Comments by "Peter deWolf" (@StoneShards) on "Professor explains 'the Ocasio-Cortez effect' on campuses" video.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of cognitive bias in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabilities. The reverse happens as well: high ability people tend to underestimate their own competence.
