My guests today are Richard Thaler and Alex Imas.

Richard Thaler is a theorist in behavioral economics and a professor of Behavioral Science and Economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. In 2017, he was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his contributions to behavioral economics.

Alex Imas is a professor of Behavioral Science, Economics and Applied AI and a Vasilou Faculty Scholar at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. He studies behavioral economics with a focus on cognition and mental representation in dynamic decision-making.
