The more we rely on technology to make us efficient, the fewer skills we have to confront the unexpected, says writer and entrepreneur Margaret Heffernan. She shares why we need less tech and more messy human skills — imagination, humility, bravery — to solve problems in business, government and life in an unpredictable age. "We are brave enough to invent things we've never seen before," she says. "We can make any future we choose."

Soft skills, leadership and stable mind.
O’SSÉIN – Master Your Mind With Me — thank you. She’s an eloquent and experienced speaker, but it’s very wordy.
I’m beginning to become concerned that certain inventions will take over
What do you mean by human skills?
Im pretty sure it’s a term to separate savages from people that are civilized.
Skills that only humans can develop. I think it’s a way to say “We must not to let it all to the machines”. As it says in the description, people need the best of human ethics to be ready to control the future without risking it all.
Hmmmm… Now I have to think real hard about all this..
You know, what really struck me is that the speaker does not even read the script but still is very fluent in what she tries to deliver. That will help the editors spend less time on making videos.
Yuntube윤튜브 how do you know she isn’t following script?
Are you familiar with the term audio-prompter or teleprompter…. or she just might have histrionic capabilities… and she is very smart…

Wel literally follwing the saying.
“We’ll cross that bridge when we get there.”
Meaning We’ll handle it when we get there. IF it happens. Extremely risking because you may be reducing the chances of depreciations.
You can see this in all things in life, anything based on religion or culture which simplifies things, tends to push out the unique… not only at work places.
Wow a decent ted talk in ages.
Powerful wisdom in this talk.
One of the best vidéos .
Thank you for this rich content
Uncertainty is most certain. People need to be able to react and act in uncerain times. Tech and tech efficiency have people at a certainty disadvantage and in that we lose our creative ability to efficiently react on the fly.
I almost cried … you were the best speakers I ever heard
Preparedness,correlation building,imagination and bravery.
I prefer to improvise, not plan. That’s why I never turn down a jar of dirt.
l love dog ♥️
