Robert Sapolsky: Finding Meaning in a World without Free Will
Manage episode 386496837 series 3286012
In this episode of "Into the Magic Shop," Dr. Jim Doty hosts a conversation with esteemed behavioral scientist and Stanford professor of biology and neurology, Robert Sapolsky. They discuss Sapolsky's work in primatology, his experiences in the field and his views on free will, most recently explored in great length in his latest book, “Determined: A Science of Life without Free Will.” Sapolsky shares his skepticism towards the concept of free will, arguing that our actions are influenced by factors like genes, evolution, and environmental interactions. He also challenges traditional notions of moral responsibility. While Dr. Doty and Sapolsky explore the existential implications of these ideas and the notion that every action is predetermined, Sapolsky offers a hopeful conclusion to his research suggesting that change is possible even without free will.
