Evidence updating

Evidence updating is the process of revising our beliefs or predictions based on new information. When we learn something new, we assess how it affects what we already think or know. For example, if we believe a coin is fair and then see it land heads multiple times, we might update our belief to think it’s biased. This process helps improve decision-making and understanding by continuously refining our views as more evidence becomes available, ensuring our beliefs accurately reflect the most current information.
