This document provides an agenda and overview for a TransTech learning pod discussion on the implications of computer technology and human potential. The agenda includes introductions, watching a trailer for the documentary "The Social Dilemma", a discussion on how technology impacts human behavior and perception, and how the Transtech community can address these issues. The host will share their perspectives on how technology has affected them personally and the questions that drive their work focusing on human consciousness and well-being with technology. Participants will then have a dialogue on their thoughts and experiences with technology and how to safeguard real-world connections from excessive screen time.

8. My Why (2)
The main questions that drive me are:
'who am I?'
'what does it mean to be Human?'
'what am I truly capable of?'
'what is this reality I've ended up in?'
'what role does computer technology play
in all of this?'
9. #thesocialdilemma
So what stood out for me is:
'It's the gradual slight, imperceptible change
in your own behavior and perception
(that is the product).
It changes what you do, what you think,
what you believe and who you are.'
That we're dealing with markets that trade
in Human Future, offering predictions for
advertisers of what we will do/be/think in the
future'
Reality Hacking: you believe the reality you
are being presented (by super computers)
10. Where is our shared reality
when online connection
has become primary?
12. Dialogue
.,
1. How do you feel about this?
2. Are we dealing with an existential threat?
3. What part can the Transtech community play in
all of this?
All our tech seems to increasingly revolve around our smart phones
4. How do you personally deal with this?
E.g. handling social media, managing your screen and phone
time, safeguarding realtime connection?
Are you staring at your screen or are you living
your life out in the world?
