and<00:00:16.490> I<00:00:16.550> want<00:00:16.730> to<00:00:16.760> talk<00:00:16.910> about<00:00:17.090> my
and I want to talk about my
and I want to talk about my
investigations<00:00:18.500> into<00:00:19.540> what<00:00:20.540> technology
investigations into what technology
investigations into what technology
means<00:00:21.580> in<00:00:22.580> our<00:00:22.790> lives<00:00:23.060> not<00:00:23.599> just<00:00:23.660> our
means in our lives not just our
means in our lives not just our
immediate<00:00:25.220> life<00:00:25.520> but<00:00:25.760> in<00:00:25.849> the<00:00:25.880> cosmic<00:00:26.360> sense
immediate life but in the cosmic sense
immediate life but in the cosmic sense
in<00:00:26.750> a<00:00:26.810> kind<00:00:26.989> of<00:00:27.020> a<00:00:27.110> long<00:00:27.380> history<00:00:27.980> of<00:00:28.279> the<00:00:29.180> world
in a kind of a long history of the world
in a kind of a long history of the world
and<00:00:29.869> and<00:00:30.310> our<00:00:31.310> place<00:00:31.579> in<00:00:31.759> the<00:00:31.849> world<00:00:32.380> what<00:00:33.380> is
and and our place in the world what is
and and our place in the world what is
this<00:00:33.860> stuff<00:00:34.070> what<00:00:34.399> what<00:00:34.579> is<00:00:34.700> the<00:00:34.850> significance
this stuff what what is the significance
this stuff what what is the significance
and<00:00:35.570> so<00:00:35.810> I<00:00:36.020> want<00:00:36.440> to<00:00:36.470> kind<00:00:36.649> of<00:00:36.680> go<00:00:36.800> through<00:00:36.829> my
and so I want to kind of go through my
and so I want to kind of go through my
little<00:00:38.470> story<00:00:39.470> of<00:00:39.560> what<00:00:40.190> I<00:00:40.220> found<00:00:40.460> out<00:00:40.730> and<00:00:41.059> one
little story of what I found out and one
little story of what I found out and one
of<00:00:41.360> the<00:00:41.450> first<00:00:41.660> things<00:00:41.840> I<00:00:41.960> started<00:00:42.020> to
of the first things I started to
of the first things I started to
investigate<00:00:42.829> was<00:00:43.010> the<00:00:43.250> history<00:00:43.550> of<00:00:43.610> the<00:00:43.670> name
investigate was the history of the name
investigate was the history of the name
of<00:00:44.540> technology<00:00:45.200> and<00:00:45.410> in<00:00:46.280> the<00:00:46.430> United<00:00:46.700> States
of technology and in the United States
of technology and in the United States
there's<00:00:47.150> a<00:00:47.390> State<00:00:47.750> of<00:00:47.780> the<00:00:47.840> Union<00:00:47.900> address
there's a State of the Union address
there's a State of the Union address
given<00:00:48.740> by<00:00:48.950> every<00:00:49.130> presidents<00:00:49.640> that<00:00:50.240> since
given by every presidents that since
given by every presidents that since
1790<00:00:51.740> and<00:00:52.160> each<00:00:52.310> one<00:00:52.520> of<00:00:52.640> those<00:00:52.790> is<00:00:53.390> really
1790 and each one of those is really
1790 and each one of those is really
kind<00:00:54.290> of<00:00:54.380> summing<00:00:55.160> up<00:00:55.250> the<00:00:55.310> most<00:00:55.640> important
kind of summing up the most important
kind of summing up the most important
things<00:00:56.600> for<00:00:57.050> the<00:00:57.380> United<00:00:57.590> States<00:00:57.770> at<00:00:57.890> that
things for the United States at that
things for the United States at that
time<00:00:58.250> if<00:00:58.820> you<00:00:58.910> search<00:00:59.270> for<00:00:59.780> the<00:01:00.110> word
time if you search for the word
time if you search for the word
technology<00:01:00.830> it<00:01:00.950> was<00:01:01.040> not<00:01:01.280> used<00:01:01.820> until<00:01:02.540> 1952<00:01:03.320> so
technology it was not used until 1952 so
technology it was not used until 1952 so
technology<00:01:04.909> was<00:01:05.210> sort<00:01:05.329> of<00:01:05.360> absent<00:01:05.900> from
technology was sort of absent from
technology was sort of absent from
everybody<00:01:06.799> thinking<00:01:07.189> until<00:01:07.400> 1952<00:01:07.970> which
everybody thinking until 1952 which
everybody thinking until 1952 which
happened<00:01:08.479> to<00:01:08.509> be<00:01:08.600> the<00:01:08.930> year<00:01:09.140> of<00:01:09.350> my<00:01:09.470> birth<00:01:09.500> and
happened to be the year of my birth and
happened to be the year of my birth and
obviously<00:01:10.630> technology<00:01:11.630> had<00:01:12.320> existed<00:01:12.799> before
obviously technology had existed before
obviously technology had existed before
then<00:01:13.250> but<00:01:13.460> we<00:01:13.579> weren't<00:01:13.759> aware<00:01:14.090> of<00:01:14.150> it<00:01:14.390> and<00:01:14.600> so
then but we weren't aware of it and so
then but we weren't aware of it and so
it<00:01:14.780> was<00:01:14.899> sort<00:01:15.049> of<00:01:15.140> awakening<00:01:15.829> of<00:01:16.539> this<00:01:17.539> force
it was sort of awakening of this force
it was sort of awakening of this force
in<00:01:18.469> our<00:01:18.619> life<00:01:18.829> I<00:01:19.249> actually<00:01:19.700> did<00:01:19.999> research<00:01:20.450> to
in our life I actually did research to
in our life I actually did research to
fire<00:01:20.899> at<00:01:20.960> the<00:01:21.049> first<00:01:21.439> use<00:01:22.009> of<00:01:22.039> the<00:01:22.399> word
fire at the first use of the word

