About the session

We live in a civilisation of endless stimulation and ever less nourishment. Screens, feeds and now AI companions compete for the one thing that leads to everything: our senses. Drawing on his new book 'Senseless - AI & the fight for the free mind', physician and bestselling author Imran Rashid shows how commercial technology has colonized the channels through which we feel, focus and connect, and why the answer is not more willpower but better design and responsible regulation. A talk about what we lose when everything becomes effortless, and how to take it back.
