    "title": "The Power of the Representativeness Heuristic",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "We present a computational model of the\nrepresentativeness heuristic. This model is trained on\nthe entire English language Wikipedia corpus, and is\nable to use representativeness to answer questions\nspanning a very large domain of knowledge. Our\ntrained model mimics human behavior by generating\nthe probabilistic fallacies associated with the\nrepresentativeness heuristic. It also, however, achieves\na high rate of accuracy on unstructured judgment\nproblems, obtained from large quiz databases and from\nthe popular game show Who Wants to be a\nMillionaire?. Our results show how highly simplistic\ncognitive processes, known to be responsible for some\nof the most robust and pervasive judgment biases, can\nbe used to generate the type of flexible, sophisticated,\nhigh-level cognition observed in human decision\nmakers.",
