New technologies evolve at the speed of lightning and sometimes we are not able to follow all trends and discoveries. And so we have compiled an overview of TOP 12 TED Talks, which will surely put you back in the chair, or maybe you will start to look even more forward to the future that awaits us with new possibilities of quantum computing or AR.
Have you imagined a future where we have flying cars, where you teleport yourselves or live on another planet? These no longer have to be just fantasies. Most of the things you dreamed about or saw in sci-fi movies come true.
We’ve put together 12 TED Talks, featuring inventors, chemists, engineers, and scientists who cross the boundaries of their disciplines and create technologies that have practical applications in everyday life. Take a look into the near future with stunning technologies and an incredible amount of data predicted by world visionaries. In the first part of the TOP 12 TED Talks, we present 6 speakers who are worth listening to.
1. How quantum physics can make encryption stronger
The protection of our data as well as the democratic systems of our states is inadequate and very vulnerable today. See how quantum computing can help with data encryption. Vikram Sharma designs encryption programs that harness the power of quantum physics even against the most sophisticated attacks, and he has a lot to say on the topic.
And if you want to start by simply explaining how quantum physics and quantum computers work, check out the video by Shohini Ghose Quantum computing explained, which explains it to us on a simple analogy of a game with coins.
2. What is deep tech? And how it could shape the future?
You’re also wondering, how is it possible that SpaceX is making such rapid breakthroughs in solving decades of problems? Come and see what deep tech means and you may get a quick answer to this question.
3. How bad data keeps us from good AI
According to data scientist Mainak Mazumdar, the future of the economy should not be built by people or factories, but by algorithms and artificial intelligence. But what happens when AI is trained on incorrect or biased data? Look at the examples from Shanghai or New York that have solved this problem.
