Cyberpsychological impact of automation, mediated, and computing technologies
As a humane technologist, I advocate solutions that prioritize users' needs and well-being.
But as a cyberpsychologist, I also consider our interplay with technology as it relates to the psychologies of our human brains.

Affective computing, social media, metaverses, AR/VR, and other related technologies
These cybertechnologies incur their own ethical challenges, not to mention AI underpins much of these platforms and services.
Therefore, writings may also touch upon related trends from time to time.

Vibrant aspects of our technoculture
It's impossible to explore cyberpsychological aspects of automation, mediated, and computing technology without spotlighting trending or curious effects to our social culture(s).
That's why writings periodically touch on how AI-enabled technologies influence and impact our relationships, our jobs and economies, and our governments — domestically or abroad.
