Today, we’re diving into the mind of Tristan Harris, TIME Magazine’s 100 “Next Leaders Shaping the Future,” creator of the wildly successful documentary The Social Dilemma and The AI Dilemma, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, and co-host of the podcast Your Undivided Attention.
Behind the Metaverse and Virtual Reality's fun and playful facade is something far more serious and sinister is happening. Tristan Harris is the original whistleblower on Big Tech using persuasive technology, brain hijacking, and reducing humans to monetized units of attention.
Tristan joined TDW to talk about the Metaverse, toxic business models, attention as a superpower, the rise of virtualized relationships (love/friendships/porn), and how Web3 has the potential to change the game by focusing on INtention vs. attention while incentivizing the community to improve society, democracy and humanity.
Just because we live in the age of information doesn’t mean that we’re actually learning.
Tune in now for a dose of powerful wisdom from the one and only Tristan Harris!
