Thinking Fast & Slow Ch. 1, 2

Our dialogue started out with the flexibility of system 1 and we came to the conclusion that it depended on the person, for example, not everyone can intuitively play chess. Other times people become lazy even though their system 1 is very developed, maybe it is because they think so much already.

One of the things that I found interesting  was that something that was part of your system 2 becomes part of your system 1. Like driving a car, at the beginning one has a hard time driving, one thinks about everything going on and the technicalities of how to drive. After driving for a while and consecutively the driving system becomes automatic and it becomes an intuition (system 1).

Another thing I found interesting is that after using your system 2 too much you have less will power, meaning that it is harder to decline a cookie or a cupcake  after working on math problems.
