Interested in your consiousness? Prices start at $2800 and when I have my James Bond villain house, I'll definately be having some of their 96"x130" works.

I find the tricky question is turning more general areas of our thinking and reasoning into trading specific ideas. But, I'm working on it.
It's worth the effort. I've carefully digested every word of his and read all the papers and slowly but surely it leads you in a completely new direction. But a lot of things don't make sense. You will need to get used to the feeling, or of people, saying you are wrong and that you should use your common sense.stueytrader wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 2:31 pmI find the tricky question is turning more general areas of our thinking and reasoning into trading specific ideas.

You have to learn to detach yourself from 'normal' thought processes. That takes time.

Yes, I suppose so in both senses. I have tried to apply some aspects directly to my trading, but not got as far as I probably should have done. More study of these areas and papers needed. And the idea of switching away from 'normal' thinking is definitely something I think true of trading in particular.Euler wrote: ↑Tue Oct 22, 2019 6:04 pmIt's worth the effort.

Lengthy and related to AI, but another interview to gain some wisdom from. It's interesting to hear his comments on deep learning.

thx peter..i deleted my post when i checked back on original date thread started
ps i bought the book also on your advice..real heavy going, thin pages, lots of them and no pictures like chimp paradox
Every time I listen or read anything from Daniel it seems to send me off on a trail of thought & I never really know how it all began by time the trail ends. I'm on my 3rd round of the book, this time one segment at a time... I think it will take years to fully understand some of Daniel's work, the rest may just be well over my head, but it's worth while to take the timesmallplayer wrote: ↑Thu Jan 16, 2020 8:53 pmthx peter..i deleted my post when i checked back on original date thread started

Maybe there's a bit of a case for discovering things for yourself at first and forming your own opinions, which you can always then later compare to what the books say if you want or need.