technology<00:01:23.030> that<00:01:23.539> was<00:01:23.659> in<00:01:24.189> 1829<00:01:25.189> and<00:01:25.549> it<00:01:25.850> was
technology that was in 1829 and it was
technology that was in 1829 and it was
invented<00:01:26.210> by<00:01:26.420> a<00:01:26.450> guy<00:01:26.719> who<00:01:27.380> was<00:01:27.409> starting<00:01:27.740> a

all the kinds of arts and crafts and
all the kinds of arts and crafts and
industry<00:01:32.869> and<00:01:33.079> he<00:01:33.469> called<00:01:34.369> it<00:01:34.520> technology<00:01:35.060> and
industry and he called it technology and
industry and he called it technology and
that's<00:01:35.359> the<00:01:35.840> very<00:01:35.990> first<00:01:36.139> use<00:01:36.649> of<00:01:36.679> the<00:01:36.859> word<00:01:37.030> so
that's the very first use of the word so
that's the very first use of the word so
what<00:01:38.210> is<00:01:38.420> this<00:01:38.929> stuff<00:01:39.259> that<00:01:40.159> we're<00:01:40.310> all
what is this stuff that we're all

have about what technology is it's all
have about what technology is it's all
that's<00:01:55.459> new<00:01:55.999> stuff<00:01:56.299> it's<00:01:56.719> not<00:01:56.929> roads<00:01:57.289> or
that's new stuff it's not roads or

penicillin<00:01:58.009> or<00:01:59.229> factory<00:02:00.229> tires<00:02:00.799> it's<00:02:01.249> it's
penicillin or factory tires it's it's
penicillin or factory tires it's it's
the<00:02:01.729> new<00:02:01.850> stuff<00:02:02.119> my<00:02:02.869> friend<00:02:03.109> Danny<00:02:03.319> Hillis<00:02:03.560> has
the new stuff my friend Danny Hillis has
the new stuff my friend Danny Hillis has
a<00:02:03.829> kind<00:02:04.249> of<00:02:04.310> a<00:02:04.399> similar<00:02:04.670> one<00:02:04.909> this
a kind of a similar one this
a kind of a similar one this
technologies<00:02:05.749> anything<00:02:06.020> doesn't<00:02:06.170> work<00:02:06.469> yet
technologies anything doesn't work yet
technologies anything doesn't work yet
which<00:02:08.390> is<00:02:08.509> again<00:02:08.929> a<00:02:08.959> sense<00:02:09.349> that<00:02:09.500> it's<00:02:09.679> all<00:02:09.770> new
which is again a sense that it's all new
which is again a sense that it's all new
but<00:02:10.280> we<00:02:10.700> know<00:02:10.880> that<00:02:11.060> it's<00:02:11.180> just<00:02:11.240> not<00:02:11.390> new<00:02:11.750> it's
but we know that it's just not new it's
but we know that it's just not new it's
it<00:02:12.290> actually<00:02:12.470> goes<00:02:12.800> way<00:02:13.010> back<00:02:13.190> and<00:02:13.400> what<00:02:13.580> I
it actually goes way back and what I
it actually goes way back and what I
want<00:02:13.849> to<00:02:13.940> suggest<00:02:14.060> is<00:02:14.300> it<00:02:14.480> goes<00:02:14.630> long<00:02:15.910> way<00:02:16.910> back
want to suggest is it goes long way back
want to suggest is it goes long way back
so<00:02:18.349> another<00:02:19.310> way<00:02:19.430> to<00:02:19.460> think<00:02:19.700> about<00:02:19.790> technology
so another way to think about technology
so another way to think about technology
what<00:02:20.450> it<00:02:20.540> means<00:02:20.750> is<00:02:20.930> to<00:02:20.960> imagine<00:02:21.380> a<00:02:21.440> world
what it means is to imagine a world
what it means is to imagine a world
without<00:02:21.680> technology<00:02:22.190> if<00:02:22.580> we<00:02:22.700> were<00:02:22.820> to
without technology if we were to
without technology if we were to
eliminate<00:02:23.240> everyone
eliminate everyone
eliminate everyone
a<00:02:24.060> single<00:02:24.600> bit<00:02:24.870> of<00:02:25.020> technology<00:02:25.530> in<00:02:25.709> the<00:02:25.740> world
a single bit of technology in the world
a single bit of technology in the world
today<00:02:26.280> and<00:02:26.370> I<00:02:26.430> mean<00:02:26.610> everything<00:02:27.360> from<00:02:28.020> blades

