- Ever met someone who is so extremely dumb that they don’t know how stupid they actually are? Ever tried to explain a new concept to someone who clearly doesn’t get it? Well, you’re not alone. Researchers have come up with a theory that explains why the less we know about something, the more confident we are in our ability to master it. So there’s a term for Dumb and Dumber? Yes. And it is more common than you might think. Join us today as we explore the avenues of dumbness, in this episode of the Infographics show - What is the Dunning Kruger effect?

The problem is that the ego is connected or rather resides within the intellectualized part
of the mind. The ego rules. It is always right. It's great and better than you. So when
confronted with information that proves the individuals weaknesses, rather than
acknowledge the fact, the ego when 'challenged', it's #1, it utilizes self deception.
By doing that the individual still can maintain it's sense of greatness that the ego
requires. The result, a fool is convinced they are a genius by means of self deception.
Self deception works against our awareness and it is one of man's greatest problems.
Or in other words, the whole mental process is probably flawed and almost all humans
are not aware of this problem.
Being treated like a black sheep for having that self awareness has left me in disbelief numerous times. The movie Idiocracy explains it perfectly.
I always noticed the dumbest people were either self righteous assholes or stubborn as hell....thanks for the info!!
Ego is the worst problem humans have. Put that aside, and life get's better for everyone !!
So accurate and we'll said.
I absolutely agree with you and the other commenters too.
It is absolutely the ego and the way it makes people believe they are always right that is the number 1 problem, or quite possibly the only problem or the basis for all problems within humanity.

I personally think that toxic people who spend time gossiping, criticizing and laughing at others are all perfect examples of the dunning kruger effect. Confident, happy, and content people don't have time to bolster ego by tearing others apart.
Yup, exactly. The sad thing is that 95% of modern society fits into that toxic category.
@@Punkpsychobilly I would say 99%,I feel like I'm observing this world and when I say my opinion(or facts),nobody want to understand because they are too much dumb,then they get toxic against me for using my brain and not hiding the truth.I can't myself understand how primitive they are.

I dared not say anything so I just kept letting her vent until she flipped out and threw my bowl of cereal at the ceiling and yelled at me *LOOK WHAT YOU DID* now in my mind 7yo me is sitting here thinking "you dumb crazy bitch, you did that not me." but I just said nothing and cleaned it up while smiling.

The more educated I have become, the more insecure I am about my breadth of knowledge. I often look things up just to double check myself. When I was a teenager I thought I knew everything.
Teenagers (and anyone else) who think they know everything may be cognitively smart, but their lack of wisdom renders them morons. Wisdom * IQ = relativistic intelligence & ingenuity.
Clinical narcissists with high IQ's act like idiots because they're incapable of ever learning from their own mistakes. Which pretty much makes them idiots with high IQ's...
That's real Dunning-Kruger effect.
I'm not young enough to know everything...
Mankind as a whole know nothing. Our so called intelligence just demands more questions.
Julia. The less you know, the more sure you are. The more you read, study and reflect, the more you realise what you know is a mere drop in the ocean of the knowledge and things to learn out there.
I once stopped a guy who was driving on a flat tire. He told me "it's ok, it's only flat on the bottom" and drove away. No joke lol
Luke W So you stopped a guy to tell him he has a flat tire, as if he didn't know that. Right? Because having a flat tire is very hard to notice. Right?And then he said a classic joke "it's only flat on the bottom". You're the stupid one.
Cosmin Iancu I was working for a company that managed parking structures and parking lots. I used to stop people all the time who had flats and didn't realize it. Not everyone is a genius like you apparently. College town, lots of alcohol. Even met a chick from Japan who had no idea how to use her room key. Not a key card, a real key.
Cosmin Iancu
Also, the guy didn't say it as a joke. He got out of the car, looked at the flat tire, got back in and drove off.
Just because many people are stupid, that doesn't mean this guy in particular was also stupid. The fact that he said a classic joke, makes me believe he already knew about the flat tire.
very classic joke indeed.
maybe youre just stupid for not having the wit to understand the joke.

