In This Interview, Robin Hanson and I Discuss Motives, Human Behavior, and … His book, The Elephant In The Brain: Hidden Motives In Everyday Life How often, we keep our true motives hidden from others That we also keep our true motives hidden from ourselves Modularity The things happening at a conscious as well as an unconscious level The left brain interpreter being like a press secretary Needing to tell a story about our motives Questioning whether or not you know the motives of others That we have multiple motives for doing things Understand others and then assume you’re a lot like them Cynicism and Misanthropy Perspective The evolution to protect ourselves from each other The need to have others like us and think well of us Obliviation What if others couldn’t see what you bought – that their opinion of you wouldn’t change because of what you bought – how would that change what you’d buy? That we pay a lot for variety Proximate and distal causes That evolution designed us to be relatively unaware of our motives – so why is it good to know about them?