start to see climate change so climate
start to see climate change so climate
change<00:06:06.180> is<00:06:06.300> not<00:06:06.419> a<00:06:06.479> new<00:06:06.689> thing<00:06:06.719> what's<00:06:07.409> new<00:06:07.560> is
change is not a new thing what's new is
change is not a new thing what's new is
just<00:06:07.830> the<00:06:07.949> degree<00:06:08.189> it<00:06:08.430> was<00:06:08.610> even<00:06:09.360> during<00:06:09.479> the

technology is going we continue that
technology is going we continue that
trajectory<00:09:52.410> and<00:09:52.890> we<00:09:52.980> say<00:09:53.190> that<00:09:53.370> what's<00:09:53.520> going
trajectory and we say that what's going
trajectory and we say that what's going
to<00:09:53.850> become<00:09:54.150> more<00:09:54.360> energy<00:09:54.870> dense<00:09:55.020> that's<00:09:55.800> where
to become more energy dense that's where
to become more energy dense that's where
it's<00:09:56.310> going<00:09:56.520> and<00:09:56.910> so<00:09:57.150> what<00:09:57.300> I've<00:09:57.390> done<00:09:57.540> is<00:09:57.720> I've
it's going and so what I've done is I've

response to a bad idea is not no ideas
response to a bad idea is not no ideas
it's<00:13:38.290> not<00:13:38.319> to<00:13:38.499> stop<00:13:38.709> thinking<00:13:39.129> the<00:13:40.089> response

okay<00:13:46.480> so<00:13:47.170> better<00:13:47.679> ideas<00:13:48.220> is<00:13:48.549> really<00:13:48.610> always
okay so better ideas is really always
okay so better ideas is really always
the<00:13:49.569> response<00:13:50.019> to<00:13:50.439> technology<00:13:50.709> that<00:13:51.189> we<00:13:51.279> don't
the response to technology that we don't
the response to technology that we don't
like<00:13:51.610> is<00:13:51.819> basically<00:13:52.329> take<00:13:52.629> better<00:13:52.959> technology
like is basically take better technology
like is basically take better technology
and<00:13:54.249> actually<00:13:55.119> in<00:13:55.360> a<00:13:55.420> certain<00:13:55.660> sense
and actually in a certain sense
and actually in a certain sense
technology<00:13:56.709> is<00:13:56.829> a<00:13:56.860> kind<00:13:57.129> of<00:13:57.160> a<00:13:57.309> a<00:13:57.489> method<00:13:58.179> for
technology is a kind of a a method for
technology is a kind of a a method for
generating<00:13:58.569> better<00:13:59.049> ideas<00:13:59.439> if<00:13:59.980> you<00:14:00.100> can<00:14:00.220> think
generating better ideas if you can think
generating better ideas if you can think
about<00:14:00.429> it<00:14:00.610> that<00:14:00.730> way<00:14:00.910> so<00:14:01.720> maybe<00:14:02.319> spraying<00:14:02.709> DDT
about it that way so maybe spraying DDT
about it that way so maybe spraying DDT
on<00:14:03.309> crops<00:14:03.699> is<00:14:03.910> a<00:14:03.939> really<00:14:04.239> bad<00:14:04.389> idea<00:14:04.689> but<00:14:04.929> DDT
on crops is a really bad idea but DDT
on crops is a really bad idea but DDT
sprayed<00:14:06.009> on<00:14:06.160> local<00:14:06.579> homes<00:14:07.089> there's<00:14:07.869> nothing

good<00:14:16.269> job<00:14:16.480> for<00:14:16.749> technology<00:14:17.259> so<00:14:17.980> our<00:14:18.100> job<00:14:18.279> as
good job for technology so our job as
good job for technology so our job as
