Variable Minds intersects science, tech, art, and creativity. Hear from experts on cognition in humans, nonhumans and AI. Dive into the hard problem of consciousness and movements to hybridize with technology: transhumanism and the extended mind thesis (EMT).

This channel also explores the artistic mind, unique artistic expression, and the challenges to intelligent and creative anthropocentrism in the wake of generative art, large language models, and exponential technology. At the core of this channel is a commitment to continual learning, holistic thinking (intelligent holism) and the joy of lifelong learning.

I'm Andréa Morris, an interdisciplinary researcher and science and tech journalist contributing 80+ stories to Forbes.com and a member of National Association of Science Writers. My passion is understanding creative intuition, consciousness and intelligence and all its complexity and whatever form it takes.
