Systems Intelligence as Opportunity Appreciation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Options thinking, an opportunity evaluation framework founded on financial options theory, appreciates similar aspects in human decision making that systems intelligence celebrates. A key insight from the distortions in human thinking, that systems intelligence has highlighted, is that often humans make decisions not based on valuable long-term opportunity creation, but rather on hesitation and myopic behaviour. Humans tend to predict ‘cash-flows’, good feeling, social status, and so on; arguably, decisions based on predicting such outcomes are biased towards familiar alternatives with satisfying outcomes. Options theory is used in this essay to argue why opportunities are more valuable than is traditionally understood.
