[Sneak Peek] Is Social Media Breaking Our Kids? ft. Steve Joordens
Kids are losing the ability to talk face-to-face — and social media may be the reason.
Steve Joordens explains how phones, AI, dopamine, and anxiety are reshaping a generation.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why children under 16 are at the centre of new social media regulations
• How addictive social media platforms use random rewards and dopamine loops
• Why smartphones, texting, and social media may be fuelling social anxiety in young people
• How the loss of face-to-face communication is showing up in universities, job fairs, and workplaces
• Why AI may be used to rebuild conversation skills damaged by technology
• The growing concern around AI friends, loneliness, shallow relationships, and human connection
• How social anxiety could affect dating, marriage, birth rates, and the future of society
