YouTube Description
as posted by the channelYour brain wasn’t built for constant stimulation.
It was trained into it.
Algorithms condition your nervous system to crave speed, novelty, and dopamine hits. Not because you’re weak, but because artificial stimulation is engineered to hijack your reward system. What feels like choice is often chemistry working against you.
This is what it means to be miswired by the algorithm. Your brain learns to chase what exhausts it. Stillness feels uncomfortable. Real connection feels slow. And over time, natural joy gets drowned out by digital noise.
This isn’t a discipline problem. It’s a neurological one. And the moment you understand that, you stop blaming yourself and start rewiring your brain with intention.
This discussion was made possible by Psychreg, who invited me to speak on how algorithms influence brain health, screen use, and addiction recovery. Honored to speak truth where it matters most.
