Every discovery that changes the world begins with a bold question.

每一个改变世界的发现， 都始于一个勇敢的问题。

At 16, Albert Einstein wondered: What would happen if we could catch up with the speed of light? This seemingly naive question played a key role in the development of the theory of special relativity.

 

In the 2000s, when most researchers in the field of computer vision focused only on refining their models, Fei-Fei Li, who was then a PhD student, posed a radical question: Can we make AI learn to understand the world, much as a child does, by recognising objects? This paradigm-shifting approach led to the creation of ImageNet and propelled the development of deep learning, and Fei-Fei Li later became a world-renowned professor of computer science at Stanford University.

 

When studying poverty, Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, two MIT professors, moved beyond grand theories. They asked simple, but pointed questions such as “Why do impoverished families prioritise buying televisions?” Their micro-level perspective pioneered groundbreaking methods in experimental economics, and they later received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2019, for their approach to alleviate global poverty.  

 

Architect Zaha Hadid defied traditions with a simple challenge: Why must buildings always be rectilinear? Her fluid designs redefined humanity’s perceptions of space.

 

All these breakthroughs that transformed fields began with daring questions that broke with conventions. When young people start asking questions, the future gets a new algorithm!

 

16岁的爱因斯坦曾想象：
如果人类能够追上光速，会看到怎样的景象？这个看似天真的思考，却对他创立狭义相对论起到了关键作用。

 

在2000年代，计算机视觉领域长期只关注模型优化时，尚在攻读博士学位的李飞飞提出：能否让 AI 像儿童一样，通过理解物体来理解世界？这个创新的思路直接推动了ImageNet的创建，打开了深度学习的闸门，而李飞飞也已成为享誉世界的计算机科学教授。

 

经济学家阿比吉特·班纳吉和埃斯特·迪弗洛在研究贫困问题时，没有停留在宏大理论，而是提出具体问题，比如：为什么贫困家庭会优先购买电视机？他们从微观视角出发，开创了实验经济学领域的新方法，并因其缓解全球贫困的创新路径，最终荣获2019年诺贝尔经济学奖。

 

建筑大师扎哈·哈迪德亦挑战传统：建筑为何必须方方正正？她充满流动感的设计，彻底改变了人们对空间的认知。

 

这些改写各自领域规则的突破，始于一个敢于打破常规的提问。当年轻人开始提问，未来就拥有新的算法。

In today’s rapidly-changing world, we more than ever need the courage to ask questions. Complex issues, such as climate change, AI ethics, and cultural identity, all demand fresh perspectives from a new generation. That’s why TEDxYouth@YCYWShanghai chose “DARE TO ASK” for its 2025 theme.

 

今天，面对快速变化的世界，我们比任何时候都更需要这种提问的勇气。气候变化、人工智能伦理、文化认同……这些复杂议题需要新一代人提出新的思考角度。

 

这正是TEDxYouth@YCYWShanghai将2025年度主题定为”DARE TO ASK”的原因。

 

On 14 June, let's gather—with thoughtful questions—for a collective exploration of ideas!

6月14日，让我们带上问题， 共赴一场集体思辨！
