What can happy rats teach us about human joy? Behavioral neuroscientist Kelly Lambert describes how her team trained rats to drive tiny cars to earn treats — and noticed something surprising about how effort and anticipation affect the brain. The experiment opens new questions about how reward, agency and "behaviorceuticals" might help build resilience and support mental health.

AI artist Mick Mahler has a counterintuitive take: the more powerful the machines get, the less the technology actually matters. Showing delightful examples of his own art, from jazz-playing spiders to a Kafka-inspired beetle film, he explains how you can use new technology to serve your vision (not replace it).

Streaming media gives us access to everything instantly, but at what cost? Music professor Tom Rizzuto traces the history of physical media — from CDs and vinyl to bone music (Soviet-era records pressed onto discarded X-rays) and the near-loss of "Nosferatu" — making the case that art shouldn't just live in the cloud.
流媒体让我们能够即时获取一切，但代价是什么？音乐教授汤姆·里祖托（Tom Rizzuto）追溯了实体媒体的历史——从CD和黑胶唱片到骨碟（苏联时期压在废弃X光片上的唱片）以及《诺斯费拉图》险些失传的事件——以此论证艺术不应该仅仅存在于云端。 -

We are wired for connection, and yet many of us spend most of our lives avoiding it, says behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley. Drawing on decades of research into happiness, loneliness and well-being, he reveals why we consistently underestimate how receptive others are to connecting — and invites us to seize the small moments that lead to a more social life.

Deep tech entrepreneur D. Scott Phoenix spent years building AI — now, he believes we're on the cusp of a profound merger between humans and machines. Reframing the AI debate through the lens of evolutionary biology, he shifts the question from whether we should fear or embrace AI to whether we understand what's at stake if we get it wrong.

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.
俄狄浦斯的故事和你的保险保费有什么共同点？它们都由自我实现的预言驱动。哲学家、TED研究员卡丽莎·维利兹（Carissa Véliz）追溯了预测的隐秘力量，从禁止预言家的罗马皇帝，到此刻正悄悄决定你生活方方面面的AI算法。她指出，我们往往将预测与知识联系在一起，但实际上，预测是攫取权力的一种手段。因此，下次有人告诉你某个特定结果是不可避免的时候，请记住：他们并非在描述未来——而是在兜售它。
卡丽莎·维利兹（Carissa Véliz）是作家、主题演讲人，也是牛津大学人工智能伦理研究所的副教授。卡丽莎研究人工智能伦理、隐私、商业伦理以及公共政策，为世界各地的公司和政府提供咨询，同时，她还是质子基金会的董事会成员，以及联合国教科文组织“女性促进人工智能伦理”小组的成员。

