Thanks to Innovation, the future is better than you think | Mohamed Saad | TEDxAsfi


I am very happy to be among you

today is moreover having this

privilege to open the decks

frankly than to call a package for

to open the ball in the country

dreams da it’s the best

consecration that I may have

so what am I going to propose to you

today is to say something

an exploration of all that is

innovation and technology is already

innovative enough in fact that to organize

this telex asfi we will see

I dream to talk to you about two big

we will say subject to the concerns

the first is the fall of

costs lowering the costs of the

technology and if we bring them together

today it’s thanks to the

technology and transported us and

we gathered together we allowed allowed us

to communicate together certain

people who are ten thousand

kilometers could visit asfi without there

put their feet here then this

lower costs already found a

first answer at gordon moore

so gordon moore for those who do not

do not know it’s the founder of

intel your computers are all

equipped with intel microprocessors

and contained in 1968 said that the

semiconductor performance is

expected to double every year while

remaining at constant cost

it’s extraordinary this court where

this golden ball law she is

always up to date

today so fifty years later

so whoever said better who did

better

it’s really kurt weill and novel

kurt weill is an engineer fitter

chief engineer of google

he was awarded and decorated by three

presidents of the united states he holds

something like twenty or so

honorary doctorates and him what is it

that he said we arrived at a

extraordinary conclusion is that

when you take when you take a

given field medicine for example

you endowed it with technology and

when these technologies has a

attribute information ie

she can deliver she can talk

information and data down this area in

whole medicine for example is brought

to double losses

manse and stay at constant cost and

if it’s not going down, we’re going

see a number of examples then

to illustrate that when you buy

a car I give you a few

examples you buy a car your

car it has a capacity

in your say his 290 horsepower din or

horsepower or 240 or 300 horsepower din

in technology we measure its thanks to

giga watts so gigabytes for gigas and a

billion and flops these fleets to

pricing points this weekend it’s the

number of comma operations

floating per second

ll see that between 1961 gold today the

gigaflops cost this in 1961 this

cost $ 8.3 billion

today it costs 800

so that’s to tell you the fall

dizzying in 55 years of gigaflops

other little example you all have between

your hands toys ‘smartphones’

