Show notes

HR Happy Hour - Episode 103 - Best of the HR Happy Hour Show - Replay of Episode 87 - 'Robots and Social Networks' - sponsored by Aquire. This week the HR Happy Hour takes a one-week break from the live schedule, and replays one of the best shows from the last two years, Episode 87 - 'Robots and Social Networks' - originally aired on Feb. 17, 2011. The show featured MIT Professor and author Shery Turkle, who talked about her recent book 'Alone Together', and how technology, and in particular artificial intelligence and social networks are fundamentally changing our relationships, our work, and ourselves. It was my favorite show of the last two years, and I hope you can take some time to listen in. We will be back next week with a live HR Happy Hour show, but for now, enjoy this first 'Best of' show!
