Human Pulse

17- Good, Bad, or Just Different? Trade-offs in a Digital World

Living Well with Technology. Media psychologist Dr. Jerri Lynn Hogg, our first ever guest on Human Pulse, joins us to unpack what it means to live well with technology. Jerri Lynn illustrates how tech “disappears” when it’s seamlessly woven into daily routines—from glancing at an Apple Watch for the weather to teleporting friends to a virtual beach in Second Life. We dive into the unseen costs of constant connectivity, like Zoom fatigue and privacy trade‑offs, and look ahead at generative AI and immersive reality as tools for learning, connection, and creativity. Throughout, Jerri Lynn stresses balance: embrace innovation for its benefits, but don’t lose sight of real‑world human touch.
