Why You Have Never Thought Alone

Have you ever thought you knew how something works only to realize, when asked to explain it, that your understanding was a lot shallower than you thought? Welcome to *The Knowledge Illusion*, where cognitive scientists Steven Sloman and Philip Fernbach argue that human intelligence is deeply collective. We never think alone – our brains evolved to collaborate, to divide cognitive labor, and to share knowledge with others. This video will take you on a wild, gonzo-style ride through the illusion of individual genius, the limits of our knowledge, and why storytelling and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do. Get ready to challenge what you thought you knew about thinking!
