Tim Urban is the writer behind Wait But Why, one of the most popular blogs on the internet, known for making complex topics (AI, procrastination, the Fermi Paradox, the future of humanity) accessible and deeply engaging. His book "What's Our Problem?" examines how the decline in collective thinking quality threatens democratic society. He's currently deep in a new long-form writing project exploring the full arc of everything.
