i want you all to think about the third word that was ever said about you or if you were delivering about the person you were delivering and you can all mouth it if you want or say it out loud it was the first two were it's a girl boy

and i was confused does this make so gay does this make so straight i was getting sexual orientation confused with gender identity and my patient said to me look look look if you just think of the following you'll get it right sexual orientation is who you go to bed with gender identity is who you go to bed as

and some of them have been rearranged a little bit but it's all her and she's become a remarkable spokeswoman and she was offered contracts as a model at which point she teased me when she said you know i might have had a better chance as a model if you'd made me six feet one

625
well it shows you that i also deal with issues where there's not certainty of whether it's a girl or a boy so the mixed answer was very appropriate of course now the answer often comes not at birth but at the ultrasound unless the prospective parents choose to be surprised like we all were but i want you to think about...

now this is relatively rare so i had relatively little personal experience with this and my experience was more typical only because i had an adolescent practice and i saw someone age genetically female went through harvard with three male roommates who knew the whole story a registrar who always listed his name on cou...

i subsequently learned from the many adults i took care of about adults i learned from them that if i didn't peek as to who their partner was in the waiting room i would never be able to guess better than chance whether they were gay straight bi or in their affirmed gender in other words one thing has absolutely nothin...

you hook these up in this case to the virtual muscles of that two legged creature here and hope that it does something interesting at the beginning they're all going to be very boring most of them won't move at all but some of them might make a tiny step those are then selected by the algorithm reproduced with mutation...

so it was back to the drawing board for us we did get it to work eventually after tweaking a bit here and there and this is an example of a successful evolutionary run so what you'll see in a moment is a very simple that's learning how to walk using artificial evolution at the beginning it can't walk at all but it will...

generation and it'll take a few steps more still not quite there but now after generation it actually walks in a straight line without falling over that was the real breakthrough for us it was academically quite a challenging project and once we had reached that stage we were quite confident that we could try and do ot...

again a push now this time from the front and you see it falls differently and now from the left and it falls differently that was really exciting for us to see that that was the first time we've seen that this is the first time the public sees this as well because we have been in stealth mode i haven't shown this to a...

and that's a really fascinating thing about this approach now when we went to film studios and games developers and showed them that technology we got a very good response and what they said was the first thing they need immediately is virtual because stunts are obviously very dangerous they're very expensive and there...

you can see it's always reacting this is not a dead body this is a body who basically in this particular case feels the force and tries to protect its head only i think it's quite a big blow again you feel kind of sorry for that thing and we've seen it so many times now that we don't really care any more
1
644
this thing doesn't have a head i'm not quite sure why so this was not something we actually put in there he just started to create that dance himself he's actually a better dancer than i am i have to say and what you see after a while i think he even goes into a climax right at the end and i think there you go

this is a clip from a game called grand theft auto we already saw that briefly yesterday and what you can see is it is actually a very good game it's one of the most successful games of all time but what you'll see is that all the animations in this game are very repetitive they pretty much look the same i've made him ...

647
it also means that games aren't really going to be as surprising as they could be because you only get out of it at least in terms of the character what you actually put into it there's no real emergence there

648
and thirdly as i said most of the animations are very repetitive because of that now the only way to get around that is to actually simulate the human body and to simulate that bit of the nervous system of the brain that controls that body and maybe if i could have you for a quick demonstration to show what the differe...

if i push him from a different angle he'll react to it differently and that's because he has a physical body and because he has the motor skills to control that body it's a very trivial thing it's not something you get in computer games at the moment at all thank you very much chris anderson that's it that's it yes so ...

what we tried to do was teach a stick figure how to walk that stick figure is physically stimulated you can see it here on the screen so it's subject to gravity has joints etc if you just run the simulation it will just collapse like this the tricky bit is now to put an ai controller in it that actually makes it work a...

now this might look kind of trivial but it's actually very important because this is not something you get at the moment in any interactive or any virtual worlds now at this stage we decided to start a company and move this further because obviously this was just a very simple

653
i should add that it's very simple to add things like hair clothes etc but what we've done here is use a very simple visualization so you can concentrate on the movement now what i'm going to do right now in a moment is just push this character a tiny bit and we'll see what happens nothing really interesting basically ...

there is a median point between tiny rock and gigantic rock and in fact if any of you have ever been to near winslow arizona there is a crater in the desert there that is so that it is actually called meteor crater to give you a sense of scale this is about a mile wide if you look up at the top that's a parking lot and...

that's a great first step but what's the second step the second step is if we see one heading toward us we have to stop it what do we do you've probably heard about the asteroid if you haven't yet you will if you've heard about the mayan apocalypse you're going to hear about because you're keyed in to all the doomsday ...

you might think why don't we use a nuclear weapon well you can try that but the problem is timing shoot a nuclear weapon at this thing you have to blow it up within a few milliseconds of tolerance or else you'll miss it and there are a lot of other problems with that it's very hard to do but just hitting something that...

665
the problem is if you hit this asteroid you've changed the orbit you measure the orbit then you find out oh yeah we just pushed it into a keyhole and now it's going to hit us in three years well my opinion is fine it's not hitting us in six months that's good now we have three years to do something else and you can hit...

after the big macho bam we're gonna hit this thing in the face then we bring in the velvet gloves

a chunk of rock six miles across moving something like times the speed of a rifle bullet slammed into the earth it released its energy all at once and it was an explosion that was mind numbing if you took every nuclear weapon ever built at the height of the cold war lumped them together and blew them up at the same tim...

now this is not a wide crater but then again you can see the rock which is sitting right here about the size of a football that hit that car and did that damage now this thing was probably about the size of a school bus when it first came in it broke up through atmospheric pressure it crumbled and then the pieces fell ...

another rock came into the earth's atmosphere and this one blew up above the ground several miles up above the surface of the earth the heat from the explosion set fire to the forest below it and then the shock wave came down and knocked down trees for hundreds of square miles this did a huge amount of damage and again...

what can we do about this this is a potential threat let me note that we have not had a giant impact like the dinosaur killer for million years they're very rare the smaller ones happen more often but probably on the order of a millennium every few centuries or every few thousand years but it's still something to be aw...

is going to hit us and it's meters across so it would do unbelievable damage the good news is that the odds of it actually passing through this keyhole and hitting us next go around are one in a million roughly very very low odds so i personally am not lying awake at night worrying about this at all i don't think is a ...

the brain is an amazing and complex organ and while many people are fascinated by the brain they can't really tell you that much about the properties about how the brain works because we don't teach neuroscience in schools and one of the reasons why is that the equipment is so complex and so expensive that it's really ...
