> This highlights the danger, as humans, we seem quite susceptible to believing things that seem plausible. This is probably quite an important part of just getting through the day - we don’t have time to check everything we read or hear - so we have to make some assumptions about what is true and what is not.
Truth is a relatively new concept. Humans spent eons surviving on 3 rules:
- Can I eat it?
- Can f** it?
- Will it kill me?
We're still dependant on / wired for those today.