We see consciousness in AI the same way we see faces in clouds, says neuroscientist Anil Seth. He explores the all-too-human tendency to project inner life onto machines that are brilliant mimics, not sentient beings, and gives a definitive answer to the urgent question: Will AI ever gain consciousness?
神经科学家阿尼尔・塞斯（Anil Seth）表示，我们从人工智能身上看到意识，就如同从云朵里看出人脸图案一样。他剖析了人类一种根深蒂固的本能倾向：总把内心的主观生命感，投射到人工智能机器上；而这类机器只是高超的模仿者，并非拥有感知能力的生命体。同时，他也针对一个备受关注的迫切问题给出了明确答案：人工智能究竟能否产生意识？ -
You've never seen data presented like this. With the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, statistics guru Hans Rosling debunks myths about the so-called "developing world."
你肯定没有看过这样的数据演示。如解说体育比赛实况一般的生动与紧张，统计大师汉斯·罗斯林将颠覆所谓 “发展中国家” 这一理念。即使是我们中最见多识广、最见多数的人，也因汉斯·罗斯林而改变了他们的视角。作为瑞典卡罗林斯卡学院的全球健康教授，他的研究重点是打破关于所谓发展中国家的常见误区，正如他所指出的，这个国家已不再遥远于西方。事实上，大多数第三世界国家正朝着健康与繁荣的轨迹前进，许多国家的进步速度是西方的两倍。
使罗斯林与众不同的不仅是他对广泛社会和经济趋势的精准观察，更在于他令人惊艳的呈现方式。保证：你从未见过这样的数据呈现。一个追踪全球健康和贫困趋势的演讲，用一个词来说，应该是：无聊。但在罗斯林手中，数据却唱歌。潮流会活起来。而大局——通常充其量是模糊的——瞬间变得清晰。
罗斯林的演讲以扎实的统计数据为基础（通常来自联合国和世界银行的数据），并由他开发的可视化软件加以说明。动画将发展统计数据转化为流动的气泡和流动曲线，使全球趋势清晰、直观甚至充满趣味。在他传奇性的演讲中，罗斯林更进一步，以体育播音员的风格解说动画。
Rosling 通过与儿子和儿媳共同创立的非营利组织 Gapminder，开发了他可视化背后的突破性软件。这款免费软件——可以加载任何数据——于2007年3月被谷歌收购。（罗斯林在TED上见到了谷歌的创始人。）
罗斯林开始了他广泛的医生生涯，花了多年时间在非洲农村追踪一种罕见的麻痹性疾病（他命名为康佐），并发现了其病因：饥饿和加工不良的木薯。他共同创立了瑞典无国界医生组织，撰写了全球健康教科书，并作为斯德哥尔摩卡罗林斯卡学院教授，发起了重要的国际研究合作。他还曾与许多国家元首亲自争论过，包括菲德尔·卡斯特罗。
汉斯·罗斯林于2017年2月去世。人们深深怀念他。

Plastic is everywhere. It’s in our clothes, our food, the air we breathe. And plastic is now also in our bodies. Micro and nanoplastics generally enter our bodies in one of three ways: the air, our skin, and what we eat and drink. But how exactly do these microscopic particles affect our health? Dig into how they can interrupt your body’s processes, and how we can begin to fix our plastic problem. [Directed by Vicente Nirõ, AIM Creative Studios, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by André Aires].
塑料无处不在。它存在于我们的衣物中、食物里，还有我们呼吸的空气里。如今，塑料也进入了我们的身体。微塑料和纳米塑料通常通过三种途径进入人体：呼吸、接触，以及饮食摄入。但这些微小的颗粒究竟会对我们的健康产生什么影响？让我们一起探究它们如何干扰人体的生理机能，以及我们可以怎样着手解决塑料污染问题。 【导演：维森特·尼罗（AIM创意工作室），讲解：艾迪生·安德森，音乐：安德烈·艾雷斯】 -

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)
OpenClaw 的创始人彼得·斯坦伯格（Peter Steinberger）带我们回到那个他把 AI 代理释放到互联网上、点燃了全球增长最快的开源项目之一的变革性时刻。他提出了一个引人入胜（且略显不安）的观点：代理技术不仅是聊天机器人的升级，而是一场真正的变革，并探讨它们如何重塑我们工作的方式、构建和创造的能力。
“龙虾已经逃逸，已经无法再回到水槽里，”他如是说。
（随后简短的 Q&A 环节，与 TED 主席克里斯·安德森（Chris Anderson）对话。） -
As a child in rural Kenya, conservationist Seif Hamisi fell asleep to the sound of lions outside his village. Today, the lions are gone, mirroring a continent-wide trend: African wildlife populations have plummeted in recent decades, despite billions spent to protect nature. Drawing on examples of successful conservation efforts from the grasslands of South Africa to the woodlands of Kenya, he shows how we've been attempting to solve the wrong problem — and makes the case that conservation works best when it makes economic sense.
小时候在肯尼亚农村，保护主义者赛夫·哈米西（Seif Hamisi）在村子外的狮子声中睡着了。今天，狮子已经消失了，这反映了整个大陆的趋势：尽管花费了数十亿美元来保护自然，但近几十年来，非洲野生动物的数量急剧下降。他借鉴了从南非草原到肯尼亚林地的成功保护工作的例子，展示了我们如何试图解决错误的问题——并认为保护在经济上有意义时效果最好。 -
