起死回生的解藥/The Elixir of Revival | 王孜詠 Wang Tzu-Yung | TEDxMingdao HS Youth
這場 TED 分享的不是一段單純的軍校夏令營經驗,而是一段「思維翻轉」帶來的成長歷程。六週的美國軍校生活,從嚴格紀律到文化衝擊,都曾讓我感到挫折與懷疑。但在夥伴支持與自我調整下,我開始學會轉念:讓壓力成為推力,讓孤單變成與自己對話的契機。這段旅程讓我明白——當你改變看事情的方式,挑戰也會隨之轉化。真正的收穫,不只是技能,而是學會用正向心態面對人生。This TED talk isn’t just about a six-week summer camp at a U.S. military academy—it's about how a shift in mindset can transform a difficult experience into personal growth. The strict discipline and cultural differences once left me discouraged, but with support from friends and a willingness to reframe my thoughts, I learned to turn pressure into motivation and loneliness into self-reflection. This journey taught me that challenges change the moment we change our perspective. More than saluting or sailing, it was the beginning of learning how to face life with a positive and resilient mindset.我是王孜詠,一個對世界什麼都好奇、三分鐘熱度,但熱到會衝去美國軍校的人。身邊的人常形容我跳痛、叛逆、固執,因為只要有人說「你不要這樣做」,我大概就會立刻去試試看。從國樂玩到鐵人三項,再突然飛去軍校,大家都在問我:「你到底想幹嘛?」
老實說,我也不知道,反正就順其自然吧!這就是我為我的人生下的定義!去年暑假,在我仔細思考了整整三秒後,我和朋友決定在畢業隔天飛去美國軍校夏令營。結果,才剛到不到三小時,我們就開始偷偷製作逃跑計畫。
這場演講,我想和你們分享的不是我有多堅強,而是我怎麼在一個如此崩潰的環境裡,學會轉念、撐下去,最後笑著完成六週,然後——不捨地大哭著回到台灣。I’m Tzu-Yung Wang — endlessly curious, easily fascinated, and stubborn enough to go to a U.S. military academy just because someone told me not to. From traditional Chinese music to triathlons, then suddenly military training, people often ask me: “What are you trying to do?” Honestly, I don’t know — I just go with the flow.
Last summer, my friend and I joined a U.S. military academy summer program. Within hours, we were secretly planning our escape. Through this experience, I learned how to shift my mindset, persevere in a tough environment, and ultimately finish the six weeks smiling — even if I cried leaving.

- 12:30What if AI can help us fight organized crime and corruption? | Gian Maria Campedelli | TEDxGenevaOrganized crime undermines democracy and economic development across the globe. According to a recent report by the Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime, 80% of the world’s population lives in countries with a high presence of criminal organizations. When these organizations grow through corruption, fighting them becomes even more difficult.In this talk, computational criminologist Gian Maria Campedelli introduces a new approach that uses open data and machine learning to predict where—and when—criminal organizations in Italy are likely to infiltrate local governments. By revealing both the promises and the pitfalls of applying AI to the fight against corruption and organized crime, he invites us to imagine how modern technologies can empower citizens and help build a safer, fairer society. Gian Maria Campedelli is a Research Scientist at Fondazione Bruno Kessler and an incoming Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology and Social Research at the University of Trento, Italy. He earned his Ph.D. in Criminology from Università Cattolica in Milan in 2020 and received the Early Career Award from the European Society of Criminology in 2023. His research focuses on developing computational methods to study complex criminal phenomena. His interests include organized crime, corruption, violence, urban crime, and the risks associated with the emerging collective behavior of AI agents. He has published extensively in high-profile journals, including Science, and his work has been featured in outlets such as the Financial Times, The Guardian, The Economist, The Washington Post, and The Los Angeles Times.

- 14:22Considérations sur les peuples premiers des Antilles | Henry PETITJEAN ROGET | TEDxPointeaPitreIl avait réalisé que l'histoire des peuples indigènes des Antilles était en fait très mal connue du grand public et même des descendants avérés des Kalinagos des Petites Antilles et des Taïnos des Grandes Antilles. Pour cette raison, en accord avec l'organisation de l'évènement, nous avons opté pour un bref entretien basé sur une question et sa réponse. Notre but a consisté à structurer un bref discours pour transmettre des connaissances et réaliser l'importance de l'héritage culturel de ces peuples aux cultures traditionnelles antillaises. Son intérêt pour le passé indigène de la Martinique, puis plus tard, pour celui des Antilles, trouve ses origines dans la classe de Sciences naturelles du révérend Père Pinchon, l'un des fondateurs de l'archéologie des petites Antilles. Ses travaux ont particulièrement porté sur l'art céramique et l'art rupestre des peuples autochtones céramistes des petites et des grandes Antilles et leurs rapports avec ce que nous savons de leurs mythologies. Il travaille actuellement à une synthèse de ses travaux sur les Kalinagos, destinée à être publiée en anglais. Enfin, sa passion pour la transmission de savoirs l'a amené à écrire des contes pour enfants et adolescents.