Incompetence is not the same as stupidity
Incompetence is when someone is simply terrible at something.
Stupidity is when those who are incompetent don't have the mental skillset to realise that they are incompetent.
Educating yourself is the best cure for ignorance.
Deep.
@@fahrenheigh deep and proven. Haha
But that would require to face the fact that your ARE ignorant and do know nothing to begin with, which makes you a fool. Thus they rather resort to stuff like Flat Earth where they feel like they have meaning (maybe even superiority because you can frame someone else dumb for being gullible since you figured out a secret) even thought it does not take a lot of effort.
edit: Thus you need a reason to overcome your self-blinding ignorance and face the fears and uncertainties that might come with that.
This may be true, but ignorance and stupidity are two very different things. One speaks to knowledge on a given topic. The other is a lack of mental capability. You could be a genius mathematician, but be completely ignorant as to how someone might play a piano for instance.
@Noti Shounen : No. It is very helpful and I highly encourage anyone to educate themselves throughout their entire life, but it is not a cure, and certainly not the "best".
Without the feedback of a teacher, or someone else with greater (or at least different) wisdom, a self taught student has no way to check their own ego. And since humans are so very egotistical (
The more educated you become the more you realize you don’t know anything.
Education to me is like money is to most people. The more I get, the more I want. I only want more and I can never have enough. Given an infinite series of ..........
dots which contain all the knowledge in the universe, I hope I have achieved the first dot of knowledge........................................
So true.
Very true
@JoJo Skye You hit the nail on the head! There is so many things that an everyday average Joe or Jane believes what they self taught or what they've been taught by like minded people is correct. Because of this they become stubborn and close minded on topics and refuse to learn the facts about those particular topics. Sometimes even the most intelligent people can become close minded.
Who said it first?
I believe this effect is stronger than we might realize. Is it possible the entire human race is trapped in this mindset?
I'm going out on a limb here and saying "Yup"

In my big home city, everyone knows everyone by name.
One time we had a guy robbing a pizza store near the hood. The guy who was wearing a mask, approached the checkout with a pistol. The store owner immediately recognised the thief, because of his short height. While the robber looked elsewhere for a second, he pulled out a shotgun, and shot a warning shot. The robber quickly ran out the door with the client the owner just served a minute ago. The manager decided to follow them outside only to see both of them entering and driving away with a brown coupé.

@Nico Nicoleee It's called depression.
Naddy Nodge,
I don't call anyone stupid, sometimes we need to do stupid things in order to learn that it's stupid. Rather than calling a person stupid I call the behaviour stupid.
Once they've learnt that it's stupid and do it again they're just acting like they're stupid.
That's not how intelligence works. You either have it or you don't.

For me I dont care if somebody isnt book smart or whatever, just have basic knowledge. What caused me to search up this video is when people lack basic deduction. They see somebody doing something and instead of thinking of the reason for them doing that first, they just get emotional.

I think the way that it works is if you think you are simply smart, then you are stupid. If based on a few cases, you come to the conclusion that you are stupid, you are at least average. I'm not sure how to tell if you are actually smart, though. I tried to come up with an example, but I realized that all the ones that I came up with described me, and I was therefore most likely being biased.
@@autumn4442 Judging by your comment, you're really stupid.
You can truly be smart. I have noticed that "smart" people dont go about rubbing in how smart they are. They are very respectful, humble, willing to teach, learn from others and open, they will always admit what they dont know unlike people who pretend to know everything, and just think theyre better than others because they think they have "more knowledge" and that that somehow makes them "better".
Cody NvidiaGeforce
I beg to differ. Some people are like that but not everyone. Intelligence does not imply things like humility. On the contrary, many intelligent people have things like aspergers and are the opposite of what you describe. One possibility is that you perceive nice people to be smart, either because you are intellectually dishonest or because people who are willing to learn and realise that they are not perfect will put in more effort into learning and know more stuff.
Not at all. It just means you are self aware like me.

