1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda Jamn. I saw something the other day.

2
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: I saw a woman talking about something to do with

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: social media, and it was such an eye opener. We

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: all know that our social media feeds are being curated.

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: I think we all know that now we're in an algorithm.

6
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,599
Speaker 1: If you follow puppy Instagram, you're going to get a

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 1: whole lot of dog stuff. You're going to a whole lot

8
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: of blah blah blah. If you're following politics, you're going

9
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:25,959
Speaker 1: to get that. If you'reollowing influences, you're going to get that.

10
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 1: But what about the comments. This woman said that she

11
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: was watching a reel where a girl was saying, Hey,

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: my boyfriend's half an hour late. I'm a little bit annoyed.

13
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: He's a new boyfriend. I'm a little bit annoyed. And

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: this girl was giving half hour updates to he's still

15
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,319
Speaker 1: not here, still not here. Two hours later I think

16
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 1: he turned up. And so she had updated this thing

17
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,279
Speaker 1: saying I've waited two hours finally he's here. All the comments,

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: all the comments at the top of her feed, this

19
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: girl's feeds, she watched the reel and the comments were

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: how rude, that's terrible. How disrespectful, red flag, etc. Her

21
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: boyfriend watched the same reel at the same time, and

22
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: she looked at the comments that were at the top

23
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: of his feed, and the comments were she needs to

24
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,960
Speaker 1: get a life. Hey bro, you're entitled to do what

25
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: you want, blah blah blah. So she presumably got the

26
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: female comments, he got the male skewed comments, and it's

27
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: a very interesting thing to discuss because that's curious.

28
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: So they're sitting next to each other.

29
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: And she looked at it, and she scrolled down right

30
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: to all the comments. The ones that were at the

31
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: top of his feed didn't even appear on hers, and

32
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: vice versa. So this is kind of alarming in how

33
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: you view the world and how young people view the world,

34
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: because there's the topic, and yes, we're being fed different

35
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: subjects to our algorithms, but the context for how we

36
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: respond to them is also being manipulated. So how we

37
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: often look at the comments to say, you know, what

38
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: are people's opinions on this? You're not getting You're not

39
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: getting any perspective. You're getting a very narrow curated perspective

40
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: that fits what your algorithm thinks you are. I said

41
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: this before, didn't I that my nephew, who's in his

42
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: mid thirties, a really smart, well read young guy from Melbourne.

43
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: He decided to go off social media because, he said,

44
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: an algorithm has decided that because he's white, presumably heterosexual,

45
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,959
Speaker 1: which he is, but they've made those assumptions about him. Therefore,

46
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: he's being fed a whole lot of Joe Rogan, a

47
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: whole lot of Andrew Tait, a whole lot of homophobic,

48
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: relatively racist, anti female, anti trans stuff. And he said,

49
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this anymore. And a whole

50
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: lot of people wouldn't even know they're being fed a

51
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: certain skew of the world. But then to have your

52
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: comments skewed as well, as you say, the perspective with

53
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: which you view, the lens with which you view the information,

54
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: How is everyone feeling about this? How are we feeling people?

55
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: That's all being skewed as well.

56
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: Also, it could be bots that make the comments. That's

57
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 2: another thing. Reggie Bird, who I follow on Instagram, she

58
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 2: called out this guy that had trash talked her on

59
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 2: her Instagram feed and I looked into it. The guy

60
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: has no profile picture, no followers. I'm thinking that he's

61
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: a bot.

62
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: Why would a bot target her.

63
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: I don't know. I see a lot of women get

64
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: targeted by men, Aaron Molin for example. And I tell

65
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: you what, none of these guys target me because I'll

66
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: just call him out. But this guy that was targeting

67
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 2: Reggie Bert, his name is David Elliott. He said some

68
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: terrible things about Reggie, and I wrote back, I said, well,

69
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 2: I think I think this guy's a bot. I don't

70
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 2: think he even exists. And if he exists, this flog

71
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: has done less in his life than you've done in

72
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes. Because he was called around about it, I

73
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: thought you were dead. I thought you had your fifteen

74
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:47,560
Speaker 2: minutes of favor.

75
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: He would say that stuff. But you know what, it's

76
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 1: also those kind of bots change and sway life. I

77
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 1: had a podcast recently there was talking about how Saudi

78
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: Arabia are trying to infl trait the world through sport

79
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: and also now through arts and music festivals and film festivals.

80
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: And Johnny Depp, they're saying, has befriended the head guy

81
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 1: in Saudi Arabia who was responsible allegedly for the chopping

82
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 1: up of that journalist Shock. Yeah, And so Johnny Depp

83
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: has befriended this billionaire and so he wants Johnny to

84
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 1: be his mate, and then a whole lot of bots

85
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: targeted Amber heard a whole lot of bots, and it's

86
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 1: assumed and allegedly thought that Saudi Arabian billionaire goes, let's

87
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: save our mate. So this changes the world.

88
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 2: We should do an experiment. We should get say, for example,

89
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 2: something that we've done on the radio that's man woman

90
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 2: divide something to man woman. Okay, what about that time

91
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 2: I said I was putting carpet around the garage walk because.

92
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 1: We got a new because you didn't trust your wife

93
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: to park.

94
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: See as soon as you say words like trust, it's

95
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 2: about what I'm doing is protecting the car.

96
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: So you're suggesting we shouldn't have said it out loud.

97
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: Don't tell anyone the exp We'll just do it and

98
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens.

99
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 2: We'll get digital Jenna to post that original discussion and

100
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,239
Speaker 2: see what happens.

101
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: Yeah that he said, she said stuff because the perspective

102
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: is being skewed.

103
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, right on,
