In its original formulation, the "Ship of Theseus" paradox concerns a debate over whether or not a ship that has had all of its components replaced one by one would remain the same ship. Is a book in a digital format still a book? How about an Audio Book? Follow us in this interesting conversation about the evolution of media and what it means for our society, our knowledge, and our education. Put your thinking cap on, and enjoy!

What has become of the ideas and the vision of the World Wide Web? Well, many things have changed since "circa 1993", and amongst many good things, a plethora of unexpected consequences came in the same bag. In this episode of redefining society, we talk with our friend Charity Wright about what is the reality of the internet today when it comes to the many ways that social media have been utilized to spread ideologies, misinformation, propaganda, and, more often than not, lately, pure and unalt...

Work is defined as “an activity involving mental or physical effort done to achieve a purpose or result.” Ok, but does it have to suck, being stressful, and burning people out? No! Let’s discuss this. Lately, at least in the cybersecurity and technology industry, talking about burnout has become a common topic. There are talks at conferences, some companies are addressing the issue, and plenty of articles in many newspapers and magazines. It certainly is not a new thing, but why do we talk more ...

Do cities need technology in order to be smart? Can “smart technology” alone turn a dumb city into an intelligent one? The human is still the most crucial piece in the machine — in this case, all the city inhabitants: those who run it and those who live it. In this podcast we talk about the Leading Smart Cities with Trust program. A first-of-its-kind professional certificate, to learn from leaders in government, academia and the private sector how to gain a solid foundation of knowledge for all ...

When you find a piece of news circulating on social media that looks suspicious, a bit weird, or even too good to be true, it would be good to refrain from sharing it. But, unfortunately, that is how misinformation goes around on the internet and how sometimes the consequences on our societies can be quite relevant and dangerous. Sharing and amplifying the messages reach is a powerful way to make positive changes happens in our society, but there is always the other side of the coin — misinforma...

Have you heard any stories of artists struggling to make a living from their artistic passion and skills lately? Have you heard of NFTs? Well, maybe you should listen to us trying to put the two together and see what we come up with. Welcome to another episode that starts with ONE, TWO, THREE… and while the first one was about Web .3, this time, we deliver a good hour of thinking around NFTs and the many opportunities they can bring. In particular, we focus on the music industry, the artists, th...

Why should we return to the office instead of being more productive and happier working from home? Maybe someone likes to work there, meet people, and get out of the house? To each its own, then. Why not? During this podcast, we talk about the many good reasons why we should let people work from home, but as we do so, we also realize that many enjoy the office working lifestyle, and each one should be able to choose what fits their personality the most. The truth is often in the middle, and a hy...

1, 2, 3 … NFT… and WEB .3 For those of you that are still figuring out WEB .2, it may be time to skip ahead and envision an internet where users can regain the ownership of their data — and identity too? Can we really? Let’s start with the basics: what is web .3? In the podcast, Sean joins Marco, and they ask A TON of questions to Connor Borrego, a web3 nerd who wants to help users reclaim ownership of their digital identity. He got us thinking that maybe a better internet is in reach and wonder...

Influencers help brands to sell products by creating content on social media — the concept is certainly not new. How about virtual ones? It depends on what we assume "virtual" means because, in the advertising field, it is not new either. The technology makes this different, but humans are still in the machine. The point is that testimonials have been around since the beginning of advertising, as such virtual ones. You can think of celebrities, authorities in the field, fictional characters, and...

Even if you want to refuse to look up or you believe the Earth is flat, it doesn’t change the truth about Space Exploration: it has an impressive track record of improving our life here on the ground. So many aspects of our well-being, our security, and the growth of humanity as a whole depend on it. In this podcast, we are joined again by our long-time friend Steve Luczynski from the Aerospace Village and our new friend Renee Wynn, former CIO at NASA. The stories they shared with us kept us glu...

Some say that nobody wants war, and yet here we are. They are different because technology has changed, but they still suck. Is there a clear distinction between cyber and kinetic warfare? Does it even matter? What can we learn about it from this war in Ukraine? Despite the distinction between different kinds of war for headlines and panel conversation, war is war. Under that horrible word, you can line up as many strategies, tools, and methodologies as you like, but once something is used as a ...

Cryptography is now everywhere in the online world; but how do we know that it’s doing its job properly? Security of “messaging systems” like WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, etc. How do they work? What security do they offer? How do we know they're any good? And those are just a few questions for today's reality where we tend to trust that the cryptographic algorithms in user are fairly resilient. What Impact will quantum computing have on cryptography in the future; a reality we must prepare for si...

Positive cultural and societal changes do not happen in a day, but they need to start somewhere, and indeed they do not happen by magic. Education is a key driver that can promote, facilitate, and speed up such changes. Contact of different societies, technological evolution, and geographical and ecological factors can initiate societal changes that can take quite some time. Still, sometimes we need to improve our communities faster, which is when movements and organizations can speed up the pac...

The Metaverse, VR, XR, and much of the social technology we are developing today can and should be used for good. We have an ample opportunity to use it for good or look back one day and regret we didn’t. In this conversation, we spoke about what is the driving force that is leading the commercialization of VR, XR, and the Metaverse, but also all the paths we could take to create a virtual world that doesn’t have to carry the bias we are trying to fight in the one where we live our daily life, f...
