ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Juan Enriquez - Futurist
Juan Enriquez thinks and writes about the profound changes that genomics and other life sciences will bring in business, technology, politics and society.

Why you should listen

A broad thinker who studies the intersections of these fields, Enriquez has a talent for bridging disciplines to build a coherent look ahead. He is the managing director of Excel Venture Management, a life sciences VC firm. He recently published (with Steve Gullans) Evolving Ourselves: How Unnatural Selection and Nonrandom Mutation Are Shaping Life on Earth. The book describes a world where humans increasingly shape their environment, themselves and other species.

Enriquez is a member of the board of Synthetic Genomics, which recently introduced the smallest synthetic living cell. Called “JCVI-syn 3.0,” it has 473 genes (about half the previous smallest cell). The organism would die if one of the genes is removed. In other words, this is the minimum genetic instruction set for a living organism.

112749
3009
不過這又表示,例如這酒吧的畫面,
02:07
take a picture圖片, say, of this guy right here,

02:31
[Company公司 sold出售 to FacebookFacebook的, June六月 18, 2012...]
45
139891
2663
[ 2012 年 6 月 18 日,Facebook 收購了這家公司]
02:34
There are other companies公司 that will place地點 a camera相機
46
142554
2653
有的公司也會放個
02:37
like this — this has nothing to do with FacebookFacebook的
47
145207
2423
這樣的相機 – 完全與 Facebook 無關 –
02:39
they take your picture圖片, they tie領帶 it to the social社會 media媒體,
48
147630
2312
拍下你的照片後,再置入社會媒體,

they figure數字 out you really like to wear穿 black黑色 dresses禮服,
49
149942
2127

2436
這時候店員可能會走過來跟你說:
02:46
"Hey, we've我們已經 got five black黑色 dresses禮服
51

02:55
[In the future未來, everybody每個人 will be world世界 famous著名 for 15 minutes分鐘.]
55
163428
1844
[在未來,人人都會是十五分鐘的名人。]
02:57

02:58
What if you're only going to be anonymous匿名 for 15 minutes分鐘? (Laughter笑聲)
57
166378
4681
變成 [你只能默默無聞十五分鐘]? (笑聲)
