Easter EP As AI agents get smarter, are we entering a golden age of hypercreativity? Or are we entering an age of homogenised culture where we all just recycle the same AI-generated ideas? @adigitaltanay.bsky.social & Jay explore this and much more with @babeheim.bsky.social youtu.be/coQnyaEw50s

Tune in for a new episode of @cognitations.bsky.social where @drboothroyd.bsky.social explains whether attractiveness preferences are universal or not among humans 👀 😉

The Cognitations podcast@cognitations.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Some have long thought that humans are universally attracted to specific features: think of symmetrical faces. Are these really universal? @adigitaltanay.bsky.social & Jay explore this and much more with @drboothroyd.bsky.social youtu.be/skwy9yKkytM

I had an absolutely wonderful time chatting with Tanay and Jay about how our understandings of attraction and mate choice have evolved (hah!) over the last 30 years, and pitching my argument that visual experience is central to our ideas of beauty. Thanks so much @cognitations.bsky.social

I had a wonderful time speaking to Tanay and Jay from the Cognitations podcast about why Pleistocene human societies were much more diverse—including being larger, more sedentary, and more hierarchical—than is often assumed. Check it out!!
