Доброго времени суток.

In his New York Times bestselling book Thinking, Fast and Slow, 2002 winner of the Nobel Prize in economics Daniel Kahneman discusses in great detail what he refers to as the two systems of the brain: System 1 and System 2.

System 1 “operates automatically and quickly with little or no effort and no sense of voluntary control.” System 1 is responsible for automatic answers to questions like, “What is 2 + 2?” This first system is the reason we know to look to the sky when we hear thunder or a passing jet and not the ground. Based on a ***lifetime of cues***, System 1 allows us to take in information, assimilate it, and make judgments on it simultaneously and effortlessly. Do we get it wrong sometimes? Sure. For example, how many of each animal did Moses bring on the ark? System 1 says two. Of course, that’s incorrect. Moses was more into burning bushes; Noah was the ark guy.
