À propos de ce contenu audio
We are all participants—willing or not—in the greatest social experiment in human history. In this inaugural episode of The Dangers of the Digital Age, we explore how the rise of the digitally networked environment has radically reshaped what it means to be human. Once a tool for information and communication, the digital world has evolved into the place where we live, move, and have our being. From social media to AI, technology has begun to form our perceptions, appetites, and even our capacity for free will.
This episode traces three key phases of the Digital Age:
- The Information Phase (1990s–2005). The birth of the internet and desktop computing.
- The Social Media Phase (2005–2020). The rise of platforms, smartphones, and algorithmic governance.
- The AI Phase (2020–Present). The dawn of autonomous systems shaping human behavior.
As philosopher Jacques Ellul warned, when technology advances without regard for the human good, “what can be done, will be done.” The question we now face is not simply how to use technology—but how to remain human in its midst.
