episode Episode 7 - Knowledge Shelf Life cover

Description

Do we understand everything we know? It was estimated that that up until 1900, the amount of information was doubled every 100 years, but by 1945 it doubled every 25 years. In 2021, the amount of information doubled every 12 hours. Further research identified the “Knowledge Half Life” as the amount of time it takes before half the knowledge or facts in a particular area is made obsolete or superseded by new facts. To that end, we discuss how our own interpretation of information and facts evolves, or changes, throughout our lives and the influence this has upon on our thoughts and decisions.
