Digital detox - How to stay human in a digitally connected world
In this keynote talk Colin Corby explores 'how to stay human in a digitally connected world'. He poses the question 'What does it feel like to be you?', explores the future of an AI-connected world and its potential impact, and introduces two key skills for maintaining a healthy, happy, and productive life with technology.
It explores the impact of constant distractions on our human connections, how we are different from the technology we have created, and the unintended consequences of not balancing our time online with our own needs for sleep, exercise, and human connection. Colin suggests that ‘we might even be getting dumber!’ when everything is made easy, and we outsource too much of our knowledge and skills to technology.
The talk concludes with a deep dive into the two essential skills of: ‘To know when to be connected and when to digital detox’ and ‘When connected, how to be purposeful, authentic and true your human values.’
This thirty minute keynote talk is designed for schools, colleges and universities. It was first presented at Brentwood School, Essex, UK on the 19 May 2025 and has been updated to make it even more interactive.
