How wonder and rigor lead to results | Natalie Nixon | TEDxBerkshires
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:29
Last Thanksgiving day, I accidentally swam from the island of NeAs to the island of St. Kits. Now, in all honesty, just to clarify, I could have swam it as a relay, but I forgot that that was an option.I was on the island of Neas specifically at Wall-E Beach for a swim holiday with a a group called Swim Trekk. And the span of of of water between NeAs and St. Kits is about four kilometers.It's like two and a half miles. And the cool thing is that you can see the bottom of the sea the entire way. And there's ...

If My Neighbor is Unwell, Then So Am I | Dr. Jennifer Lemacks | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:29
The north star that guides the direction of my work is a single phrase. If my neighbor is unwell, then so am I. And I'm here to advance the idea that our blue economy must include human health at its center.For strong coasts are built by strong, well people. When we hear blue economy, we think about energy, innovation, and technology tied to our oceans. It sounds like opportunity.It's the future. When we talk about it, we talk about marine biology, robotics, artificial intelligence, and eco-friendly materia ...
Mindset Matters: Takings Your Thoughts Captive | Jenna Hope Harris | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:29
[music] [applause] Your thoughts shape your leadership. Leadership shapes communities and communities shape the future. Your mindset is your greatest leadership asset and it needs to be recognized as such.Recent brain imaging from Queens University found that we have over 6,000 distinct thoughts a day. And that's just during our waking hours. They tracked changes in brain activity to measure when our minds shift from one thought to the next.That's hundreds of mental shifts every hour, whether we notice them ...
Where Workforce Meets Water | Dr. Courtney Taylor | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:29
Thank you. The blue economy is surging, but its workforce is drastically underbuilt. As Mississippi's workforce strategy leader, I've seen firsthand how our system fails to produce enough of the workers that we need in the trades and the blue economy and beyond. It's time to build a new model, a model that supports what we need more of and encourages our institutions to produce that.We've got to decide on what that is, though. I argue that our education and human capital infrastructure needs an infusion. We ...
AI for Ocean Health | Pappu Jha | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:28
Thank you. Every day, miles off the coast, illegal fishing boats harvest tons of seafood unchecked, unnoticed, and unregulated. At the same time, harmful algal blooms continue to spread across water, threatening marine life and human health.The question is, how do we even begin to protect something as vast and dynamic as the ocean. Good afternoon everyone. My name is Papuha.I am an undergraduate junior majoring in computer science at the University of Southern Mississippi. I am working as an information tec ...
The Big Lie About Smarter AI Models
Matthew Berman· 2025-12-19 17:28
I have a lot to talk about in this video and it all starts with this article from the information. How open AI's organizational problems hurt Chad GPT. And I'm going to be answering a broader question.Does model improvement matter all that much anymore. What I mean is when we continue to see these incredible gains on the common benchmarks, the science benchmarks, the math benchmarks, do these gains actually matter. I'm going to make the case that no, they don't for the vast majority of use cases.And if you' ...
Food safety in the blue economy | Jessica Rankin | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:28
The blue economy, it is not just about ports and policies. The blue economy is about families. It's about generations of families that have worked time and time again to build this beautiful economy.A vital piece that we here on the coast feel a closeness to is seafood. Seafood is intertwined with so many aspects of our daily lives. Think about your community celebrations.Everybody's probably been to seafood festivals, crab festivals, oyster festivals, or your family celebrations. You go to seafood boils. T ...
Infinite Blue | Dr. Leila Hamdan | TEDxSouthern Miss
TEDx Talks· 2025-12-19 17:28
You've been listening all day to reflections on the blue economy that have been filtered through the perspective of experience and personal truths. And in my time on this beautiful planet, I've come to know a few personal truths of my own. The first is that oceanography is my highest calling. The second that poetry is my greatest ease. And the third is that blue and a very specific shade of blue is my favorite color.These are conventional tropes, unoriginal, it's true. Of the 6,000 thoughts any oceanographe ...
