Are you prepared to succeed in the post AI world?
As technology continues to evolve, it is clear that AI and automation will cause dramatic shifts in how people work. The narrative today is "staff augmentation". The reality tomorrow may be "staff replacement". While we have seen this happen before on shop floors and supply chains, this next revolution is likely to replace workers in the knowledge economy. What, then, are the required skills for thriving in a post-AI world? Join this session with Dr. K. Subramanian, as he shares lessons from the past, their implications for the future, and a playbook for how to build a successful and sustainable career in the modern economy. Specifically, we will discuss:
How technology and AI will shift which skill sets are valued in a modern workforce
How to enhance technical know-how with a holistic approach to problem solving, called "System Thinking"
Creating your playbook for building transformational skills that will be valued today and enhanced by AI in the future

COP26 Explained: High Hopes, Hard Truths & Future Pathways
Nuclear fusion is always ten years away
I know it sounds crazy, but the key to sustainable fusion is in space inside O Neil Cylinders. The main preface for that is you can use HUGE Flywheels as large as the Cylinder itself that are as as efficient as any solid state Capacitor, and you can use their size and speed to provide the necessary energy to keep that much energy coming into the system to sustain it. To have fusion go for that long and be sustainable, it’s almost like your fusion plant has to be the size of a coffee cup, and you have to have Niagara Falls behind it (your Solar Cells and multiple flywheels that are as big as a torus station themselves) Once you have that much energy behind it , you can have laser (and and use other oscillating waves) for fusion, with either a sphere or cylinder itself that rotates to have about 30 or 50,000 feet of water to get heated. - that will essentially act as a Dyson sphere, but Significantly Smaller with Solar cells and hot water at the surface (either in pipes or geysers- one or the other) With that Dyson sphere or cylinder rotating, you can have the water and air stick to the walls and convection can work as normal. - with laser fusion in that way, you can have plasma, then you can have superheated air, then superheated water, and then you can go outward because you have that much space. It’s all about scale, and you need a cylinder That big in order to do it. My Name is Michael Skinner, and it’s the only way you can have sustainable fusion that’s efficient enough - Do what you want to do on the big scale, just smaller scale. On the interior of that smaller scale cylinder wheel, you can have a planetary gear set up to help provide the waves that you need, besides being their own gearbox (efficiency through size and scale) Only issue is, that would be one heck of a big whirlpool
Thank you Dr. Lustig. Too bad about the audio. Captions:)
Experiments works but don’t know the mechanisms: am I correct ?
You guys need to fix the sound
I read both Metabolical and FAT Chance..two great, educational books by Dr. Lustig. Must read if you are trying to reverse insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, on ketogenic lifestyle, and Intermittent fasting. Thank you Dr. Lustig, you are saving lives. 😊
Sound sucks.
Petrochemical lobbyists success
Standing ovation. ❤
Love Dr. Lustig's energy and courage in facing down the industrial food industry- he has taught me so much. But I hope Dr. Lustig will begin to include data on hormone deficiencies in women to describe the fat shift from subcutaneous to visceral in women with the loss of estrogen through ovarian senescence from a physiologically healthy level to zero. Sleep, bone, brain deprivation equals severe stress to the body.
4:01 start❤
I've watched almost all videos with Dr Lustig. This one is very interesting. ❤
OK, it has been 8 years, so where are we now?
what a great webinar! a powerful narrative by Prof.dr. lustig on how damaging upf is! thank you, Dr. Lustig for sharing your knowledge and insights with the worldwide public. kind regards, miss Reimara
well, we recently achieved fusion energy
useless sound
Ha Ha Ha . . . . . . 😂😂. The end of cheap oil is over first. ❤❤
Deuterium is still restricted
Well, after watching, I'm surprised i'm first. I'm a carnivore, but I research widely. Dr Lustig is a fount of knowledge.
I agree!... quitting meat is much easier than quitting sugar!!
@@daytime12 I'm not sure I follow you. There are many good reasons to quit sugar, but I don't see any good reasons to quit meat?
@@aivkara pardons! I'll clarify. I agree with your comment about Lustig being a fount of knowledge. Me, cutting out sugar for 3 weeks caused my waist to decrease an inch or more and possibly other health benefits, I'll have to see. I found that quitting sugar was much more difficult than quitting meat ( to my surprise) I quit meat to see if it would give me a competitive edge in cycling. I quit meet for 7 years while cycling 125 miles a week and in the weight room doing 3 10 or 15 reps of 650 lbs on the leg press, also managed a 45.6 mph cycling sprint, on a Los Angeles highway all while not eating meat... None! Today I sparingly eat meat and fish... But when I did not eat meat I noticed 3 things. 1. No big difference in athletic output. 2. My bowel movement smell was much more mild. 3. My food bill for the month decreased.
I'm nowhere near as active as you are, granted, but think about the mechanisms involved here. If quitting a substance is difficult, that probably means it is addictive, at least that's how I view it. Are you in ketosis?, at least partially, while doing this level of exercise?
Check out an interview with Dr. Anthony Chafeee and a guy who did five marathons on five consecutive days, while in a fasting state. I will find the name shortly and post it, but consider what he is saying
Sound quality is atrocious, for an insitute of technology you should be ashamed. Even a first year student sholud do better than this!s
🎶 *promosm*
It would be much easier to put more effort into cleaning up fossil fuel ..
This is a very interesting presentation to listen to in 2024. A lot of the graphs would look comical in how conservative they were. Anyway, I wish Professor Emanuel had presented some of the info based on CO2e. Well, this was a pretty good presentation save the 'solutions'.
7 years ago not true, and still not
Have salt and sand batteries back the grid, in the regenerative grid theory concept. That way, costs drop for electricity across the board, and hydrogen becomes a more easily recognized best option as curves adjust.
Metal powders as fuels, sand batteries, brick batteries, along with nuclear power, could provide the thermal energy streams for solid oxide hydrogen production, as well. Let's experiment a bit.
Use wider pipes for hydrogen. 1 ton per pipeline kilometer per day, is the basic heuristic for profitability. Everything has been figured out elsewhere. This isn't really all that hard. Cash in.
Why don’t people his multiple lies? He is funded to keep promoting scare tactics. He leaves out the evidence that co2 does not drive climate change
This is silly propaganda. There is no such thing as a "greenhouse" gas. All gasses are part of atmospheric warming/cooling.
Get your levels sorted, it's not a good advertisement for an institute of technology to have such poor technical standards. Some of the speakers are far too quiet and I' on 100% volume already
Disgusting filth
This is crazy
this is not proper research - Research the works of any of the professors Judith Curry, Steven Koonin, Don Easterbrook, Andy Knoll, John Christy, William Happer, Patrick Moore, Richard Muller, Murray Salsby, Richard Lindzen, Robert Carter, Ivar Giæver, John Clauser and 20 000 others with PhD and engineering degrees in relevant sciences ( and any of the more than 20 Norwegian professors PhD doctors and professionals in all the relevant fields - ( people that I have either met, read or conversed with online.)
You know you’re at a climate conference not a science conference when: -they introduce the speaker mentioning his political party affiliation -the only experimental (as opposed to correlational) data that the speaker has to show is hard proof that all of his fellow climatologists agree with him -the speaker thinks that physics and physicists have nothing to contribute to the study of a physical system like climate.
Corruption is eating us.
Most of our allies and partners are dependents.

