Top Tech Voices Podcast S2 E1: Mental Health & Technology

JoRatcliffe
JoRatcliffe 8 days ago

It’s time for the first episode of the Top Tech Voices podcast and Dr Jack Lewis shares how technology affects our minds, and how we can use technologies – including AI and virtual reality – to strengthen our minds and improve our lives.

Get comfortable, make a hot drink, and tune in for a conversation covering:

  • Creating a ‘Columbo moment’ when you are pitching something
  • How your smartphone can affect you just by being in your general area or in your peripheral vision
  • Why watching a TV show without multitasking is better for your brain
  • How to use AI as a constructively critical partner to enhance your thinking and avoiding ‘cognitive miserliness’

    Dr. Lewis mentioning how the brain loves unexpected rewards really clicked for me. I use the Columbo 'just one more thing' trick on myself to extend my study sessions by 2-minute increments. It feel like…

    This was a great episode! I really liked the parts about how our brains work. Since Dr. Jack mentioned specific studies and books, it would be amazing if you could list those references in the video description…

    This episode really made me think. The phrase “use it or lose it” struck a chord with me – I had no idea how much my phone was impacting my brain, and I really liked the concept of VR and how it can help us understand each other better. I’m now attempting to use my phone less and be more present. BlushNo mobile phones

    Its also amazing the pressure others put on a person to keep that phone attached to their body like a limb. Folks expect immediate response to phone or text.

    From 8 pm to 8am my phone is in my mancave regardless where I am, unless Im out of the house.

    This is it exactly. 'Like a limb' is the perfect way to describe that feeling of social obligation.
