does not come in a PILL. And a "typical insulin injection" is not from a vial and syringe, everyone has been using insulin pens for over 20 years!

One of the best talks and I watch ALL of TED. 5 stars!

..What?

@Charles33333 He is assuming the miles to be traveled to be fixed: so 55 miles to the Hummers produce a saving of 1.11 gallons (5 versus 6.11). The Priuses: 35:50 - 1,57:1.1 = a savings of only .47 gallons. Examining ONLY that one decision with other variables fixed makes it a savings benefit.
