🌱 The importance of intellectual humility
💡 Motivated reasoning and the intelligence trap

I really enjoyed this wide-ranging chat with David Elikwu FRSA ⚔️ for his podcast The Knowledge. We covered a whole range of topics connected to my books and behavioural science in general. I hope you enjoy the conversation: theknowledge.io/davidrobson-1/

Grinning like a kid on his birthday at receiving my first copies of The Laws of Connection! Thanks so much to the team at Canongate, and Carrie Plitt for having brought this into reality.

I can’t wait to share it with you all in the first week of June!

So pleased to see my piece on 'hyperphantasia' go live on the The Guardian website. It examines fascinating research on people with incredibly vivid mind's eyes.

If you prefer to read from paper, it will be tomorrow's edition of the The Observer theguardian.com/science/2024/a…

I’m used to writing about irrationality, but this bias really surprised me:

When we consider someone to be a “hero”, we are happier to see them exploited for the work they do.

One of my favourite side projects is co-writing with Alessia Franco about Italian science and culture. It’s a chance to work with a beloved friend, practise translation and discover new research that is little known in the UK.
