E142| Are We Running Out Of Time as a Species? | Dave Snowden

Anthrocomplexity foregrounds human embeddedness, symbolic language, and the capacity for meta-reflection, shifting focus from purely mathematical models to the landscape and substrate of human interactions.

Q: What do you actually mean when you say you're human?
