In today’s episode, you will hear a big talk from Jane Newman, an amazing speaker and alum of The Big Talk Academy Mastery. You may remember her from Episode 716, which dropped in December, where we explored the hidden costs of AI.

Jane is an international speaker, entrepreneur, and coach. She writes and speaks on the urgent necessity of retaining our humanity in a techno-centric world.

Based in Seoul, South Korea, Jane travels internationally, working with global thought leaders on reimagining AI and technology. Her message to live joyfully offers a necessary panacea to lives driven by efficiency and productivity.

In her thought-provoking big talk, “Re-humanising: Reclaiming our Humanity in a Techno-centric World,” she explores:

• Why technology has become an insidious colonizing force and how the system discriminates against those who don’t fit digital molds
• The reason burnout and tech overwhelm aren’t personal failings
• The importance of real human connection and community in reclaiming our humanity
• How we can push back against tech companies and demand human-first design
