Falling For it: Brains Wired for Bias - Lab 113
Jumping to conclusions, letting stories override statistics, and getting swept up in the crowd—turns out, we’re all wired for it. Titi and Zakiya explore how evolutionary psychology and group identity shape the way we process information, especially in our fast-paced digital world. From the spread of misinformation about Tylenol to viral rapture predictions, the hosts share relatable moments and surprising examples to illuminate why bias is so tough to beat. ✨ Want to be part of our upcoming planetarium film, Remixed: The Unexpected Side of Science?
