Kahneman's System 1 and System 2

Kahneman's System 1 and System 2 are two ways our brain processes information. System 1 operates automatically and quickly, making instant judgments based on intuition and experience—think of recognizing a familiar face or completing a common phrase. System 2 is slower, more deliberate, and requires effort, used when solving complex problems or making decisions that need careful thought. Together, these systems help us navigate daily life efficiently, with System 1 handling routine tasks and System 2 kicking in for more challenging situations.
