About this listen

Jaron Lanier helped to create virtual reality, so he’s no technophobe. Yet today he wants to spread the word that social media in its current form is harming all of us – from individual mental health all the way up to plurality in politics and healthy competition in business. In an interview following his virtual Novathon appearance, Lanier discusses his ideas for a positive future in social media, arguing that it all starts with changing the business model.
