When our sense of self has fractured into a dozen different social network platforms, when sex is something that requires logging in and a password, when we are competing for our lives with robots for jobs and dark thoughts and forces have pervaded, syndicated and colonized cyberspace, we might wish we'd paid more attention as we set out on this journey into The First Quarter Of The 21st Century.
Ever thought about how your smartphone might be reshaping your brain? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Whole Body Mental Health Radio', Dr. Jose Calderon-Abbo chats with Dr. Mary Aiken, a forensic cyberpsychologist with a fascinating focus on the intersection of human behavior and technology. Dr. Aiken, who has advised organizations from INTERPOL to the FBI, dives into the seductive design of our gadgets and how they can lead to addiction.
She paints a vivid picture of a world where our identities are fragmented across social media platforms and where even our jobs might be at risk due to advancing robotics. Dr. Aiken also tackles serious issues like cyberbullying, health anxiety from endless online searches, and the hyper-sexualization facilitated by technology.
With her extensive background and engaging storytelling, she raises important questions about who should regulate the digital world and how we can protect ourselves and our children from its darker sides. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the profound ways technology is shaping our lives.
