When Doreen Orishaba helped build Africa’s first electric car in 2011, skeptics dismissed it as a “toy for the Western world.” Now she’s running dozens of electric buses across Kenya and Rwanda, moving thousands of passengers to work every day on zero-exhaust vehicles powered by near-silent engines. She breaks down what it actually takes to scale clean transport — and why skipping the gas station pit stop is closer than you may think.

2011年，多琳·奥里沙（Doreen Orishaba）巴参与制造非洲第一辆电动汽车时，质疑者称其为“给西方世界玩的玩具”。如今，她在肯尼亚和卢旺达运营着数十辆电动公交车，每天用近乎静音的发动机驱动零排放车辆，搭载成千上万的乘客通勤上班。她剖析了推广清洁交通究竟需要什么——以及为什么跳过加油站这一站，可能比你想象的要近。

In the 19th century, Scottish surgeon James Braid revolutionized the field of hypnotism, transitioning the practice towards inducing a sleep-like state. Today, hypnosis is used in psychiatry as a helpful medical tool, yet it still holds an entrancing place in popular fantasy. So, is there any truth to what it can accomplish? Or is it just illusion? Devin Terhune explores the power of suggestion. [Directed by Leah Putnam, narrated by Addison Anderson, music by Stephen LaRosa, Wonder Boy Audio]. 

在19世纪，苏格兰外科医生詹姆斯·布雷德（James Braid）彻底改变了催眠术领域，将这一实践转向诱导类似睡眠的状态。如今，催眠在精神病学中被用作一种有益的医疗工具，但它在大众幻想中仍然占据着迷人的位置。那么，它能实现的效果究竟有几分真实？还是说这不过是幻觉？德文·特胡恩（Devin Terhune）探索了暗示的力量。

What if the solution to feeding humanity has been hiding in the soil for millions of years? Bioengineer Karsten Temme discovered a remarkable answer to this question: for eons, crops relied on soil microbes to convert atmospheric nitrogen into food — until modern farming severed that ancient partnership. He shows how we can reawaken those dormant microbes using gene editing, creating “living fertilizer” that delivers nutrients to crops in real time and transforms farms around the world.

如果养活人类的解决方案，已在土壤中潜藏了数百万年之久，会怎样？生物工程师卡斯滕·泰默（Karsten Temme）发现了一个引人注目的答案：亿万年来，农作物一直依靠土壤中的微生物将大气中的氮转化为养分——直到现代农业割断了这一古老的合作关系。他向我们展示了如何利用基因编辑技术重新唤醒那些休眠的微生物，制造出“活体肥料”，实时为作物输送养分，并由此改变全球各地的农场。

Choosing to marry and share your life with someone is one of the most important decisions you can make in life. But with divorce rates approaching fifty percent in some parts of the world, it's clear we could use some help picking a partner. In an actionable, eye-opening talk, psychiatrist George Blair-West shares three keys to preventing divorce -- and spotting potential problems while you're still dating.
选择与某人结婚并共度一生，是人生中最重要的决定之一。然而，在世界上某些地区，离婚率已接近百分之五十，显然我们在挑选伴侣方面还需要一些帮助。在这场可行且发人深省的演讲中，精神病学家乔治·布莱尔-韦斯特（George Blair-West）分享了预防离婚的三个关键方法——以及在恋爱阶段就能发现潜在问题的技巧。
作者兼精神病学家布莱尔-韦斯特从事伴侣治疗已有25年。他致力于通过探索长期健康关系如何启动与构建，来预防离婚带来的深层痛苦和广泛负面影响。通过研究那些以不同程度浪漫之爱开启的成功关系，我们可以获得所有伴侣都能用以建立持久关系的洞见。他尤其感兴趣的是理解和定义“真爱”——区别于浪漫之爱——正是这种爱支撑着具有韧性的关系。他在2022年的TEDx演讲中进一步阐述了这些洞见在现代关系中的掌握与应用。
布莱尔-韦斯特的写作与演讲生涯始于关于自杀和抑郁症的科学论文发表，这使他于1998年成为纽约科学院的终身成员。随后他发表了通俗文章和五部著作。《探索之路》一书探讨了他对如何在生活中寻找个人意义与人生目的的兴趣，该书在励志小说类中获得了多个奖项。《如何做出你人生中最重要的决定：解锁健康持久关系的秘密》一书由他与女儿——约会教练吉文尼·布莱尔-韦斯特合著，该书以其2017年关于避免离婚的TED演讲为基础，深入剖析了导致关系破裂的三个主要因素。
布莱尔-韦斯特与结婚35年的妻子佩妮（心理学家）居住在澳大利亚布里斯班，育有两个成年子女。

Lead poisoning robs the world's kids of millions of IQ points a day and kills more people than wars, natural disasters and road accidents combined — yet we treat it as a problem we've already solved. Drew McCartor, who runs the nonprofit Pure Earth, has spent nearly two decades proving it doesn't have to be this way. He presents their three-step fix that's already working in places from Georgia to Ghana, and makes the case that we can finally beat a crisis hiding in plain sight. (This ambitious idea is part of The Audacious Project, TED’s initiative to inspire and fund global change.)

The idea that depression comes from a chemical imbalance in the brain has shaped treatment for decades. Neuroscientist Lisa Monteggia shares research suggesting that's not the whole story — and shows how a decades-old drug could upend what we thought we knew about depression, with the potential to offer relief within hours.
“抑郁症源于大脑化学物质失衡”这一观点，几十年来一直塑造着相关治疗方法。神经科学家丽莎·蒙特吉亚（Lisa Monteggia）分享的研究表明，这并非故事的全貌——她还展示了某种已有数十年历史的药物如何可能颠覆我们对抑郁症的既有认知，并有望在数小时内缓解症状。

When was the last time you just ... played? Creative health scientist Katina Bajaj thinks adults are in a "play deprivation crisis," where we've replaced our fun-loving human nature with optimization and efficiency.

Humans aren't just social — we're ultrasocial, wired like bees and ants for deep connection. So what happens when smartphones take over childhood, tablets replace textbooks and AI companies infiltrate our kids’ lives? Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out three principles of technoskepticism — and explains why, two years after sounding the alarm in "The Anxious Generation," he's more concerned (and hopeful) than ever before.

深度科技企业家D.斯科特·菲尼克斯（D. Scott Phoenix）多年来一直致力于人工智能的研发——如今，他相信我们正站在人与机器深度融合的前沿。他借助演化生物学的视角重新构建了关于人工智能的讨论，将问题从“我们应畏惧还是拥抱AI”转变为“如果走错方向，我们是否真正理解其中的利害关系”。他提出了一个颇具争议性的主张，阐述为何我们需要“吃掉AI”。

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。

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？
