Why You Can't Stop Scrolling (Your Brain Is Still Hunting)

You told yourself one more minute. Twenty minutes later, you can't remember a single thing you watched. But the real answer is far stranger than weak willpower. In this video, you travel back 200,000 years to the African savanna and discover why your brain treats your phone like a forest full of berry bushes. You'll meet the scientists behind the story: Eric Charnov and his rule for when to leave a patch, Wolfram Schultz and his dopamine monkeys, Kent Berridge and the split between wanting and liking, and B. F. Skinner and his pigeons. You'll see why the infinite scroll removed the one signal that once told your ancestors it was time to move on. And you'll learn why the problem was never a flaw in your character.
