How are social media algorithms shaping what it means to be a "good man"? 📱
On this episode of Daddies Podcast (@daddiespodcastau), Rob Stott (@stottstagram) and Marcus Hurley (@marcusjameshurley) are joined by journalist and TV presenter Marc Fennell (@marcfennell) to break down the digital pressures facing young men today.
Following the release of his ABC documentary series 'The State of Man', Marc shares what happened during his burner-phone experiments, how quickly algorithms push toxic content to young boys, and why unrealistic body standards are shifting the definition of normal. Plus, the team tackles screen-time lockboxes, Roblox hacking, and the challenges of modern parenting.

Years ago, when I came across the term, "blackbirding", it sounded like a lovely term for capturing birdsong in the wild. Then I read on.

Look what was suggested on my Audible algorithm. This was another brilliant audio program by @MarcFennell The deep fakes that exist and the lack of emotional resilience of people really concerns me. A chapter on a School Principal who was targeted by AI was very interesting.
I went to MIT and tried mind control technology. Sort of.
More accurately, I used my brain to control a computer. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. Some of the world’s biggest tech companies are racing to develop brain-computer interfaces like this.
What could possibly go wrong?

Yes, artificial intelligence can read signals from your brain.
With a brain-computer interface, certain AI tools can decode brain activity and turn a person’s attempted speech into actual words.
I met Casey Harrell, who has ALS and uses this technology to communicate - even speaking in a version of his own voice.
And this is just the beginning. Researchers are developing increasingly powerful ways for AI to interpret brain signals, while a whole new generation of AI wearables and smart glasses is bringing artificial intelligence closer to our bodies than ever before.
So what happens when AI doesn’t just answer our thoughts - but starts to understand them?

I cannot recommend tonight's story on #StufftheBritishStole more highly. A fascinating watch about a meteor "sold" to London from the new state of Victoria, away from #FirstNations who had it in lore. Is this meteor our Elgin Marbles? @britishmuseum

"What people don't know is that he stole from us."
