TED的英文演讲稿 篇一:探索人工智能的潜力
Title: Exploring the Potential of Artificial Intelligence
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,
Thank you for having me here today. It is an honor to stand before such an esteemed audience and share my thoughts on the topic of artificial intelligence (AI). Today, I will explore the potential of AI and its impact on various aspects of our lives.
AI has been a topic of great interest and debate in recent years. It is a field of study that focuses on creating intelligent machines capable of performing tasks that would typically require human intelligence. From self-driving cars to virtual assistants, AI has made significant advancements and is becoming increasingly integrated into our daily lives.
One area where AI shows great potential is in healthcare. With the ability to analyze vast amounts of medical data, AI can help diagnose diseases at an early stage, predict patient outcomes, and even assist in surgical procedures. This not only improves the accuracy of diagnoses but also enhances the overall efficiency of healthcare systems.
Education is another field that can benefit from AI. Intelligent tutoring systems can personalize learning experiences, adapting to each student's individual needs and providing tailored feedback. This can revolutionize the way we learn, making education more engaging and effective for students of all ages.
AI also has the potential to transform the business world. From customer service chatbots to predictive analytics, AI can streamline operations, improve decision-making, and enhance customer experiences. Companies that embrace AI technologies will gain a competitive edge and be better equipped to meet the demands of an ever-evolving market.
However, as we explore the potential of AI, we must also address the ethical implications that arise. The development of AI raises concerns about job displacement, privacy, and the potential for misuse. It is crucial that we establish guidelines and regulations to ensure that AI is developed and used responsibly, in a way that benefits society as a whole.
In conclusion, AI has the potential to revolutionize various aspects of our lives, from healthcare to education and business. It offers new opportunities for innovation and efficiency, but also raises important ethical considerations. As we move forward, it is essential that we strike a balance between harnessing the potential of AI and addressing its implications. Let us embrace AI as a tool for progress and work towards a future where humans and machines can coexist harmoniously.
Thank you.
TED的英文演讲稿 篇二:打破性创新:用设计思维解决全球问题
Title: Disruptive Innovation: Solving Global Issues with Design Thinking
Good afternoon, distinguished guests,
I am delighted to be here today to talk about the power of design thinking in solving global problems. Design thinking is a human-centered approach that combines empathy, creativity, and rationality to tackle complex challenges. Today, I will share how this approach can drive disruptive innovation and create positive change in our world.
We live in a time of unprecedented global challenges, from climate change to poverty and inequality. These problems require innovative solutions that go beyond traditional approaches. Design thinking offers a fresh perspective, encouraging us to think outside the box and consider the needs and experiences of the people affected by these issues.
One area where design thinking has shown remarkable success is in sustainable development. By understanding the needs of local communities and involving them in the design process, we can create solutions that are both environmentally friendly and socially inclusive. This approach has led to the development of innovative technologies, such as solar-powered lamps for rural areas and affordable water purification systems for low-income communities.
Design thinking also plays a crucial role in healthcare innovation. By empathizing with patients and healthcare providers, we can identify pain points and design solutions that improve access to quality healthcare. This has resulted in the development of mobile health applications, telemedicine platforms, and wearable devices that empower individuals to take control of their health and well-being.
Furthermore, design thinking has the potential to drive social innovation by addressing pressing social issues. By understanding the root causes of problems such as poverty and inequality, we can design interventions that create sustainable change. For example, microfinance initiatives have provided financial services to individuals who were previously excluded from the formal banking sector, empowering them to start businesses and improve their livelihoods.
However, to fully harness the power of design thinking, we must foster a culture of innovation and collaboration. This requires breaking down silos and bringing together diverse perspectives and expertise. By creating interdisciplinary teams and promoting open dialogue, we can unlock the full potential of design thinking and drive disruptive innovation.
In conclusion, design thinking offers a powerful approach to solving global problems. By combining empathy, creativity, and rationality, we can create innovative solutions that address the needs and experiences of the people affected by these issues. Let us embrace design thinking as a tool for positive change and work together to build a more sustainable and inclusive world.
Thank you.
TED的英文演讲稿 篇三
TED的英文演讲稿
Ihave spent the last years, trying to resolve two enigmas: why is productivity so disappointing in all the companies where I work? I have worked with more than 500 companies. Despite all the technological advance – computers, IT, communications, telecommunications, the internet.
Enigma number two: why is there so little engagement at work? Why do people feel so miserable, even actively disengaged? Disengaged their colleagues. Acting against the interest of their company. Despite all the affiliation events, the celebration, the people initiatives, the leadership development programs to train managers on how to better motivate their teams.
