technological world on occasion ok a

technological world on occasion ok a little bit more so I want to start with

little bit more so I want to start with

little bit more so I want to start with this slide because this is what we’re

this slide because this is what we’re

this slide because this is what we’re talking about we’re talking about this

talking about we’re talking about this

talking about we’re talking about this idea of how we as human beings create

idea of how we as human beings create

idea of how we as human beings create technology but how technology creates us

technology but how technology creates us

technology but how technology creates us in return

in particular I want you to kind of

in particular I want you to kind of think in the different ways in which you

think in the different ways in which you

think in the different ways in which you are creating technology and your

are creating technology and your

are creating technology and your identities have changed because for

identities have changed because for

identities have changed because for those of you who are alien in the

those of you who are alien in the

those of you who are alien in the audience if you visited a thousand years

audience if you visited a thousand years

audience if you visited a thousand years ago the human beings you would have

ago the human beings you would have

ago the human beings you would have encountered would have been completely

encountered would have been completely

encountered would have been completely different

different to those who you’re going to meet

to those who you’re going to meet

to those who you’re going to meet tonight and if you come back in ten

tonight and if you come back in ten

tonight and if you come back in ten years will be completely different again

and the process of how that happens

and the process of how that happens and what control we have about this

and what control we have about this

and what control we have about this process is I think one of the essential

process is I think one of the essential

questions of our rage today so this is

questions of our rage today so this is the main question that I’d like to pose

the main question that I’d like to pose

the main question that I’d like to pose how can we ensure not that we stay human

how can we ensure not that we stay human

how can we ensure not that we stay human human beings are always in flux but that

human beings are always in flux but that

human beings are always in flux but that we can retain and deepen our sense of

we can retain and deepen our sense of

we can retain and deepen our sense of what it means to be human over time and

what it means to be human over time and

what it means to be human over time and there’s a really interesting question

there’s a really interesting question

there’s a really interesting question here about why I proudly human right now

here about why I proudly human right now

here about why I proudly human right now if this is a process that’s been

if this is a process that’s been

if this is a process that’s been happening over millennia what are we
