Plus Steven raises concerns over the accessibility of the Facebook web platform.The discussion also touches on the human experience of disability, the importance of civil discourse, and the impact of technology on social interactions, including the use of AI tools like Copilot and the enjoyment of board games as a means of connection.Get in touch with Double Tap by emailing us [email protected] or by call 1-877-803-4567 and leave us a voicemail.
