On this episode of The Born Primitive Podcast, we sit down with Professor Joel Pearson: Australian psychologist, neuroscientist, and keynote speaker. A professor at the University of New South Wales, Joel is renowned for his research on perception, decision-making, and mental imagery, including aphantasia, the inability to visualize mental images.

As the author of The Intuition Toolkit, he explores the science behind intuition as a measurable phenomenon rather than just a gut feeling. He’s also the founder of The Future Minds Lab, an innovative research hub blending psychology, neuroscience, data science, and design.

Currently, Joel is focused on the AI revolution, leading cutting-edge projects like Agile Science, Future Minds Lab, and Mind X, which investigate the future of human cognition. Tune in for a fascinating conversation on the mind, intuition, and the future of artificial intelligence.
