From the Ted Talk by Dolly Chugh: How to let go of being a "good" person -- and become a better person
Unscramble the Blue Letters
So let me give you an example of bounded ecthtilaiy at work. Unconscious bias is one place where we see the effects of bounded ethicality. So unoiusnccos bias refers to anosatsiiocs we have in our mind, the shortcuts your brain is using to organize information, very likely outside of your asrawnees, not necessarily lining up with your conscious beliefs. Researchers Nosek, bnajai and Greenwald have looked at data from millions of people, and what they've found is, for example, most wtihe Americans can more quickly and easily associate white pploee and good things than black people and good things, and most men and women can more quickly and ealsiy associate men and secince than women and science. And these associations don't necessarily line up with what people consciously think. They may have very egalitarian views, in fact. So sometimes, that 11 million and that 40 just don't line up.

Original Text
So let me give you an example of bounded ethicality at work. Unconscious bias is one place where we see the effects of bounded ethicality. So unconscious bias refers to associations we have in our mind, the shortcuts your brain is using to organize information, very likely outside of your awareness, not necessarily lining up with your conscious beliefs. Researchers Nosek, Banaji and Greenwald have looked at data from millions of people, and what they've found is, for example, most white Americans can more quickly and easily associate white people and good things than black people and good things, and most men and women can more quickly and easily associate men and science than women and science. And these associations don't necessarily line up with what people consciously think. They may have very egalitarian views, in fact. So sometimes, that 11 million and that 40 just don't line up.
