The contemporary world is loaded with technology from the moment we wake up, to the moment we close our eyes, staring at the screen on the bed. Technology has turned from a luxury into a necessity in our lives. Thus to spread awareness, we are organizing a talk on the present day's state-of-the-art technology and its effect on us.

The talk intends to trigger a thought process and discussion on the current state of technology. We would glance through different issues that are coming up ahead of us with the fast-paced technology, namely attention economy, tech addictions, digital privacy, digital laws, and liberties. The talk will dig deep into the psychological factors that are involved when we use social media and which in a way keep us coming back to the social media and get us hooked.
