    "individual affective baselines [on Facebook] are concentrated around a slightly positive valence and moderate arousal point."

    Of course, we can use our knowledge to make things better. I discuss “informational inequality” which, I think, is a real problem. 4/7

    Despite that, I believe that a clear picture emerges, for which the negative effects of our daily interactions with digital media may have been overestimated, and I do think that, for what we know now, there are many positive effects that we just take for granted. 3/7

    My hypothesis is that cumulation is domain-dependent, i.e. it works differently depending on the material that can be accumulated and on the ways in which information is transferred. What a visitor from 10,000 years ago would find today mind-blowing? 3/7

    I explore the idea of cumulative culture: cultural traits appear to increase in number (accumulation), effectiveness (improvement) and they are improved based upon previous cultural innovations (ratcheting) 2/7

    Online transmission, however, does potentially increase fidelity. I discuss how this differs from the usual experiments in cultural evolution, where the transmitted material needs to be remembered and reproduced (think the telephone game). 7/8

    Digital transmission, in particular, provides many of what I call “fidelity amplifiers”, it is cheap, fast, very precise, provides mechanisms of repairs, and facilitate the transmission of tacit knowledge with video, comments, etc. 5/8
