Fighting “Digital Resignation,” How A.I Will Improve the Legal System, Are Artificial Sweeteners Bad for Us, and ‘Cancer Warrior’ Robin Matrai.

Is it inevitable that our personal data will be ‘mined’ by apps we use regularly like TikTok? We get some tips to protect your data online and learn about a concept known as “digital resignation” from Meiling Fong, PhD Student from Concordia University. We’ve talked many times on the program about the increasing applications for Artificial Intelligence in our lives, from education to business marketing and even advertising. Now a new use for “A.I.”, helping Lawyers handle their case-loads. We get details on how the ‘technology’ could streamline the legal process, from Adbi Aidid, Professor of Law from the University of Toronto. Artificial sweeteners are in so many food and drink products, but are they actually bad for our health? A new study shows one particular sweetener could increase your risk of having a stroke or a heart attack. We discuss the research with Dr. Ted Jablonski, our ‘on-call’ family physician. Finally, we meet Calgary based ‘Cancer Warrior’ Robin Matrai. Robin shares her gripping personal story, and offers up some tips to stay ‘positive’ during adversity, on another edition of “Motivational Monday”.
