Bot GPT 3.5 Groupthink occurs when members of a group prioritize harmony and conformity over critical thinking and objective decision-making. Two common signs of groupthink include:
1. Pressure toward conformity: In a group affected by groupthink, members feel pressured to agree with the majority opinion or leader in order to maintain harmony and avoid conflict. This conformity can lead to overlooking alternative viewpoints or ignoring potential risks and consequences.
2. Group polarization effect: As a result of groupthink, members of the group may become more extreme in their beliefs and decisions. This phenomenon, known as group polarization, occurs when individuals within a group strengthen their existing attitudes and opinions through group discussion, ultimately leading to more extreme positions being taken by the group as a whole.
