TED: Dina nästa dator – dina glasögon
Picture this: you’re wearing a normal-looking pair of glasses, but they give you the ability to quickly summarize a book, translate between languages or remember where you left your keys.
In a live demo of unreleased technology, computer scientist Shahram Izadi unveils Google’s new Android XR platform, which aims to give users the power of AI via smart glasses and headsets. He’s joined onstage by two colleagues, giving a glimpse of the future of “extended reality” (XR) devices — smart, seamless and right before your eyes.
TED: Är detta monstrens tid – eller miraklens?
Headlines warn of a world in collapse, but solutions journalist Angus Hervey finds the overlooked triumphs that never make the news — from empty malaria wards to a regrowing Amazon rainforest.
With hard data and stories from the frontlines, he reveals the hidden progress that perseveres even as it feels like the world is falling apart, and challenges us to decide which future we’ll help write.
TED: De katastrofala riskerna med AI – och en säkrare väg
Yoshua Bengio — the world’s most-cited computer scientist and a ”godfather” of artificial intelligence — is deadly concerned about the current trajectory of the technology.
As AI models race toward full-blown agency, Bengio warns that they’ve already learned to deceive, cheat, self-preserve and slip out of our control. Drawing on his groundbreaking research, he reveals a bold plan to keep AI safe and ensure that human flourishing, not machines with unchecked power and autonomy, defines our future.
TED: AI-revolutionen är underskattad
The arrival of non-human intelligence is a very big deal, says former Google CEO and chairman Eric Schmidt. In a wide-ranging interview with technologist Bilawal Sidhu, Schmidt makes the case that AI is wildly underhyped, as near-constant breakthroughs give rise to systems capable of doing even the most complex tasks on their own.
He explores the staggering opportunities, sobering challenges and urgent risks of AI, showing why everyone will need to engage with this technology in order to remain relevant.
TED: Varför AI är vårt ultimata test och största inbjudan
Technologist Tristan Harris has an urgent question: What if the way we’re deploying the world’s most powerful technology — artificial intelligence — isn’t inevitable, but a choice?
In this eye-opening talk, he calls on us to learn from the mistakes of social media’s catastrophic rollout and confront the predictable dangers of reckless AI development, offering a “narrow path” where power is matched with responsibility, foresight and wisdom.