"I know that I am intelligent because I know that I know nothing"

@Mrcowpox: Rockoyhead. :P Indeed, though I would say intelligence would be the ease to which you can learn, and wisdom would be the amount you have learned. Therefore a more intelligent person would not necessarily know more than a less intelligent person despite the advantage.

The more you learn, the more you realize how little you know.
That is why humility is so important, it's there to balance out the ego. Without the humility that comes with self-reflection, there is little or no wisdom. Without wisdom (the ability to reason), intelligence is little more than memory.

READ IF INTERESTED:
Intelligence is a thing people seem to get confused about. Often when you think of an intelligent person, you think of someone who is well educated and who is successful. However that’s not always the case at all. There is a difference between being book smart, and being intuitively and or logically intelligent. Just because someone is better at math per se than someone who isn’t, doesn’t mean they are smarter than the other person. Many variables come to play but being put simply intelligence is not defined by how well educated you are. One person may be better at math, however the other person may be better at putting puzzles together. People’s brains work different from one another so the psychological mind set differs for each person. Not all stupid people think they aren’t stupid, just like not all smart people think they are smart. Part of it has to do with ignorance and of course self motivation and self esteem.
Titanoboa Exactly, intelligence is a very vague term. There are many different types. But what bothers me even more than that is this video makes it seem like you can't improve on things.
Intelligence quotient is a measure of capability , much like a measure of how much liquid a bucket can hold. If you only ever put a cup full in then having a huge bucket is pointless.
If your IQ is very low then your bucket is small, you are never going to be able to fit in more than it can hold, regardless of how hard you try.
Unfortunately the modern education system is still very much tied to the industrial revolution and often fills the otherwise large buckets with rocks, leaving little space for what is useful to know in life.
Intelligence is measured by one's capability to absorb and understand new concepts and ideas. Being inherently intuitive is a measure of wisdom.
Today we live in a society wherein the vast majority lack wisdom, and are thus too arrogant or ignorant to improve their individual knowledge; which cripples their intelligence.
When I was young, I thought I was incredibly smart. When I was in my late teens and early twenties I thought I was really stupid. Now I came to the conclusion that I probably am both intelligent and yet able to do hilariously stupid things.
One thing about the Dunning-Kruger-Effect: If I understood it correctly it does mean that incompetent people tend to greatly overvalue their own ability but not in return that all people who think highly of their ability are actually stupid.
"One person may be better at math, however the other person may be better at putting puzzles together."
While this is not wrong, the implications of it surely are. Fact of the matter is, if you perform well in one category of measurement you are very likely to also perform well in any other.
Still, you are correct, intelligence and knowledge aren't the same thing, in fact, intelligence is pretty well described by the time you need to acquire knowledge, your learning speed.
when you are dumb but all the non-sense words you talking about is actually pretty understandable and educatable
*C L E V E R*
What about people who KNOW they are dumb?
What about people like me who are slightly, slightly intelligent. Yet are aware of their stupidity? The inconsistencies that make up road blocks in our minds that hinder our full potential?
Smart enough to understand the smart peoples inside jokes about you, ya so fun, wish I had courage to leave this place.
This vidio makes no since. I knoe I am write bacause I am good at spelin and tha dunning Kruger affect does not exist.
Right Wing ya u is corect?
da durnin ffect is made bi da govrment tu control us is a lie
Lol funniest thing I've heard all day
Like
Right Wing I love how you spelled Dunning Kruger correctly
Ur way of writing shows u r also a dumb
Smarter people don't feel smart.
Dumb people feel smart.
Wtf? 4 months after and I get likes?
Paul Chung agreed
Nope. Completely disagree on this. People who are smart know they're smart (generally) although I do agree dumb people tend to not realize
