Today, how a weight loss drug helped Eli Lilly make history. Then how Google went from afterthought to alpha in the AI race. It's Monday, November 24. Let's ride. Good morning, and welcome back to the week, a short week for Thanksgiving. Random acts of kindness, holding the door for someone, leaving a kind note on a stranger's car, they give you this warm fuzzy feeling. But what drives people to do them? According to new research, Batman. Psychologists in Milan ran an experiment on the city's subway systems to study prosocial behavior or the act of helping others.

But in reality, it just shows the power of introducing something weird into people's daily lives. If you jolt people from their routines, they will engage in more prosocial behavior where you're more likely to help those around you due to the presence of an unexpected event. Case in point, forty four percent of people who offered their seats didn't even notice Batman was there, showing it can often just be a subconscious thing. However, I do wanna give Batman some credit. People associate superheroes with things like gender roles and chivalrous help, so gotta give some credit to the dark knight where credit is due.
