8 Things the Students of SIBM B are expecting from the Future | TEDxSIBMBengaluru 2019
·
“ "Empowering the individual”
The basis of any change within
society is the voice of an individual. The moment
we try to express our thoughts, we’re creating a strong resonance within and
around. A first-year student from SIBM B believes that an individual voice has
the power to do wonders, when the person is not hindered by the fear of
judgement passed by others. They believe that empowering the individual,
and encouraging each person to voice their view, will discourage herd behavior
and become the breeding ground for novel ideas.
· "On the entertainment front-
personalized entertainment for different people, an advanced version of Netflix,
VR becoming more common"
With every mode of
entertainment becoming more advanced each day, there have been more and more
advancements. With the emergence of interactive films like “Bandersnatch” which
was a recent revolution in Netflix-cinema, a new precedent has been set. It’s
not a big jump to expect something greater from the AI-Driven Entertainment
industry. With AI being prominent in every part of our life now, students at
SIBM B think that AI written Screen plays would do an amazing job at providing
entertainment. They envision a future where, one day, you get to book a flying
car on Uber!
· "Google or Elon Musk will come
up with a technology through which people can do apparition to avoid
traffic"
One of the most pressing problems in
any city is the problem of traffic. Now, imagine Google or Elon Musk thinking
of addressing this issue with the technological strategies at their fingertips,
they can devise another revolutionary technology. With so many advanced
technologies already in place, students of SIBM B think that day isn't very far
from reality.
· “World Peace, both for the outer
world and inner self”
Harmony is as vital to the world as
water is to a parched individual in a desert. It is the definitive ideal world.
It sounds inconceivable from our present perspective, and yet, at one time
traveling to space had seemed just as impossible, conveying a whole record
gathering in your pocket appeared to be unimaginable, things like YouTube, Wi-Fi
etc. had appeared to be outlandish. Students at SIBM B, believe the path to a
better future is paved with peace.
· “Involvement of technology leading
to a revolution in jobs”
Innovation has at no other time
assumed such a huge part in our lives. With technology growing in leaps and
bounds, it has been expected that there will be a revolution in the kind of
jobs performed by people. Just as Industrial Revolution had witnessed the
overture of previous status quo replaced with new careers, such a
transformation is expected to repeat.
· “Someone creating history in literature like
Charles Bukowski once did- bringing in fresh perspectives on life"
Literature is one of the most
wonderful instruments on earth that we get to witness, feel and experience.
Charles Bukowski is one such architect of literature who is admired by people around the world because of
his vision, which had brought in a new perspective on life. This famous quote
by him says it all.
“We
are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will
tremble to take us.”
Students at SIBM B are anticipating
another such great thinker in the future, as the perspectives of the world
change.
· “More of innovations than
Inventions, radical, Exponential growth”
Students at SIBM B think that we are
all too busy inventing and creating something instead of enhancing and
improving what has already been created, which could help in attaining growth
in different dimensions at various levels, boosting life to new heights. Think
further about the resources that can be saved upon focusing on innovation in
place of invention. That would cause a revolutionary change in every industry.
· “Creation of an education system
that would be more practical and impart life lessons”
Practicality is the key
to stability and survival. Thousands of students graduate from colleges with
dreams and hopes for a secure future. But what isn’t understood is that when
faced with situations we haven’t experienced before, it’s courage and resilience
that drives a person to success. Education should provide a training framework
for such qualities, building a strong moral foundation within students at a
young age which will shape great leaders of tomorrow.
This is what some of
the students of SIBM B expect of the future. TEDxSIBMBengaluru 2019 will be the
platform for further discourse on Future 2.O by speakers of great stature.
