The Prime Minister is hoping to get bipartisan support for banning under-16s from social media. MP Catherine Wedd is putting the Member's Bill proposal in to Parliament's Biscuit Tin - the repository for such bills that are then randomly selected. It follows similar to moves in Australia, and puts more responsibility on social media companies. Former Facebook CEO for Australia and New Zealand, Stephen Scheeler, says social media is difficult to regulate - and there's lots of ways to get around a potential ban. "We've all been teenagers before - you're not supposed to buy alcohol or buy tobacco, and many kids get around this...but with social media, it's the same. There's lots of ways to get around these prohibitions." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Facebook, and its parent company Meta, is saying goodbye to fact-checkers. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in an announcement posted to social media that fact checkers had become “too politically biased”, and have "destroyed more trust than they've created, especially in the US". Meta will also change its algorithms to recommend more political content on its platforms. Does the move have anything to do with Trump’s threats to jail Zuckerberg for life for alleged US election interference? And what is this going to mean for our Facebook and Instagram feeds in 2025? Stephen Scheeler knows Mark Zuckerberg and is a former CEO of Facebook in Australia. What does he think of the tech super leader bending the knee to a Donald Trump administration? He joins Bension Siebert on this episode of The Briefing to unpack the announcement, and what happens next.

Listen to Stephen Scheeler, CEO & Co-Founder of Omniscient Neurotechnology, relate how his corporate career moved to the internet and e-commerce sector, working at Facebook and finally setting up Omniscient, a leader in the field of neurotechnology. Stephen describes how he joined Facebook as one of the "adults" who helped transform the company from cult success into a global powerhouse.

In this week's episode, host Mike Moore speaks with Stephen Scheeler, the CEO and Managing Director of brain data company Omniscient Neurotechnology.  Omniscient uses aritifical intelligence and a new field of neurotechnology called connectomics to create a digital map of the brain, known as a connectome, to better understand and eventually design unique treatments for conditions like depression, Alzheimer's, schizophrenia and stroke.  Today, Stephen talks about how brain mapping works, the science behind connectomics, and the vast human potential Omniscient Neurotechnology is hoping to unlock.  Notable Quotes “They said, this changes everything. This changes our understanding of the human brain so fundamentally that it's gonna unlock all kinds of human potential over the next, you know, hundred years. And when you have people with this caliber tell you those things, you take pause. And so we started to talk about how we could maybe work together. I started helping them figure out their business model. I went to China to talk to some of the researchers that were already working in that market. And I got more and more fascinated and just saw the potential of what we were trying to build. So I kind of got more and more involved.” – Stephen (10:35) “Everybody, every wiring, every building is a little different. And so what we do is we bring those wiring maps. We build those maps so that if you have pain or you forgot where you left your keys, or you're feeling a little anxious or depressed or whatever, if you're suicidal, if it's that severe, we can map that. And we can show where in your connectome, in your wiring, the problem lies. And so that's a complete transformation for everything we do about the human brain today.” – Stephen (15:31) In This Episode (01:33) Stephen's background (04:15) The genesis of Omniscient Neurotechnology (08:45) Neuroscience, AI and the field of connectomics  (13:01) What is connectomics?  (16:16) Connectomics and mental health treatment (17:31) How brain mapping works (27:10) The economic benefits and human potential of Omniscient Neurotechnology (29:44) Psychedelics and neuroscience (35:26) The surgical implications (48:56) The future of Omniscient (51:30) Omniscient's biggest challenges Our Guest Stephen Scheeler is the CEO and Managing Director of brain data company Omniscient Neurotechnology.

Today we are joined by Stephen Scheeler! Former Facebook and Instagram MD for Australia and New Zealand, Senior Advisor at McKinsey & Co and TEDx Speaker.Stephen and I sat down at the Sydney office of McKinsey and Co to have a fascinating discussion going back to Stephen’s childhood in small town USA. And, how he longed to go to university in Europe, yet was awarded a Scholarship to study in Japan, and how this introverted young man became the American everyone wanted to know – from fellow students to the local mayor. We hear how Stephen’s study of east Asian history and with little interest in tech, he found himself entering the world of tech juggernauts.We discuss the obsession of the likes of Facebook in being THE employer of choice, requires putting staff contentment at the top of strategic priorities. And, how staff incentives from free food for staff and families, to the option for female staff to freeze their embryos have become the norm in Silicon Valley, to take the distractions away from a high performing team. We explore the importance of a vision staff can truly believe in and thrive towards. And, the fine line between a strong culture and cult like faith in such young, wealthy and almost magical leaders.Real People is a podcast hosted by Jason Dunstone, the founder and managing director of Square Holes.

My next guest is the former Facebook CEO for Australia and New Zealand, Stephen Scheeler. A role which saw him play an integral role in the company’s unprecedented rise from quirky Silicon Valley startup to media and technology titan. During his time here he co-collaborated with the greatest minds in tech and business, Mark Zuckerberg, Sheryl Sandberg and other luminaries of the silicon sphere. Today he’s the founder of The Digital CEO, Senior Advisor to McKinsey & Company and he continues to share his wisdom with the leaders of heavy hitters such as Qantas, Google and the Australian Government. As part of this podcast, and those who have listened before will know this, we take a look at all angles of what it takes to be an influencer in your space, in the hopes that, whether you are wanting to command more respect in a boardroom, or generate attention and engagement with a cause you care about, we can give you the tools and insights needed to be the authority. In a business context there’s no better example of a person of influence than a CEO, and at the top of the top of influential CEOs there are the rare few who can say that they have played a part in guiding a business from little known start up, to a global phenomenon. Which is why, when you have the opportunity to meet one of these individuals, the unicorns of the CEO space, you grab them with both hands and make them tell you their story. I think all of us, whether you are in the media industry, or not, can appreciate that we are navigating business in a time of relentless change and unequivocal speed. To put the pace of change we face here today into perspective, it took 40 years for 50 mil radios to be bought, 14 years for 50 mil TVs to be sold and only 1 year for 50 million Facebook accounts to be created. And if you think that’s where the craziness of these stats stop, you’re wrong, because it took only 4 months for 50 million Wechat accounts to be set up. So what can we, as business leaders, do to navigate through thischange? And better yet, what can we do to shape it? One of the most fascinating parts of my discussion with Steven is when we discuss the rise of Facebook, not as a social channel, but as the leading source of news on a global level. He shares a story, which I won’t spoil, but he shares a story about how a media mogul of the old world press asked for his insight into how on earth Facebook was able to seemingly come out of nowhere to be his biggest competitor. The punchline of that story will floor you, and perhaps give you an insight into how disruption really is the result of industries taking their own power and scale for granted. If I was to sum up the value on this discussion it lies in that one story, how, as the leader of a business can you make sure that you aren’t just reacting to the rapidly changing world around us, but how can you get out in front and lead it? Because by the time you realise disruption is coming, it’s already too late. Other things we discuss, we talk about: - Fake news – how can we navigate a world of click bait to create businesses that are able to inspire trust- Curiosity – how the key to navigating disruption lies in asking questions- The new ways of telling stories that cut through in a world of earned attention- The balance between high tech and high touch in navigating automation and AI There’s a saying that the ability to learn from someones entire lifetime of experience lies in a cup of coffee, well in this case it’s a podcast and it was an absolute privilege to extract learnings from a CEO who has truly walked his talk and lead on the cutting edge!
