I don't think that will happen soon.

By making these partnerships that I described to you,

I'll just show you some of the experiments.

I conceived of that as my job.

You know, I don't think Jason's realized even half of what he's going to be.

Then I thought about the craziest idea of all the ideas

I know for a fact that that is ridiculous.

I think about it in this really scientific way of measuring my impact, and this shows that it's possible.

There's something sacred about a space where you can work on a project, and you don't have to justify to anyone that it's going to make a lot of money, that it's going to save mankind, or even that it's feasible.

That's the quest.

So maybe the idea I want to put out there is not so much overcoming adversity as it is opening ourselves up to it, embracing it, grappling with it, to use a wrestling term, maybe even dancing with it.

(Laughter)

Hope is here. Yes we can.

It's fully possible that everyone can make it to the healthy wealthy corner.

When I first moved here,I thought I'd just,you know,figure out what I was good at.

And there's all sorts of intangible assets that you might amortize.

This was in 2004 at that time, this was something really, really revolutionary.

Because you're trying to blow up, you're trying to get to the next level

In the case of design, that means balancing desirability, what humans need, with technical feasibility, and economic viability.

I'm limited by the technology of my time.

Turns out it was capable of expressing emotions beyond the ability of words.

So you can see in a system like this there was enormous subtle potential of representing human emotions.

Leaves energy decisions to individual choices.

Create a space for an office, a space of sustainability that really works between that virtuality and yet can be realized as something real.

It means we have a good chance.

This is the number of different assignments of bits to certificates of this size.

We're seriously looking into that possibility, yes.

This leads to an important distinction in computer science between what's possible versus what's possible in a reasonable amount of time.

Plants need water and nutrients.

So this is the question my students and I wanted to get at.

How do we inspire ourselves to greatness, when nothing less will do?

( dramatic theme playing )

It's not possible?

It's possible.

If you eliminate the impossible, what ever remains, however improbable... must be the truth.

Last year, I told you the story, in seven minutes, of Project Orion, which was this very implausible technology that technically could have worked, but it had this one year political window where it could have happened.

This raises the very real possibility of anonymous war.

So my thinking here is that we try to motivate those kids to start driving home ideas.

So that's not the scenario that we're talking about.

Are you sure, Doctor?

What if he's moving the safe as a diversion?

Possible target for terrorists?

Does that happen?

This Wendy person, she has the diamonds?

I don't have enough time to get 5 rabbits.
