ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Human beings are strange enough alone. Put us together and things get really interesting.
Collective Intelligence: Why Groups Get Smart, Strange and Stuck is a popular-science podcast about the forces that shape what humans do together. Hosted by Prof. Niccolò Pescetelli and the team at People Supported Intelligence, it uses remarkable stories and surprising research from psychology, economics, biology, history and beyond to explore how ideas spread, norms take hold, crowds move, societies cooperate and intelligent people produce collectively foolish decisions.
