Stanley Milgram’s 1961 obedience studies. |
Tomer Ullman is head of Harvard’s Computation, Cognition, and Development lab. His interest in AI led him to stage Lego recreations of famous psych experiments.
Many years ago, as a Psychology major, I studied the Milgrim experiment (image above) which explored the willingness of participants to follow the orders of authorities when those orders conflict with the individual's moral judgment. I never expected to see it rendered in Lego. But here we are.
Too bad the Peter Venkman ESP Experiment was not rendered in Lego.
ReplyDeleteThat would have been perfect.