At the beginning, I thought there was a chicken and egg issue: because people are less engaged, they are less productive. Or vice versa, because they are less productive, we put more pressure and they are less engaged. But as we were doing our analysis we realized that there was a common root cause to these two issues that relates, in fact, to the basic pillars of management. The way we organize is based on two pillars.
The hard—structure, processes, systems.
The soft—feeling, sentiments, interpersonal relationship, traits, personality.
And whenever a company reorganizes, restructures, reengineers, goes through a cultural transformation program, it chooses these two pillars. Now we try to refine them, we try to combine them. The real issue is – and this is the answer to the two enigmas – these pillar are obsolete.
Everything you read in business books is based either two of the other or their combine. They are obsolete. How do they work when you try to use these approaches in front of the new complexity of business? The hard approach, basically is that you start from strategy, requirement, structure, processes, systems, KPIs, scorecards, committees, headquarters, hubs, clusters, you name it. I forgot all the metrics, incentives, committees, middle offices and interfaces. What happens basically on the left, you have more complexity, the new complexity of business. We need quality, cost, reliability, speed. And every time there is a new requirement, we use the same approach. We create dedicated structure processed systems, basically to
deal with the new complexity of business. The hard approach creates just complicatedness in the organization.Let’s take an example. An automotive company, the engineering pision is a five-dimensional matrix. If you open any cell of the matrix, you find another 20-dimensional matrix. You have Mr. Noise, Mr. Petrol Consumption, Mr. Anti-Collision Propertise. For any new requirement,
you have a dedicated function in charge of aligning engineers against the new requirement. What happens when the new requirement emerges?
Some years ago, a new requirement appeared on the marketplace: the length of the warranty period. So therefore the requirement is repairability, making cars easy to repair. Otherwise when you bring the car to the garage to fix the light, if you have to remove the engine to access the lights, the car will have to stay one week in the garage instead of two hours, and the warranty budget will explode. So, what was the solution using the hard approach? If repairability is the rew requirement, the solution is to create a new function, Mr. Repairability. And Mr. Repairability creates the repairability process. With a repairability scorecard, with a repairability metric and eventually repairability incentive.That came on top of 25 other KPIs. What percentage of these people is variable compensation? Twenty percent at most, pided by 26 KPIs, repairability makes a difference of 0.8 percent. What difference did it make in their action, their choices to simplify? Zero. But what occurs for zero impact? Mr. Repairability, process, scorecard, evaluation, coordination with the 25 other coordinators to have zero impact. Now, in front of the new complexity of business, the only solution is not drawing box es with reporting lines. It is basically the interplay. How the parts work together. The connection, the interaction, the synapse. It is not skeleton of boxes, it is the nervous system of adaptiveness and
intelligence. You know, you could call it cooperation, basically. Whenever people cooperate, they use less resources. In everything. You know, the repairability issue is a cooperation problem.
When you design cars, please take into account the need of those who will repair the cars in the after sales garage. When we don’t cooperate we need more time, more equipment, more system, more teams. We need – when procurement, supply chain, manufacturing don’t cooperate we need more stock, more investories, more working capital.
Who will pay for that? Shareholder? Customers? No, they will refuse. So who is left? The employees, who have tocompensate through their super inpidual efforts for the lack of cooperation. Stress, burnout, they are overwhelmed, accidents. No wonder they disengage.
How do the hard and the soft try to foster cooperation?
The hard: in banks, when there is problem between the back office and the front office, they don’t cooperate. What is the solution? They create a middle office.
What happens one years later? Instead of one problem between the back and front, now have to problems. Between the back and the middle and between the middle and the front. Plus I have to pay for the middle office. The hard approach is unable to foster cooperation. It can only add new boxes, new bones in the skeleton.
The soft approach: to make people cooperate, we need to make then like each other. Improve interpersonal feelings, the more people laike each other, the more they will cooperate. It is totally worng. It even counterproductive.
Look, at home I have two TVs. Why? Precisely not to have to cooperate with my wife. Not to have to impose tradeoffs to my wife. And why I try not to impose tradeoffs to my wife is precisely because I love my wife. If I didn’t love my wife, one TV would be enough: you will watch my favorite football game, if you are not happy, how is the book or the door?
The more we like each other, the more we avoid the real cooperation that would strain our relationships by imposing tough tradeoffs. And we go for a second TV or we escalate the decision above for arbitration.
Definitely, these approaches are obsolete. To deal with complexity, to enhance nervous system, we have created what we call the smart simplicity approach based on simple rules. Simple rule number one: understand what others do. What is their real work? We need go beyond the boxes, the job description, beyond the surface of the container, to understand the real content. Me, designer, if I put a wire here, I know that it will mean that we will have to remove the engine to access the lights. Second, you need to reinforce integrators.
