New episode!! 🎉🎙️ An audio essay from @kensycoop all about names. The search for "name-like" symbols in animals is intensifying. But if the enterprise is to succeed, we first need to pause and ask ourselves: What even is a name? Listen: disi.org/in-search-of...

I was absolutely thrilled to chat with Kensy about metaphor for one of my favorite podcasts. Check it out!
Many Minds podcast@ManyMindsPod

New episode, first of 2026!! 🎉🎙️ A deep dive into metaphor with @steve_flusberg! Metaphors delight, provoke, captivate, shock, and galvanize us. What does it say about the human mind that we can't escape them—and frankly don't want to? Listen: disi.org/the-aura-of-...

The value of animal cultures podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/man… [A great bonus of the current AI hype might be that a lot of brilliant work on other intelligences and animal culture gets wider recognition - nature has been working for billions of years on solutions].

New episode!! 🎙️🎉 A chat w/ @PBrakes about animal cultures and animal conservation. Culture was once thought to be uniquely human. No longer. We now know it is found throughout the natural world. How does this complicate conservation? Listen: disi.org/the-value-of...

New episode!! 🎉🎙️ A conversation with @aliboyle6 & @JoBMahr about the functions of memory. We may not immediately think of memory as an evolutionary puzzle. But in certain respects it is quite puzzling indeed. Listen: disi.org/what-is-memo...

Many fear that AI companions will lead to social "deskilling," particularly in young people. But could we harness these bots for "upskilling" instead? Just one of the topics discussed in our latest episode, w/ Dr. Henry Shevlin (@dioscuri)! Listen: disi.org/the-age-of-soc…

I expect social AI to be one of the biggest ethical and political controversies of the next 5-10 years. In this podcast I tried to give a balanced overview of the pros, cons, implications, and uncertainties. Great fun recording this so thanks to Kensy for the discussion!
