What happens when we let technology control our minds? – Introduction to “The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind”
In this episode, we talk about my new book, The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind, which touches on some of today’s most fundamental problems—the influence of technology on the human brain and our society. I discuss key ideas from the book, where I explore how the rapid growth of digital technology, especially social media, is weakening our brain’s natural abilities. We delve into the concept of brain devolution, showing how our increasing reliance on technology is causing us to lose mental power and diminishing our cognitive functions.
The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind is more than just a warning about the negative effects of technology. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand where we are headed as a civilization and how we can prevent ourselves from reaching the brink of collapse.
In the book, I hope to spark a sense of hope for a new beginning – If we take the time to reflect on our relationship with technology and ourselves.
