Two cognitive scientists talk about everything society from science and philosophy to politics and art.
How can we make sense of the variety of beliefs that are prevalent in society?
Peter Steiglechner joins the podcast to talk about the role of identity and group belonging in understanding why people believe what they believe. We chat about modeling belief networks and understanding the role of bias in our engagement with information. We also cover how disagreements emerge and when consensus is possible, and more generally about existing in a group and dealing with a diversity of opinion.
