How does it shine light on the current lawsuits over large language models and whether they produce anything fundamentally new... or are simply remixing the old? How do the arts expose something important about what's happening in the human brain? What do we know about the cultural evolution of ideas?

Join Eagleman and his guest, composer Anthony Brandt, as they uncover the surprises about creativity.
