Optimism Bias And Temporal Discounting
- Optimism Bias is when we are sure about the success of a certain project or venture and do not take into account the scenarios of failure.
- Temporal Discounting is a cognitive error where we make decisions taking into account the present condition, and not bothering about any future consequences.
