AI Transcript:
Every one of us has a built in bullshit detector. The question is just, do we use it or do we get fooled by it?
When we meet people, we perceive them in the context of where we are in, how they look, how they speak, how they are interacting in the environment we're in. And sometimes that is fooling us, because we are just part of the ecosystem where we are in. And we don't know if the person is truly themselves, or if the person is playing a role.
Sometimes it takes us weeks, sometimes it takes us years to detect that the other person is not the person that we think the person is. Important for us to be curious and learn more about other people. And I've learned this for myself over time, that sometimes I feel there is something wrong, but I'm not listening to my internal bullshit detector.
