how many of us have we dedicated for
at least some time to reflect on
what to do and what to study especially
some moment of our life who is
has asked that
okay
how many of us study the same
or are engaged in the same as their parents or
her grandparents
seems to have get some
people do not seem to make much sense
currently these kinds of questions if in
the reality and in the world in which we live
and is that playing with the children my
wife and I both very small indeed
the oldest of them four years what
I confess we had that horrible and
guilty thought that has all father
that will be dedicated when they are
big
It is difficult to know based on your
current interests of red dinosaurs
that are friends of frogs trains and
snakes
but previously it was not a decision
difficult the opposite was a
extremely simple decision to study
generation after generation of grandparents and
parents passed knowledge passed
technique and passed information to the about
the one that follows everything in a cycle during
long time
then even for over a thousand
years sailing with compass did not change
absolutely nothing we could
imagine sailors and traders
for a thousand years learning exactly
the same thing over and over during
the average age people lived according to
profession that had according to neighborhoods
then what has changed
because this has stopped working or
because this is not currently so
relevant
currently we have advanced enormously
in science, technology and innovation
probably this is nothing new
what is interesting is that it seems
to be seem a little more lost in
we look like that society that
we have lost a bit of direction in those
parts
and we do not know what it is or what to leave
following generations this idea this
captivating ideal regarding the lag of
science, technology and innovation
it seems quite enough is
ordinary all I can not see in
investigations I could see with my
students in the academy I’ve seen it with
my colanders younger collaborators
in a company that is dedicated to generating
technology and ultimately what
seen as a father lately with my
children
science technology and innovation
science we can understand science
like anything that helps us
understand why we make the
technology technology has
allowed to build cars
build our means of transport and
innovation innovation is in this
instrument that gives us the time I think
that this is these examples are extremely
simple and to understand for all said
we are extremely familiar with
they are not even experts
probably but we could say how
the car works how a car works
watch or even talk a little about
diseases and if we did this
Question two or three generations ago
I think the same audience would answer
the same
this is because we move in cycles
science , technology and innovation
move in cycles and not only that being
human moves in cycles the psoe the day
the night the governments are born fall the
companies grow economic crisis is
say there is a continuous cycle that pushes
who follows these are the patterns and they
have been doing for a
determined time
let’s take science technology and innovation
we can define science very
simple is all that knowledge that
go through a scientific method speak
taught since being school after that
practical knowledge becomes
technology
and later with a certain
time and used by all this technique and
this technology comes up something we call
innovation
the interesting thing is that the human being
all of us during the course of
history we have played a role
fundamental in each of them the
most events in history are
they could see well
[Music]
the family the teachers and the community
has generated knowledge that with the
time has not left it to students and
children
to professionals who give us this
technique later over time
business organizations and universities
have generated this innovation and so it
follow the cycle and we are generating one and
again in this way
but a few years ago
this does not seem to make much sense
let’s take earlier
there are two examples that can explain us
this engineering for more than 1400
years I do not change in your role the goal
main engineering that is
invent and build practically
master craftsmen carpenters have
been doing for a long time
later 150 years ago the
industrial engineering has followed the
same cycle
the study of medicine in two
Millennia did not change its purpose
fundamental to heal and save lives
almost to the beginning of the
modern medicine and the discovery of
penicillin in this great cycle like what
we saw everyone know what their
paper
the teachers knew exactly what
teach your students the parents of
family and the grandparents knew that they should
to transmit to the following
generations the people knew how
behave their means of work and is
say every part of the cycle was met
community family students all
some years ago this seems to have left
to have a lot of sense is to say science
technology and innovation began to
behave a little different years ago
and the role that historical role we had
we the people stopped having
meaning and that gave us a bit of
uncertainty and seemed to leave them a little
lost
and that is now the medical sciences
they seem to have the only goal is
make them live forever the
diseases begin to see how
simple technical flaws that can be
corrected with technology
we are in a race to build
things smarter than us that
in turn they can build more things
smart
we have democratized
totally knowledge until you have it
in the palms of our hand
the interesting thing is that we seem not to
distinguish what is real and what is not real
but the alarming thing is that it seems
care
in this part
more and more we are assisted by
intelligent software and hardware in
our work is extremely common and the
big question is not how smart
or how much that hardware is going to help us
and software at work the great
question is how are we going to collaborate and
understand each other with our new partner
that is no longer human
some years ago
a lot of means of
communication commented data scientist
it’s the race of the future we need a
large amount of data sciences
six years ago today this year some of
your media say no longer
we need more data agents in just
six years the first generations still
they are coming back and in six years
that important change is said and the
family seems increasingly distant this
historical role that the family of
train to deliver knowledge that
could serve practically for life
daily
this new cycle this we’re
currently living
it’s a bit disconcerting
the knowledge seems more transformed
in learning
I remember a few times if it’s not that
none where in an interview
work to a possible candidate there
asked the question of what did you study
but nevertheless I remember each one of
the occasions where I ask you can you
to learn
innovation and time advances
vertiginously for a long time
financial mathematicians and we the
economists we have made calculations every
more complex times and we learned it in the
school to understand the system
economic project a financial risk
or talk about monetary policy
Now all that can be done by a
intelligent algorithm less and less
we understand what this is about
algorithm or how that is working
algorithm
and the problems the problems advance
faster and faster than we could
deliver a solution on a global scale and
that’s how we have an island of garbage
plastic floating in the ocean with
greater chances of it
multiply that as a society as
great global village we could deliver
an answer
we live in a new cycle this cycle
is evolving and we have many
more questions than answers
we are definitely on a test of
Error connecting families again
schools and community with a new
learning because now it seems pretty
different the objective of science the
technology and innovation leaves us a
lot of challenges and new ways
to understand the different learnings
that is, we seem more and more to
we live a reality that leaves us great
uncertainty
but it is a reality that continuously
we are creating thanks
