Episode description

What does it mean to be human in this new world? How can we redefine the role of humans in a world of machines? Digital sociologist Lisa Talia Moretti worked with WNDYR on a research project about the role of humans in the future. Here, she recaps this work and its relevance in todays environment. She explains which 10 specific skills we must develop to remain relevant.

Lisa has recently been named one of the top 100 people in the UK who is changing the digital and internet industries for good in the field of Tech Ethics. This has lead to her being appointed as the Resident Digital Sociologist for the Ministry of Justice, UK. She speaks about the need for governments to have a "Department of Tech”, as well as how companies need to recognize and develop "HQ" (Human Quotient) and other soft skills in their employees. Finally she speaks passionately about Ethics—what it is and how to implement it in our lives. It’s about deciding how we want to live our lives.
