Cognitive Sovereignty: How Do You Incentivize Genuinely New Thoughts?

Building a Science of Consciousness by Qualia Research Institute

Episode notes

In this episode, we explore the importance of cognitive sovereignty - the principle that people should be free to think and feel as they wish, that ideas should be owned by those who come up with them, and that information should be shared responsibly. We discuss how this principle can incentivize smart people to focus their energies on having genuinely new thoughts, and how it can help to create the conditions for innovation and creativity.