iphone samsung no matter then

what you have in your hands is

equipment with 120 gigaflops

and if you come across a machine to

go back in time to 1984 for example

remember it was just yesterday a

jo de los angeles said aouita nawal

moutawakil mans two first

Moroccan gold medals 1984 your

smartphone would have cost 5 billion

dollars I say well billion 5

billions of dollars that’s

extraordinary three other small

examples in this same register then

the 3d printers today in japan

buildings are built thanks to

3d printers

we saw them 4 5 years ago ben no

didier 3d printers dated 30 days ago

years old and already 30 years ago and cost it

300 thousand dollars

today could find some in the

trade less than 200 dollars

robots too

that makes it more like

science fiction no there are a dozen

of years a robot cost 500 thousand

dollars

today could be found at 22

thousand dollars so another example

uplifting

it’s the sequencing of the genome it’s

the sequencing of dna in medicine

in biology research that’s

extremely important because that

allows to classify the species but

also to find protocols a

number of pathologies said

hereditary or genetic

the first time we did the

sequencing of the genome in 1981 this has

cost 3 billion

today it costs $ 1,000 and

united states shaped teenagers of

13 14 years to do it is

extraordinary then my second big

worry it’s a match you

I propose to play between

abundance and rarity scarified

brain to hold the score then

abandonment that why because

today a number of two

messages that sends us the mass

media on a map of who is black on

will communicate about the wars on

the writing on soak on a certain

a lot of information actually like that

that they blacken the table then

let’s look in terms of quality of life

over the last 110 years one hundred and ten

years the common man among us

today lives better than kings the

emperors or the burghers of there is a

thousand years then longevity has

double

the cost of food has been

divided by ten the average income per

capita has tripled the cost of

electricity was divided by 10

the cost of communication has been

divided by 10 the cost of transportation has

been divided by 100 it’s for you

to say that we live in a world

better

however our education system and

of training is bankrupt and that’s

where the raf t will point without aim of

legalization

our training systems and

of education were screened on

the west and the scientific organization

from the work on terrorism from the beginning

of the 1900s that’s why we

are bankrupt we have always formed

the financier as we did on the

203 100 last years are

concerned about development in the

world of finance

we also trained the manager of

human resources on a something

which has nothing to do with the management of

humans

we also trained geniuses are funny

holds and designates electrician on the

how to manage water and energy are

to teach them what mother

nature and mother earth willing and

bursting with possibilities and

resources and this is where I want to

pay tribute to two great

personalities

peter diamond and raymond kerviel again

once he who launched a

university in the United States very

precisely at silicon valley this

university that is not certified

by the US state but that form

their students about the innovations that

will impact the world of tomorrow their

motorcycles their motto

you have it before you it impacts

positively 10 billion people

over the next ten years a

billion people out of the ten

coming years

this extraordinary then the abundance in

the world of photography today at a

number of people who took

photos today it costs 0 la

years old band whose picture i think eastman

kodak you know it all will buy

kodak film in time and

took it to are lacking

today kodak is in the process of

disappear and value them at 178

millions of dollars

then keynes your g is valued at 30 7

billion dollars snap pussy is

valued at $ 25 billion

snap pussy did today both

youngest billionaires including the world

who are the two founders of snapshot

so for those I’ll tell you

a little anecdote that happened to our

buddies four months ago he was

traveling to south america so

to clear his jet lag so his shift

schedule he’s going to drink a coffee

my first starbucks he crosses so

he goes to the barista orders are

what did the husband do

question how are you calling yourself

sir in classically the boyfriend

meet skates and the bet face registered

low on the goblet then they in

laugh at our boyfriend and take a picture

it’s the picture playing in front of you and the

balloon on the social networks they

do not send by whatsapp communication

viral and he tells us next time

called myself better than

so we laughed a few weeks

later I read an article on the net

which actually develops is technical

at the baristas of starbucks was

wanted actually they do not laugh these

people it’s wanted it’s industrialized

has become professional than distort

Your first name

because they know will take it in

photo and swing it on the networks

social

and it will increase their notoriety and

their promotion and so message again

subliminal every time we are

somewhere we are going to go to

have a coffee at starbucks

second example on the management of

the picture and the picture then we have

managed to bring x fi imagine

that tomorrow I have in appendix we have a

starbucks followed then I will take

my coffee I order my coffee I

pay I’m served I’m going to settle

to see my coffee

so I taste it has a bad taste a

infamous taste throw what so I take

in photo I balance it on the networks

social I post it on the fanpage of

starbucks and infamous Thursday cafe that is

what happens

just in the moment you have this

that we call algorithms

demon programs that turn 24

hours out of 24 who will scrutinize

the picture that will infer that there is a

starbucks logo obviously on the

photo there is also the GPS coordinates

and so we will know that this photo ap ta

taken at starbucks is empty

the algorithms that do the analysis

semantics will know that infamous coffee

is a negative message then these three

information will go up to the center of

data from starbucks and will go down

automatically snapshot at

baristas and the manager of starbucks asfi

who returns his client still seated

by all this happens in fraction of

second the customer still seated and

so the manager can ask for his

excuses replace the coffee or maybe

anticipated that this will happen with

other customers

what I am trying to do

develop it’s what’s called the

big data and so that would never have been

to arrive with the photos of yesteryear on

paper or on cardboard and so here’s in

does what abundance in a certain

number of industry can bring

so this abundance she will reach her

paroxysm in a few years because

that today we are two

billion people to access

internet by 2020

we will be 5 billion thanks to two

big projects the google one of which

google

the project and is titled buckling and

facebook’s the project is titled

facebook jaws these two giants

today they are in the process of

work to connect the world

full internet to later full

last one said

access to the internet as right

fundamental

so my favorite goes to his device

what is called

qualcomm trail rope peter diamond est

what I was talking about earlier on

head of a foundation called x

prize has launched a competition with

from a price of ten million dollars to

the team of researchers of computer scientists

and doctors who will arrive tomorrow

to diagnose a number of

pathologies

thanks to this equipment that has the

size of a smartphone so tomorrow we

will diagnose something like

the year missive arterial relationship

tequilla rhytme lung diseases

chronic bronchitis diabetes

leukocytosis hepatitis a rap from the

top the avc tuberculosis infection

urinary so all this will be tomorrow

diagnosed through a smartphone

it’s amazing he can also do

a number of screenings

cholesterol screening of the AIDS of the

hyper and ipo thyroid then so

you are a hypochondriac buy

two or three of perpignan is one who

breaks down then on to compare

indicators it was a valve

had to laugh scherwey

no seriously nan seriously

think of all those places in the world where

the number of doctors is insufficient

reported to the population

it is extraordinary then in this same

order of ideas abundance including solar

you know that all consumes everything

that we consume in one year of all

kinds of energy confused the brown the

natural gas the thermal nuclear

the solar itself all consumes in

a year is only 80% of what

absent the earth in an hour in terms

of solar energy so the future is

still radiant so here I want to

to actually salute our country Morocco to

head to his head his majesty that

god glorifies him in this in this

big turn to go to the solar

knew that the stations nour

of today on what that must

develop something like 500 82

megawatts hour we come from

exceeded on the star in california is

with 579 megawatt hours we are

just behind cam tools is

one that splits 648 megawatt-hours but at

term the north projects are going

develop something like 2000

megawatt hours then like the

ying and yang

I can not talk about solar without

talk long and know that people 14

February 1990 the engineers of NASA

we asked them to send

instructions to probe traveling roanne

in the space that was 6

billions of kilometers to take a

photo of the earth this beautiful photo has

been baptized countries of heavy date

it means that in space the earth

is seen as a drop of water

extraordinary makes the potential of which

overflows our planet in terms of

water resources then another

inventory raki inventor to whom I want

greet the invention today it’s

dean kamen know that today we have a

an American American gentleman who has

invented the equivalent of a mini bar that

allows to produce drinking water to

from any water source

so the technology used on

Calls compression distillation

of steam and he can walk this

equipment can walk

for example thanks to cow dung

like as fuel then last

example we’re going to laugh know that tomorrow

it will be impossible for us to lie

you are having an application on

your smartphone that develops a

technology that brings together what we

calls for facial recognition of

artificial intelligence algorithms

and speech recognition analysis

it’s amazing what’s going

bring whose relationship

interpersonal of men between them

then banned os x men our efforts are going

rush for cowardice

commercials you have to turn 7

in the mouth before your client I

believe that for politicians must

change job

so last year I had given

a presentation at unesco in paris

which is titled when Africa gets

wake up the world will shake

that’s where I want to pay tribute to

this big big continent because 70%

of the population in Africa

under 25 years and that’s why

that my message is to invest in

innovation in technology for

channeling actually the effort of this

youth

Thank you
