👉 "Yet math" refers to the phenomenon where people believe they can solve a complex problem or understand a difficult concept immediately, only to realize later that the solution requires significantly more effort and time than initially anticipated. This cognitive bias arises from a combination of overconfidence, the illusion of understanding, and the tendency to underestimate the complexity of the task. Despite initial apparent success, the "yet" signifies that the problem is far from solved, and a deeper, more systematic approach is needed. This concept highlights the gap between perceived knowledge and actual expertise, emphasizing the importance of patience and persistence in tackling challenging mathematical problems.
