- Self-Improvement
Today's episode of The Social Work Journal relates technology to emotions and behaviors. Deltom dives deep into the different types of commonly used algorithms and how they ironically are parallel to the way our cognition regulates our impulses. Additionally, Deltom explores what we see on the internet and how it directly impacts our self-esteem as well as the standards we set for ourselves. Join the journey of self-discovery as this episode employs us to investigate how much of the virtual world is real.

Ouotes by Deltom:
"That's what artificial intelligence is all about. It's about predicting your future behavior, with past behavior."
"Because 'greedy algorithm' is not always reliable in decision making, they use dynamic programming."
"Have you every found yourself constantly checking emails and wondered why? For some reason, I get this high whenever I delete emails. I've asked myself, "why" I don't just sit down and take the time to unsubscribe."
