In this episode of the Git Hip Cast, we get together to discuss the singularity, is it here, what is our trajectory, and what is the realized and unrealized impacts of social media on society and mental health.
In preparation for this conversation, all participants in this discussion screened the following two films:
1. The Social Dilemma (https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224)
2. My Octopus Teacher (https://www.netflix.com/title/81045007)
n the episode, I mention a popular quote “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic,” which is referenced in the “The Social Dilemma.” This quote is the 3rd law of Clarke’s three laws and while researching and preparing for the episode I came across a great link article. (http://lab.cccb.org/en/arthur-c-clarke-any-sufficiently-advanced-technology-is-indistinguishable-from-magic/)
There is an infographic at the end of the article that is really interesting.
