Why do we care about this architecture? #

Align to how we manage information in a moment #

Memory #

• Is finite in the short term
• Long term memory is primarily based on interest 
• Short or long, it’s fickle and fungible
• We will confabulate ‘memory’ to build a better story
• Chunking aids memory
• Managing information-overwhelm aids memory

Meaning #

• We want meaning so much that we’ll scent information from steps away and follow it through
• We will impress meaning when we don’t have enough context, and believe it wholeheartedly without further questioning its closeness to right or wrong

Cognitive bias #

• We have preformed, well-worn pathways that we lean into for decisions that feel similar enough to be relevant
• They are so quickly engaged we rarely even realize it
• This field, especially, is constantly adding understanding and hypothesis
