ApeBrains

by ApeBrains

I think it would be healthy for humans to remind themselves every now and then that we are descended from the ape and this fact could give us some calm into the chaos of everyday life. Empathise the fact that you are an animal!It’s called ApeBrains because we are just a bunch of apes trying to figure out the same thing as everyone else and managing life as we are waiting for death. You are welcome to join me, Silja, in casual and sometimes controversial conversations about life that involves me picking on human behaviour, blessing technology and AI, and laughing at whatever life throws.
