my name’s Jo blight and I’m here to talk about how robots are gonna save your
about how robots are gonna save your
about how robots are gonna save your relationships now when I practice this
relationships now when I practice this
relationships now when I practice this at the weekend with my boy he’s six
at the weekend with my boy he’s six
at the weekend with my boy he’s six years old and I thought I need to make
years old and I thought I need to make
years old and I thought I need to make sure that he can understand what we’re
sure that he can understand what we’re
sure that he can understand what we’re going to talk about so when we sat down
going to talk about so when we sat down
going to talk about so when we sat down I said son I’m going to moderner
I said son I’m going to moderner
I said son I’m going to moderner I’m going to speak about robots to a
I’m going to speak about robots to a
I’m going to speak about robots to a city full of cars and innovation he’s
city full of cars and innovation he’s
city full of cars and innovation he’s robots robots fantastic can I have a
robots robots fantastic can I have a
robots robots fantastic can I have a robot I said
robot I said
robot I said Seve that’s the name of my boy Seve why
Seve that’s the name of my boy Seve why
Seve that’s the name of my boy Seve why do you want to robot tell me why you
do you want to robot tell me why you
do you want to robot tell me why you want to robot he says I want to robot
want to robot he says I want to robot
want to robot he says I want to robot because all my Lego is all smashed up
because all my Lego is all smashed up
because all my Lego is all smashed up and I need the robot to put the Lego
and I need the robot to put the Lego
and I need the robot to put the Lego back together and so I said to him son
back together and so I said to him son
back together and so I said to him son you don’t need a robot for that I can do
you don’t need a robot for that I can do
you don’t need a robot for that I can do it and he said daddy you too busy you’re
it and he said daddy you too busy you’re
it and he said daddy you too busy you’re only a laptop you’re on your mobile
only a laptop you’re on your mobile
only a laptop you’re on your mobile phone you haven’t got time you need a
phone you haven’t got time you need a
phone you haven’t got time you need a robot I need a robot to build the Lego
robot I need a robot to build the Lego
robot I need a robot to build the Lego now you’ll see why this is important in
now you’ll see why this is important in
now you’ll see why this is important in a moment because I’m I’m in digital
a moment because I’m I’m in digital
a moment because I’m I’m in digital that’s my work
that’s my work
that’s my work but actually I’m going to advocate a
but actually I’m going to advocate a
but actually I’m going to advocate a world of stopping the usage of the phone
world of stopping the usage of the phone
world of stopping the usage of the phone and embracing robots so we can get back
and embracing robots so we can get back
and embracing robots so we can get back to enjoying our relationships okay what
to enjoying our relationships okay what
to enjoying our relationships okay what I’d like to do I’ve shared a little bit
I’d like to do I’ve shared a little bit
I’d like to do I’ve shared a little bit of my story I’d like to get you guys
of my story I’d like to get you guys
of my story I’d like to get you guys involved now so if you could just get
involved now so if you could just get
involved now so if you could just get your mobile phone out and just hold it
your mobile phone out and just hold it
your mobile phone out and just hold it in your hand I’m going to ask a question
in your hand I’m going to ask a question
in your hand I’m going to ask a question and then when I ask it I want you to put
and then when I ask it I want you to put
and then when I ask it I want you to put your phone up if you think it’s true so
your phone up if you think it’s true so
your phone up if you think it’s true so the first question I have for you
the first question I have for you
the first question I have for you is one which is around second screening
is one which is around second screening
is one which is around second screening now second screening just for the
now second screening just for the
now second screening just for the definition it’s where you’re using your
definition it’s where you’re using your
definition it’s where you’re using your mobile phone and you’re watching
mobile phone and you’re watching
mobile phone and you’re watching television so good example I’m at home X
television so good example I’m at home X
television so good example I’m at home X Factor’s on can’t stand X Factor I’m on
Factor’s on can’t stand X Factor I’m on
Factor’s on can’t stand X Factor I’m on the phone okay watching the American
the phone okay watching the American
the phone okay watching the American football now I want to find out a few
football now I want to find out a few
football now I want to find out a few guys second screen so if you second
guys second screen so if you second
guys second screen so if you second screen put your hand up I want to see
screen put your hand up I want to see
screen put your hand up I want to see roughly what the audience is here so it
roughly what the audience is here so it
roughly what the audience is here so it looks like quite a large percentage
looks like quite a large percentage
looks like quite a large percentage probably the majority second screen now
probably the majority second screen now
probably the majority second screen now bear in mind what my son told me about
bear in mind what my son told me about
bear in mind what my son told me about time I think there’s a bit of a
time I think there’s a bit of a
time I think there’s a bit of a challenge there on society so my next
challenge there on society so my next
challenge there on society so my next question I’m going to follow up that I
question I’m going to follow up that I
question I’m going to follow up that I want you guys to also interact with is
want you guys to also interact with is
want you guys to also interact with is one which is around your your the top
one which is around your your the top
one which is around your your the top five people in your life the five people
five people in your life the five people
five people in your life the five people that are the most important to your life
that are the most important to your life
that are the most important to your life not the friends that you went to school
not the friends that you went to school
not the friends that you went to school with twenty years ago that you get an
with twenty years ago that you get an
with twenty years ago that you get an update and like because they’ve got a
update and like because they’ve got a
update and like because they’ve got a new cat the five people that really mean
new cat the five people that really mean
new cat the five people that really mean something to you now do you think the
something to you now do you think the
something to you now do you think the mobile phone has improved your
mobile phone has improved your
mobile phone has improved your relationships with the top five people
relationships with the top five people
relationships with the top five people in your life that’s a tricky one that I
in your life that’s a tricky one that I
in your life that’s a tricky one that I need to put your phone up if you think
need to put your phone up if you think
need to put your phone up if you think the mobile phone has improved now there
the mobile phone has improved now there
the mobile phone has improved now there are a lot of people that is yes because
are a lot of people that is yes because
are a lot of people that is yes because of connectivity so I just want to have a
of connectivity so I just want to have a
of connectivity so I just want to have a quick look around so let’s have a look
quick look around so let’s have a look
quick look around so let’s have a look has the mobile phone improved your
has the mobile phone improved your
has the mobile phone improved your relationships there’s a few but there’s
relationships there’s a few but there’s
relationships there’s a few but there’s not many of you and that’s kind of the
not many of you and that’s kind of the
not many of you and that’s kind of the nub of the issue that I want to talk
