And it's the combination of all the things we've talked about: technology and its transformational effect on work, and demography and the huge explosion in population.

Do schools kill creativity? — Ken Robinson · TED

And I think the best way to understand it is just to show it to you. So I'm going to demonstrate the robotics technology live here on stage,

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

(Laughter) So it's got a bunch of advanced technology in it, but it turns the drone into a fully autonomous device.

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

because they know exactly where he is and what he's doing. Since SFPD has implemented this technology, they’ve seen a 30 percent drop in crime, a 40 percent drop in auto theft --

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

(Laughter) So there is a mountain of technology under the hood that makes this stuff work. Drones are deceptively small, but they're actually on par

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

when and where you need it. But the key enabling technology is actually eyesight -- giving drones the same ability that people have

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

We also see them as toys and tools of entertainment. But there’s actually a very useful function for this technology: to go where people can’t,

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

you know, caused that blaze. But again, like most things, this technology is very dual-use. And that's why we want to have these conversations.

The Invisible Infrastructure in the Sky | Adam Bry | TED · TED

And that's why we want to have these conversations. You ought to know about what the technology is capable of, how it’s being used in every facet of society,

if books are even relevant in this golden age of technology. Think of it this way.

and ants. It's actually about technology and childhood.

How Screens Stole Childhood — and How to Get It Back | Jonathan Haidt | TED · TED

But let's see what we can see about technology and childhood if we start with this premise

How Screens Stole Childhood — and How to Get It Back | Jonathan Haidt | TED · TED

Of course, there are good uses of technology in education. My kids have

How Screens Stole Childhood — and How to Get It Back | Jonathan Haidt | TED · TED

What do we see when we look at technology and childhood through this lens? When we start from the premise that

that I was too late. The technology's here to stay, people said.

movement is not primarily about technology. It's about reclaiming

I use the book I just published, and I'm even building technology to help people overcome their fear of rejection. When you get rejected in life,

And we're at this point where the technology has moved from, “Will it work?” and “Can we produce the kind of safety outcomes that we care about?”

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

In certain markets, it’s absolutely regulation. I think when you think about the evolution of this technology as a whole, it's been making sure that we could have the safety outcomes that we want.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

it's been making sure that we could have the safety outcomes that we want. And all of that is the technology. Can the driver produce these kinds of outcomes?

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

that we were seeking in order to then be able to scale this technology. Now we have markets that are closed, markets that are open,

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

with the regulators, first responders, everyone, in order to advance our technology. So we're laser-focused on doing that.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

which is: safety is urgent, saving lives. If this technology can perform at this level, then we have a responsibility to figure out how to do it.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

to watch different sectors of the economy start to talk about how powerful this technology is. You know, we have Dr. John Slotkin, a neurosurgeon,

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

could be saved if our technology was rolled out, if every car on the road was a Waymo.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

And so we have to introduce sort of that reality in order for the technology to be viewed as solving a problem that society currently faces,

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

And it's even more unacceptable when you have technology that could help address it. SK: Yes, definitely.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

I think what you're saying is how comfortable are humans with this technology being better drivers than humans? You know, it goes back to the status quo.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

Those moments actually cause entire communities to think differently about this technology. And so, you know, to your point: it’s clickbaity.

Waymo’s Case for a Driverless Future | Tekedra Mawakana, Sal Khan | TED · TED

I mean, who knows, right? I think some of this is as the technology rolls out more and more, I think people's imagination actually starts to get sparked

but what about digital technology? We've seen enormous improvements in digital technology like FaceTime, things like that.

but I would say there are some improvements that we could make in the technology. For example, the camera on your laptop is at the top of the screen,