I wouldn't say this is entirely true, I think geniuses don't feel like they're geniuses. While dumb people might think of themselves as such. A genius would just say they're pretty good at what they do.
@@QCLagstone That's more or less what I meant, but I do feel that, generally, when someone's smart, they have a humble idea that they're smart. Although this is from my experience, I could be totally wrong here
@@ayoitscat I believe that hypothesis is confirmed by Dunning and Kruger, I also believe it to be true myself. People who are smart will believe that they are, but they'll be aware of their shortcomings. Just like how a virtuous pianist might say that they're alright at the instrument, it's because their high amount of skill and knowledge allows them to see possibilities and opportunities for improvement.
I would love to send this to a relative who thinks anyone who disagrees with her is full of BS. She brings up things and gets angry with you for disagreeing with her. Causes you of bringing it up. As this political year starts she is going crazy. Says Trump is the Anti-Christ and Biden is great. She has tossed aside friends who disagree with her.
Sometimes we rely on other people's acknowledgment and validation, and it's not always a bad thing. Sometimes, when multiple people rate, compliment, or insult you based on your qualification/capacity, the majority of them are most likely right. It depends on multiple factors, but the majority of the same opinion when presented truthfully, without shade and/or attitude, that'll be worth taking into consideration. If it's your closest social circle, it's argued to be more or less truthful based on relations, but overall think about it.
The dumbest thing I ever saw someone do was marry my ex-wife.
LOL!!!!!
Best comment
TheVagolfer That needs to happen to my brother's wife. Keeping my fingers crossed for the day he gets rid of that $#!):!$!#$$##;#!!=/:#.
That was more likely ignorance. Lack of experience can make people look very stupid. But I get it.
What was your excuse?
After reading the title the first thing that came to my mind was *THE PAULS*
The first thing I thought was the Americans xD
Tyler Solvestri
Me too lol
Where u from btw ?
Hatsuharu Akimoto I'm Spaniard, but We are also retards, we are from mate?
The first thing that shouldve come to your mind was me
And their followers.
All I can think of is my sister. She's got this weird obsession with trying to be an "educated intellect" but in reality she just spews off-the-wall and random fun facts relevant to the topic and sometimes irrelevant. The fun part of it all is how she can sometimes get half the facts wrong + miss out on some important bits of information but you can't step in, because she gets insanely defensive to the point of offensive. She will vehemently (and I don't use that word lightly) press what skewed facts she knows onto you like they're written in stone. Few years ago I asked her what the dunning kruger effect was, she actually said "no" and I dismissively said "oh, nvm". I doubt she ever got the hint, much less looked into it.
When someone calls me dumb i always say ‘ik’😂
Stupid people are happier.
Smart people are often depressed.
Smart people think they are stupid.
Stupid people think they are smart.
I always thought that a stupid should marry a smart. That way they can balance each other out.
@artillery only I want someone who is smarter then me but not a show off
Gosh no! Terrible idea diluting the smart gene less geniuses
Whom do you reckon I should marry, a stupid girl or a smart one?
If I choose stupid one, thinking of myself as smartass, then that also means I'm the stupid person actually, because stupid people think they're smart.
@@syedkumayl6855 u should go with a stupid one..... I would 🤪
artillery only they won’t realize someone is smarter if dumb, thus the intelligent will notice the limitations the stupid one has
Oh but they do. You can see it in their eyes, when faced with simple reasoning, deductive or not, and their eyes go wide.
That is where the denial starts.
Max lopolo And if you try to prove your point (which they don’t understand), sometimes they’ll get angry. My little brother is like that.
I'm smart enough to know I'm sometimes right and wrong.
Im dumb enough to knowledge that Im always wrong. There hasnt been a single moment where I have been right about something
This reminds me of tiktok,people post dumb and cringe things on their and they don't even realize it,and this video proves it
Flat earthers are all around the globe!
I get it
I see what you did there
The Earth is a cube
Jokeing
lol, think about their tweet for a moment, "Flat earthers are all around the GLOBE!"
clearly whoever is behind the flat earth society doesn't know what globe means.
