It's almost as if the people who love evopsych are all reverse engineering bullshit explanations to bolster their established worldview, like some kind of bias, a bias they're trying to confirm 🤔

if evopsych has only one hater, that hater is me. If AI has only one hater, that hater is also me. We do not need to adapt to some purported future breakthrough in AI. we do not need it. If a technology has had overwhelmingly negative social effects it should be possible to just do away with it

Entirely New Monkey Species Discovered in The Congo Rainforest, And It Doesn't Look Impressed

Well, in fact, throughout history, human nature and cultural evolution have proven that almost every major technological and communicative medium is quickly co-opted for sexual expression, exploration, or commerce. From the earliest cave paintings to written literature, photography, video, and […]

New research argues kids don’t just absorb culture, they build it. From Nicaraguan Sign Language to hunter-gatherer foraging knowledge, peer groups run parallel cultural systems adults rarely see. #Anthropology #CulturalEvolution #ChildDevelopment www.anthropology.net/p/ch….

Children Are Not Just Learning Culture. They’re Making It.
A new synthesis in Behavioral and Brain Sciences argues that peer groups of children produce, transmit, and sometimes preserve knowledge that adults never touch.

5/ So the key point is not just that cultural solutions evolve. Problems evolve too resulting in co-evolution 🔁🛠️
This makes human culture much more open-ended, strange and interesting!

4/ Also in the issue is a new paper from @replicatedtypo.bsky.social and @matcharbonneau.bsky.social on “Modelling the emergence of open-ended cultural evolution”
This asks why does human culture not just accumulate, but keep opening up new problems, new goals and new ways of thinking? 🤔

Modelling the emergence of open-ended cultural evolution
Abstract. Humans stand alone in terms of their potential to collectively and cumulatively change their culture in an open-ended manner. This open-endedness

5/ Winters and Charbonneau’s argument is that open-ended cultural evolution depends on the co-evolution of:
1. cultural systems -> techniques, artefacts, norms, knowledge
2. search spaces -> the needs, problems and goals societies are trying to solve

I mean it's not even...okay look, let's go full EvoPsych on this one, which we should never do, but playing by the manosphere's own logic, wouldn't like, a gigantic SUV with tons of safety features for all the kids you and the missus had be more desirable than a truck that's 90% bed space?

I believe in cultural evolution. This is how society decides what are desirable traits and which are not. Politicians should be concerned with how they will be spoken of after they die. We can all learn from it and get better.

White-throated Sparrows’ songs are super variable by region, and because males learn their songs, a neighborhood’s songs can change rapidly. It’s likely a local change driven by cultural evolution - just like how human dialects and slang change quickly.
