À propos de cet audio

 Disconnected shines a light on the secrets and the impact that social media and technology is having on our society, culture, politics, human interactions, and behaviour. My name is Jag Sharma - and I’ve spent the last 12 years creating, developing and executing social media strategies for a number of global brands across a variety of industries, and have witnessed first-hand the impact that algorithms, behaviour modification, negative feedback loops, ad targeting, and mass data collection have had on shaping our world in a new direction. This podcast is all about making you aware - giving you the insight, a look behind the giant tech curtain - and allowing you to make your own fully-informed decisions on how you strategically play (or don’t play) their game. This is not about advocating for going dark or deleting your accounts, this is about looking under the hood and getting more informed about what’s really happening to us on a societal level as result of our tech driven lives. I’ll be producing a new episode regularly, so be sure to subscribe to receive a notification for a new release - you can also follow me on either Instagram (@jagsharma) or add me on LinkedIn, where I’ll be conducting debates and social experiments from the discussions within the episodes. I’d love for you to join the conversation and share your thoughts and opinions on how social media and technology is influencing our lives.© 2025 Disconnected Marketing Marketing et ventes Réussite personnelle Sciences sociales Économie

    What’re your plans for 10,000 years’ time?

    Short of finding a cure for aging, Jeff Bezos has made his plans very clear with the 10,000 year clock, while Elon seems to be creating a new business every 10,000 minutes…

    Take a journey into the future with us on Disconnected, as we break down Microsoft’s new competitor ‘Macrohard’, Bezos’ latest art project, and the fallout from the streaming wars…

    This episode of Disconnected covers:

    • Jeff Bezos’ 10,000 Year Clock, and whether it’s a symbol of long-term thinking or a glorified art project
    • Elon Musk’s latest foray into AI-created software with ‘MacroHard’
    • The streaming wars, subscription fatigue, and whether the golden age of streaming will ever return

    When AI models become the new norm, who writes our beauty standards?

    An advert for Guess in Vogue has prompted a deeper look at how exactly it’s been made, and what it means for the world of fashion and beyond from our very own Jen, Jason, Matt and Jag.

    This episode of Disconnected covers:

    • The ethics of AI models, beauty standards, job displacement, and mental health risks
    • How people are reacting to (and circumventing) the UK's Online Safety Act
    • Brazilian football's heavy reliance on gambling
    • ChatGPT's new study mode representing a positive application of AI