UYSkuti [GD] The original tweet was actually "The Flat Earth society has members all around the globe" xD
I actually sat across a table from someone who tried to defend the notion that the Earth was flat. I really tried to be respectful. i think that was my downfall.
just out of curiosity, if you gave him a disk like a hockey puck to represent the earth how do you think he would of tried to explain day and night. ie. how would a flat earth move with respect to the sun to give us light and dark
I would probably humour them and question them for my amusement.. But I wouldn't try and change their minds. Too frustrating..lol
alex trebek I was thinking that same argument. What I could have asked when I travel across the globe and not changing the time on my watch I experience night when it should be day.
Mark Steed You mean egging him on.
Pea Stone ..Yes...I know its wrong but its the only way I can suppress the urge to teach them or pull my hair out
I am a therapist. I was trying to explain infant CPR to a parent. I told him to turn the infant upside down and pat it on the back. I told him to use gravity to help remove the lodged item. He replied, “ What’s gravity?” I internally shook my head in despair.
I don't beleive you. You're either lying or he was trolling you
Yes I have seen so many people confident without knowing anything.
is this why so many of them are in management positions?
thats the dilbert principle
So true. Unfortunately intelligence and earnings have very little correlation.
Oh yes! Exactly!
Ha ha ha I love it and the rest are doctors who tell you its all in your head and you have cancer
@Kelvin Klopper You're not wrong but still there's a lot of them there... who aren't that smart...
How do you get these topics do you sit around a table and discuss with your team members everyday?
Pretty much.
The Infographics Show lol
you can come up with them by yourself too btw
The Infographics Show Before I watched this video when I read the title I said to myself; Ah, the eternal question that will never be answered. 🤣👍❣💻🔮🎭🍋🚔
The Infographics Show 👍👍👍
I don't want to brag about it BUT I'm so lucky to be so smart. Most of the time, humble people have LOTS of good reasons to be humble.
I remember hearing dumb people calling me dumb. I had straight A's, but I kept it to myself.
There was a saying I heard in grad school: People with a bachelor's degree think they know everything about their subject. Those with a Master's think they know nothing about their field. Someone who gets a PhD realizes the truth; they really don't know anything but neither does anybody else.
You didn't know anything after half a decade of research?
@@andrewc1036 ... but neither did anyone else!
Exactly!! The more I learn, the more appallingly dumb I realise I truly am.
yup, it's flat.
I've ceased claiming to know anything, but I am reasonably certain that the amount of information held in even the greatest of human minds is effectively nothing compared to the amount of information that exists.
The dumbest thing I've ever witnessed was a friend's essay. I forget the topic, I only remember it was completely unrelated with the stuff he ended up writing. It was completely unaware. I remember he wrote *a lot* of nonsense, but one was particularly golden: out of nowhere he begins to talk about Gandhi... and how this brutal warlord conquered the entire world with his army of Yaks.
this guy should be a historical fiction writer. I would pay money for a book on Ghandi the yak warlord.
lol XD in his defence, I know what he was trying to say. He was thinking about Genghis Khan and the Mongols conquering a huge empire, but he knew nothing about that (or anything else, to be honest) so we ended up with Gandhi and his army of yaks conquering the entire world.
Kauan R. M. Klein did a teacher show you that essay to the whole class? Cause teachers show that paper as an example of how to fail the class.
David Saylor That's what my german teacher did with one of my friends essays and the funny thing was that he was bragging about his essay the week before...
Kauan R. M. Klein
Suuuuure. Your "friend" wrote it. Lol
Real human pride its to humble you'reself, love being wrong and admit.
My ex is an engineer. Any time someone critiques him, he rejects the feedback then proceeds to insult and disregard the person offering the critique. When I pointed out this bad habit to him, he dismissed it and proceeded to insult me. When I told him, “in fact, you’re doing it right now”, he confessed that every single woman he has dated has told him this. He then stated that they’re all wrong. When I told him I wanted to break up with him because of it, he was legitimately confused.
So at 50 years old, he remains never married, childless, lonely, and desperate for companionship 🤷🏾♀️
