S1E04: Algorithms vs Your Soul: How You're Being Formed by the Feed

This episode goes into the engine room. Jack argues that the feed is not merely information; it is formation. Through attention capture, identity shaping, and moral outsourcing, algorithms train what you notice, what you fear, what you mock, what you love, and who you think you are. The algorithm does not need to understand you. It only needs to predict you. But prediction is power, and power needs boundaries. Instead of deleting your phone and moving to a decorative cabin, Jack offers practical counter-moves: add friction, choose your formation diet, and re-embody your life. The goal is simple: treat the feed like a tool, not a tutor. www.jacksorrin.com
