This episode of Disconnected covers:

  • The new Twitter/X feature posing security issues

  • Chatbots creating company policies that are legally binding

  • A shocking influencer story proving how careful we need to be in supporting online personalities

  • Whether the rise of AI is bringing the 4 day work week closer

Episode Highlights:

“From what I understand, anybody on X already has enabled a setting that allows people to call them, so by having that setting already on, your caller can see where you are, and they can see the town, city or postcode.” - 5:15 - Jen Campbell 

“What I find interesting about the Air Canada case is that Air Canada's defence was that they can't be held liable for anything promised by one of its agents, and then they count the chatbot as one of its agents.” - 11:45 - Jag Sharma

“This story is obviously horrific in many ways, but it really serves as a caution about who you’re following and what you’re following them for.” - 15:55 - Jen Campbell 

“You see a lot of these influencers getting massive followings, but now there's a rise in influencers who have to combat misinformation from other influencers.” - 18:25 - Jason Kapadia

“When does a four day work week turn into three, then two… at what point are we not needed any more?” - 22:50 - Jason Kapadia
