It’s World Philosophy Day - a time to pause and ask a bigger question:

How is the digital age reshaping what it means to be human? 💡🧭
In my new video, I explore how algorithms, AI and digital systems influence our minds, choices, identities and culture.

I did not know that. Thank you for sharing, really interesting, and that she credited as a muse by a number of writers. We need to start putting women like her back into history!

That’s right! Good leaders listen to thinkers, but good leaders should also be thinkers!

Today in 399 BC, Socrates was sentenced to death for encouraging people to think. Why? Authoritarian regimes thrive with uneducated population lacking critical thinking skills. Authoritarians target academia, media, educated and then women, essentially all that they wish to prevent or control.

…… comms professionals write the content and they instruct / collaborate with AI to complete, finesse or boost. They then check, edit and finalize.

“AI cannot replicate the human qualities of creativity, empathy and critical thinking that are essential for writing.” - Google Gemini AI

Ah that’s not true. It’s the opposite. In each and every role, there are the boring elements that don’t challenge you. AI can do those parts. The best results, if you need speed and volume is to mix human skill with AI. Our comms team (writers) love it, because they get more done and reduce boredom.

Survival is about finding ways to ride the crest of the waves, while keeping a firm
footing in the natural world, human creativity and empathy.

2- Comms professionals and writers are still valued, but it’s vital to rethink & respond to change. I’ve also had to do so as an author. 75% time-saving on own writing time frees up time for business. Management, instructing and monitoring AI are key skills of the future, alongside human skills.

1- Sorry about your friend My advice would be to reframe her role as a comms officer or consultant. That way she can write draft content, use AI to accelerate and enhance, then command and finesse the final copy. It will take 25% of the time, freeing up working for higher volume.

Algorithms hold secrets, so we won’t always be privy to them. However, AI certainly poses some discriminatory issues, and there’s a lack of human intervention. Lowering IT salaries, customer service staff cuts… the list goes on. More thoughts here: m.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Sure, through digital and technology governance. Both organizations set their own rules and policies. The EU has strong regulations, although some of the ingredients are are a strict and unnecessary hindrance for businesses, particularly the smaller ones. So there does need to be a balance.

Thank you for sharing this interesting article. Some concerning insights, that will provoke further response. Humanity needs to ensure digital and technology serve us rather than dictate the terms.
