Book in progress · Memes vs. Genes
Ideas are now selected by virality, not truth.
For most of history a bad idea died with the people who held it. Today it can spread for years without costing anyone anything. The book follows how ideas came to evolve faster than genes, and what that means for truth, democracy and our survival.
Behind this text: teal ideas copy slowly, signal ideas copy fast. Move your pointer; attention makes them spread.
Let’s talk about AI in your organization.
