In this episode, Xavier Bonilla has a dialogue with Adam Bulley about foresight and its evolutionary history. They define what foresight is and how it is different from prospective memory. They discuss how much executive functioning is involved, episodic foresight, abstraction, and theory of mind. They talk about the evolutionary history of foresight, cultural evolution, human development, and predictive models and perception. They also talk about brain systems involved with foresight, new technology, social dynamics, clock time, and many more topics. Adam Bulley is a postdoctoral fellow at the Brain and Mind Centre and School of Psychology, The University of Sydney and the Department of Psychology at Harvard University. His primary research areas are in the evolution, mechanism, and psychology of imagination, foresight, and decision-making. He is the co-author (with Thomas Suddendorf & Jon Redshaw) of the book, The Invention of Tomorrow: A Natural History of Foresight. You can find his research here.
