My favorite Ted talk is a Tedx talk. It has has helped me and past classmates quite a lot. I still rewatch it before giving presentations.
The quality of the content sadly often matters very little in comparison to the manner of speaking and self presentation.
That was excellent
That's a very convincing TEDx talk. That guy surely knows his stuff, I'd go so far as to say he is a leading expert in his field.
There are legitimately valuable talks, like this one. As a format it's very good to deliver specialised knowledge in a concise, impactful way thing is you need to pay attention that people actually have something to say -- and that there's a good reason to put it in a concise format for a general audience. That's rarer than you think, thus you get tons of slop and platitudes. And TBH the only reason I know that talk exists is because SPJ is giving it, I was already over TED talks in general at that point.
I like Royal Society videos better nowadays. More science-y but less linkedin hype.
Wow what a hot take, is this 2012?
