📌 Key Topics:

🔍 Understanding the Digital Village: how our digital lives mimic small-town dynamics, where everything we do is “seen”—but by algorithms instead of neighbors.

💡 The Influence of Big Data on Behavior: Discover how algorithms use your online behavior to shape everything from ads you see to your decision-making.

❤️ Data's Potential for Mental Health: Learn how psychological targeting could improve well-being by identifying those in need of support and tailoring mental health resources.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Sandra Matz, Associate Professor of Business at Columbia Business School, to explore her research on how our online activities reveal intimate aspects of our personality and behavior. Her upcoming book, MindMasters, dives into the science of predicting and influencing human behavior through data. In this episode, Dr. Matz shares insights on both the positive and nefarious aspects of big data, practical ways to manage your digital footprint, and the potential for AI to improve mental health.
