What happens when our entire information environment is designed to prioritise engagement over truth?

Noz Urbina, founder of Urbina Consulting and expert in content design and information systems, launches a new podcast exploring the "Truth Collapse" - the AI meta crisis undermining our ability to have productive conversations about everything from climate change to politics.

In the first episode, he examines how algorithms have been reshaping our information landscape for decades and why they're creating increasingly anxious, polarised societies. What you'll learn: 

  • How truth is established in societies and why algorithms are reversing this process
  • Why engagement-driven media promotes emotionally charged content over factual information
  • How algorithms have been shaping our information landscape for over 20 years
  • The three levels where truth collapse affects us: personal, interpersonal, and societal
  • Practical approaches to managing information overload and algorithm influence
  • How the "anxious generation" is being affected by constant digital content exposure
  • Why institutions like media and government are struggling in the engagement economy.
