Show Notes
Social media + persuasive technologies exploit our brain's vulnerabilities to ensure we stay engaged with their apps.
- Creating a sense of urgency,
- Encouraging constant seeking,
- Comparing ourselves to others,
- Engaging with negative content,
- Isolating us in bubbles.
To combat this, slow the fuck down.
The Khan Academy offers free courses and today I sped through their lesson on "persuasive technology" and how we can push back against it, to reclaim what is ours.
