The Fourth Industrial Revolution: Ethical Tech and Social Media's Impact
We are both of this earth and of nature, and yet we spend so much time in the digital cloud, communicating and connecting with one another in different ways: through content, through conversations. It's human nature to need and want connection. That is a world I wish to live in and I get the sense from others that they're feeling a very similar way.
Imagine a world where technology, artificial intelligence, and biology blend seamlessly. Katie Brockhurst, known as the Social Media Angel, kicks off her podcast 'Social Media For A New Age' by diving into this very topic. She introduces us to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a transformative era where our digital actions ripple through the fabric of society. But what does this mean for you and me?
Katie paints a vivid picture of how our social media habits shape not just our lives but the world around us. She challenges us to reflect on whether we are using technology or if it’s using us. With a gentle yet compelling tone, she emphasizes the importance of ethical tech use and highlights a growing movement away from giants like Facebook towards platforms like Clubhouse and Signal, which prioritize privacy and meaningful connections.
Katie believes social media mirrors our individual and collective selves, urging us to be mindful of its impact on our spirits and souls. Feeling overwhelmed by the digital world? This episode offers insights and practical advice on managing your relationship with big tech, advocating for a future where our online interactions are grounded in ethics and authenticity.
