Pigeons, Humans & The Illusion of Intelligence - Part 2 - BF Skinner & Robert Epstein

In Part 2, Skinner and Epstein push the boundaries of what we consider 'intelligence,' showing how pigeons can be conditioned to behave in ways that resemble human cognitive feats-like problem-solving and even using a memorandum. But as Skinner’s behaviorism asserts, these actions are not evidence of conscious thought-they are simply learned responses, highlighting the illusion of free will and understanding.
This continuation of their experiments dives deeper into the fallacy that intelligence, whether in pigeons or humans, is anything other than a result of conditioning. The mechanics behind these actions are no different from the conditioned behaviors that govern human life.
► Prepare to have the very notion of 'free will' and 'conscious thought' dismantled, as we witness how simple stimuli shape complex behaviors, even in humans.

Funniest part is that it is old people your listening to, haha! These are the people who worked very hard to cage and control you and eventually you emulate. Poor soul got glammed...

Even the most powerful persons on Earth have no free will of their own. In fact US president Biden is a very good example of this, being mildly senile as he is.
