Okay kiddo, let's talk about bias distortion. Imagine you have an apple in front of you. When you look at it, your brain automatically makes decisions about what colors it sees, how big or small it is, and how it might taste. This is called perception, and it's how our brains interpret the things around us.
Now, imagine that someone else comes along and looks at the same apple. They might see it differently than you do because everyone's perception is a little different. This is where bias distortion comes in.
Bias distortion is when a person's perception is influenced by their beliefs or opinions. For example, if someone really likes apples and thinks they're the best fruit ever, they might see the apple in front of them as bigger or juicier than it really is because they want it to be the best apple ever.
This can happen in lots of different situations, not just with apples. It's important to recognize bias distortion because it can affect how we make decisions or view certain situations. One way to combat bias distortion is to try to look at things objectively and consider all perspectives. By doing this, we can try to make the best decisions based on the facts, rather than our own biases or opinions.
