The UNI PROB project investigates whether cognitive similarities between humans and birds, particularly kea parrots, arise from convergent evolution or shared ancestry. By analyzing probabilistic reasoning and cognitive biases, it aims to determine if these traits are universally adaptive features of intelligence acros…
Is the human mind an evolutionary one-off?
Or does it reflect a ‘universal mind’ in which similar cognitive mechanisms repeatedly evolve via convergent evolution?
Avian cognition offers a powerful model system for answering this fundamental question about the nature of our mind, because birds last shared a common ancestor with humans 312 million years ago and have evolved brains with a very different structure.
