The Internet and your inner English tea merchant | Taha Yasseri | TEDxThessaloniki

video thumbnail
The Internet is a totally internet phenomenon. In this talk, Dr Taha Yasseri gives answers to burning internet questions. Are users biased like an English tea merchant? Why do we care more about some events and not about others? And for how long do we care? He presents research findings on collective memory on the internet, as well as on the threshold of death toll that attracts our attention and empathy when it comes to social media. Although the interned is constantly criticized as being a threat to our democracy, he reminds us that it is a place of cooperation, a land that has the power to unite us, not divide us.

Το Ίντερνετ και ο Άγγλος έμπορος τσαγιού μέσα σου

Το Ιντερνετ είναι ένα ιντερνετικό φαινόμενο. Σε αυτή την ομιλία, ο Dr. Taha Yasseri δίνει απαντήσεις σε φλέγοντα ερωτήματα του διαδικτύου. Είναι οι χρήστες προκατειλημμένοι όπως ένας Άγγλος έμπορος τσαγιού; Γιατί μας νοιάζει περισσότερο για κάποια γεγονότα και όχι για άλλα; Και για πόσο καιρό μας νοιάζει; Παρουσιάζει ευρήματα από έρευνες σχετικά με τη συλλογική μνήμη στο διαδίκτυο, καθώς και το όριο του αριθμού θανάτων που τραβάει τη προσοχή και τη συμπόνια μας όταν βρισκόμαστε στα κοινωνικά δίκτυα. Παρά την κριτική που ασκείται στο ίδιο το διαδίκτυο, ότι αποτελεί κίνδυνο για τη δημοκρατία, ο Dr. Taha Yasseri μάς υπενθυμίζει ότι το διαδίκτυο είναι ένα μέρος συνεργασίας, ένας τόπος που έχει τη δύναμη να μας ενώνει και όχι να μας χωρίζει.
