We often think of humans as the most intelligent organisms on the planet. Evolution, we think, has equipped us to make good decisions even in difficult or challenging conditions. At the same time, we lament our species' tendency to over-exploit our environment to the point of self-destruction.

Join Andre Costopoulos (Computational Archaeology, Laboratory Anthropology Department) as he discusses his team's latest results, which suggest that humans may in fact have evolved to have a very limited capacity to decide what is good for them. He will try to reconcile these results with what we think it means to be human.
