The Challenge of Information Overload
The podcast discusses the overwhelming amount of information available to individuals today, comparing it to historical contexts where access was much more limited. Scholars estimate that the average person encounters more information in a single day than someone in the 1400s would encounter in their entire lifetime. This abundance of information stems from the extensive time people spend, approximately 12 to 13 hours daily, engaging with digital media. Consequently, while easy access to information can be beneficial, it also poses challenges regarding its quality and our ability to process it effectively.
