In this talk, digital expert Jaron Lanier explores ideas from Norbert Wiener, a trailblazer in computer science. 🖥️ Wiener wrote a book in the 1950s, "The Human Use of Human Beings," predicting a future where computers track and influence our behavior. 📘

Lanier discusses how Wiener's 'thought experiment' has become our reality: a world where our devices constantly watch us and shape our actions. 🌐 He points out the irony in Wiener's belief that such a future was impossible, yet here we are. 😅

Lanier emphasizes the need to understand and change this digital environment for our society's health and future. 🌍
