Vitalik elaborates on the balance between "idea-driven" and "data-driven" decision making.

PANews August 12 news, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik discussed the “idea-driven” versus “data-driven” decision-making models in his latest article. He pointed out that ideas not only influence individual cognition but also serve as a social construct for community coordination, aiding in division of labor and goal focus. However, excessive rigidity may deviate from the original intention. He suggested adopting a balanced approach of “data-driven choice of ideas” and “principles over ideology” to enhance the efficiency of individual and collective decision-making and to prevent extremism or over-reliance on elite leadership.
