The idea that we only use 10% of our brain is a complete falsehood from the very beginning. We need more research before I think we can finally say we do or we don't have free will. It's just how the brain works. And we're always in this kind of reciprocal interaction with what was going on in the world around us.
Neil deGrasse Tyson investigates free will, morality, meditation, psychedelic experiences, artificial intelligence, and more alongside neuroscientist and author Sam Harris, comic co-host Godfrey, neurotheologist Andrew Newberg, and neuroscientist Robert Wright. You have no choice but to listen.
