Think About It
The fundamental reasons why this tool can really help decision making
Making good decisions is not easy
We tend to boil decisions down to simple “yes or no” decisions. But the world we live in is not binary. Intuitive thinking uses very little energy, but it can be wrong more often than we imagine. Furthermore, we like to concentrate on a single answer, leaving no room for dissonance. We also need to understand the difference between data and evidence. Data is just data, evidence needs to be associated with an hypothesis. Finally, bias remains an issue that must always be considered.
...And that is were ProveIt-HI can make a difference! There is no guarantee that the proposed Answer is the best: Another Responder might come up with a different solution. In such a case, you will understand where the difference comes from!

Things have gotten worse in the last decades
We can’t be sure why, but it seems the last decades have seen a decline in rational thinking and an increase dependency on “feel” and “believe”. However, critical thinking matters now more than ever and we must, especially for the success of your organization, fight fragmented thinking and cognitive decline. Offloading everyday mental tasks to AI chatbots is certainly not helping.
...And there is no apparent improvement!

AI tools is not the solution
We can’t be opposed to AI as it can be useful for a multitude of things, such as translation, image generation and data generation. But it’s wise for leaders to not become overly dependent on the technology. In practice, if people skip the most intellectual demanding part of a task, they sacrifice their own critical thinking. Recent studies have shown that overreliance on generative AI tools weaken our capacity for independent problem solving.
...ProveIt-HI does not replace AI tools but it improves your thinking process. It will help your critical thinking, something not automatically protected with AI tools.

Evidence-based critical thinking is core to a solution
At the heart of critical thinking is the ability to formulate effective questions. It’s no coincidence this tool will not let you ask a “yes or no” question: you can’t decide in advance what the answer will be. Nor can you add more than 3 possible answers: “critical ignoring” is needed to beat information overload. As the Responder you don’t decide what the best answer is, but the Quality and Strength of your evidences do. Furthermore, working on different possible answers only improves your decision-making according to a cognitive scientist. So start obsessing about how you can get better. Concerning cognitive skills: Use it or lose it!
...And that is exactly what ProveIt-HI will help you with!
