I feel like the bar is extremely low for TED talks these days. But maybe it has just changed to a financial one instead of an intellectual one.

TED talks have been absolute garbage for years, just corporate shilling and mindless pandering.

Even back in the days when TED talks were good, I remember learning a lot of cool new ideas that they made seem on the verge of tomorrow, that never materialized.

Fuck TED talks.
