🧠Megan J. McArdle
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

Looking back, McArdle reframes today’s fears with a poignant question: If we halt progress to protect the present, what might we be stealing from the future?

👁Scientists still don't know the answer to this infamous question
🧠Daniel Kwartler
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣In 1980, philosopher John Searle developed a thought experiment in response to AI advancement at the time. His aim was to interrogate whether a programmed computer has cognitive states, and asked: if a computer looks like it understands something, does that mean it actually understands the way a human does? Charles Wallace and Dan Kwartler explore whether or not AI could have a mind like ours. [Directed by Hernando Bahamon, Vicente Numpaque, Globizco Studios, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Bravo Studio].

👁Why are people starting to sound like ChatGPT?
🧠Adam Aleksic
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English | 🇹🇷Turkish

👣Algorithms and AI don't just show us reality — they warp it in ways that benefit platforms built to exploit people for profit, says etymologist Adam Aleksic. From ChatGPT influencing our word choices to Spotify turning a data cluster into a new musical genre, he reveals how new technology subconsciously shapes our language, trends and sense of identity. "These aren't neutral tools," he says, encouraging us to constantly ask ourselves: How am I being influenced?

👁How I created OpenClaw, the breakthrough AI agent
🧠Peter Steinberger
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

👣OpenClaw creator Peter Steinberger takes us back to the transformative moment he let his AI agent loose on the internet, igniting one of the world's fastest-growing open-source projects. He makes a fascinating (and slightly unnerving) case that agents are a real shift, not just better versions of chatbots, and explores how they might reshape your ability to work, build and create. "The lobster is loose, and it's not going back into the tank," he says. (Followed by a brief Q&A with TED Chairman Chris Anderson)

👁Beware the power of prediction
🧠Carissa Véliz
🗣Subtitle: 🇬🇧English

👣What do the story of Oedipus and your insurance premiums have in common? They are both driven by self-fulfilling prophecies. Philosopher and TED Fellow Carissa Véliz traces the hidden power of prediction, from Roman emperors who banned prophets to the AI algorithms quietly making decisions about your life right now. We tend to associate predictions with knowledge, she says, but they're actually attempts to grab power. So the next time someone tells you a specific outcome is inevitable, remember: they aren't describing the future — they're selling it.