Winds a joke
According to the measures taken by Exxon Mobile and other companies, CO2 emissions have fallen dramatically but temperature is still rising. It's the sun that's causing global warming!

Can't use ocean water for industrial machines.
Excellent overview of the basics of the science - well done and well presented. He gets the main point across that the underlying Maths and Physics is really incredibly simple and easily understood while the detailed modelling of all the more nuanced regional complexity patterns are so incredibly complex and challenging - but in a manner that really does little to change the simplistic overview of the problems. He did not get into the weeds of the Red Herring whataboutisms so artfully used by the paid propagandists who keep trying to hoodwink the general populae into believing it is all a nothingburger - other to suggest that it is a problem of posychology and neuroscience (one of beliefs) and not one of actual climate science or the models. I notice some comments still trying to push the arguments made and the basics outlined off into the weeds - but I hope few people get dstracted by such easily debunked "complexification and obscurantist" myths? The CO2 is good for you thingy being one of the tricks being used and trying to devallue the simple Greenhouse Gas effect results merely another attempt to distract and displace attention. Professor Kerry did a good kob stating quite simply that increasing CO2 - from a crop yield perspective - is a rather mixed blessing. Yes - increased atmospheric CO@ leads to greening - unfortunately greening alone is a mixed bag as it comes with hugely amplifying the growth and spread of noxious and invasive weeds as well as hugely amplifying the severity and ubiquity of toxic algal blooms in rivers, lakes and estuaries globally leading to eutrophication of our most productive hydrological ecosystems - which I really do not need to point out as a huge detrimental effect on ecosystem health. There are pluses and minuses in all things that change - but no one is served when the Machiavellian only point to the few pluses while ignoring the many serious minuses... He did a great job here however i feel the perennial unbelievers out there will be reluctant to let go of their Magical Thinking (consciously adopted of subconsciously acquired?) even when such a bright flashlight has been shone on the simple basics and fundamentals.
"Model constructed from data matches data beautifully"... What a surprise!
Osmand needs to educate himself about cholesterol, he could start by watching this video: 'Understand Your CHOLESTEROL PANEL & Metabolic Health Tests - The ULTIMATE Guide | Dr. Robert Lustig'
LOL they call OpenAI a research organisation. Today they call it a company. It tells you all you need to know about OpenAI and their mission,... it has been abandoned.
The whole point for these guys and their financial backers is to make gobs of $$ gain power. The fact these guys are so socially awkward is scary if they at some point wield life altering power over others.
What about the inflammatory effect of high carb and high refined sedd oils in processed foods as a cause as described in Dr Chris Palmer's book 'Brain Energy'?
