We are back together again.
1
311508
3303
05:14
English addict is with you once more.
2
314895
2853
05:17
And it's ever so nice to be with you once again.
3
317748
3937
05:21
I hope you are feeling good today.
4
321768
3154
05:29
I I'm in the mood and
5
329209
5556
05:34
we are back live.
6
334848
3520
05:38
It is true.
7
338452
1368
05:39
A very, very alive at the moment.
8
339820
3003
05:43
Hi, everybody.
9
343006
1351
05:58
You see,
10
358989
1001
05:59
I wasn't going to do that because I was told that I shouldn't say Happy New Year,
11
359990
5639
06:05
but I did anyway, because I'm a very, very naughty man once again.
12
365712
5639
06:11
Hi, everybody. This is Mr.
13
371384
2436
06:13
Duncan in England. How are you today?
14
373820
2719
06:16
Are you okay?
15
376539
1051
06:17
I hope so.
16
377590
1685
06:19
Are you happy?
17
379275
968
06:20
I hope you are feeling good.
18
380243
1335
06:21
Don't forget to send me a link
19
381578
2652
06:24
and yes,
20
384230
2453
06:26
it is the final time that I can say Happy New Year.
21
386683
3937
06:30
So I thought I would start by saying Happy
22
390703
2620
06:33
New Year 2024 has arrived.
23
393323
3286
06:36
How was your first ten days of the New Year?
24
396626
4888
06:41
Has it been a good one so far or has it been
25
401597
3270
06:44
a load of rubbish for those wondering?
26
404951
4287
06:49
Mr. Steve is not with us today.
27
409238
1685
06:50
In fact, he is not even here in the building.
28
410923
4121
06:55
He sadly has gone to a funeral today.
29
415128
3953
06:59
One of his work colleagues sadly passed away about two weeks ago.
30
419115
5555
07:04
So sadly Mr.
31
424754
1284
07:06
Steve has gone to a funeral.
32
426038
1919
07:07
He is on his way back.
33
427957
2986
07:10
Of course, we always keep in touch with each other.
34
430943
3304
07:14
Whenever Steve and myself are apart,
35
434330
2753
07:17
we always make sure that we stay in touch.
36
437083
4504
07:21
It is one of the most wonderful things
37
441671
2852
07:24
about living in this modern age.
38
444523
3003
07:27
Have you noticed how amazing everything is?
39
447560
4237
07:31
And the only reason why we have all of these
40
451881
2335
07:34
wonderful things is because of change.
41
454216
3854
07:38
Things are always changing.
42
458137
1902
07:40
Things are always moving forward.
43
460039
2252
07:42
They are progressing.
44
462291
1885
07:44
They are going in a certain direction.
45
464176
4304
07:48
It is fair to say that we can only go forward.
46
468547
4071
07:52
It is not good to start going back
47
472701
3587
07:56
because then maybe other problems will come along.
48
476388
4872
08:01
That is what we are talking about today, by the way.
49
481343
3420
08:04
We are talking about change, the change of things, progress.
50
484763
5723
08:10
And of course, I suppose at the moment one of the main reasons why are mentioning this today
51
490486
5005
08:15
is because a lot of people are talking about
52
495491
5739
08:21
artificial intelligence
53
501313
1835
08:23
and the way the world is changing.
54
503148
3003
08:26
And over the past few days I've been reading
55
506268
3270
08:29
some new stories about certain
56
509538
3270
08:32
companies, certain organisations
57
512891
3637
08:36
that have started using artificial
58
516611
2920
08:39
intelligence more and more.
59
519531
3537
08:43
In fact,
60
523151
2169
08:45
it has got so bad or so frequently used
61
525320
6390
08:51
that now they don't need human beings to work for them.
62
531793
3737
08:55
So in certain cases humans have become
63
535597
5055
09:00
not obsolete, not quite.
64
540735
3304
09:04
So when we say that something is obsolete,
65
544122
2636
09:06
we normally mean that it is no longer required.
66
546758
3854
09:10
So at the moment we still need human beings burps.
67
550695
5823
09:16
In some cases,
68
556601
2286
09:18
the requirement
69
558970
1502
09:20
for lots and lots of people to do a certain thing has reduced.
70
560472
4971
09:25
So you might say that over time,
71
565510
3704
09:29
fewer humans are required to do a certain task.
72
569297
6256
09:35
But there is one thing
73
575620
2552
09:38
that will not change as far as I am concerned.
74
578172
4388
09:42
Don't forget, I am not a I,
75
582644
3787
09:46
I am not a machine because there is no substitute
76
586497
4288
09:50
for a real human being.
77
590868
3003
09:53
So I am with you.
78
593871
1135
09:55
I don't think in the near future there is any chance of me
79
595006
5672
10:00
being replaced by a machine.
80
600762
2769
10:03
So don't worry.
81
603531
1251
10:04
Maybe in the future we will be able
82
604782
3120
10:07
to have me embedded in a machine.
83
607902
4388
10:12
So it will still be me.
84
612406
3287
10:15
Sadly, this lovely body will no longer be around.
85
615760
3553
10:19
But perhaps.
86
619397
2102
10:21
Maybe
87
621499
2819
10:24
part of me will live on in the machine.
88
624318
3704
10:28
But for the time being, don't forget it.
89
628089
3286
10:31
I am not I.
90
631459
2269
10:33
I am not a machine.
91
633728
3003
10:36
There is no substitute for a real human being.
92
636797
5172
10:42
It's true.
93
642052
1719
10:43
We have the live chat.
94
643838
1751
10:45
hello, Live chat.
95
645589
1218
10:46
Nice to see you here.
96
646807
1452
10:48
Thank you very much for joining me today.
97
648259
2419
10:50
I am taking the risk once again.
98
650678
2552
10:53
I am broadcasting in high definition,
99
653230
4722
10:58
full, high definition today.
100
658035
2853
11:00
Mr. Duncan, Fancy pants.
101
660888
2786
11:03
Very nice.
102
663674
2402
11:06
Who was first on today's live chat?
103
666076
3554
11:09
very fast with your finger.
104
669713
2786
11:12
You are definitely at the top of the list today.
105
672499
4255
11:16
Beatrice.
106
676870
9293
11:26
Congratulations to Beatrice.
107
686230
2552
11:28
Guess what?
108
688782
567
11:29
You are first on today's live chat.
109
689349
2469
11:31
It's nice to see you here.
110
691818
1852
11:33
Can I just mention there are live captions
111
693670
4672
11:38
so you can have captions underneath
112
698408
3554
11:42
this thing I'm doing at the moment.
113
702045
3554
11:45
They are live, so don't forget there will be a slight delay,
114
705682
4171
11:49
but you can activate the captions and have them underneath
115
709853
5522
11:55
if you are having difficulty understanding what I'm saying.
116
715459
4020
11:59
But why would you? Because my English is so clear.
117
719479
3637
12:03
It is so precise, it is so relaxing to listen to.
118
723200
5972
12:09
And those aren't my words, Those aren't my personal comments.
119
729189
5238
12:14
They are the comments of you out there
120
734511
2986
12:17
watching in the world of YouTube
121
737530
4038
12:21
today, we are looking
122
741651
1068
12:22
at the future things that might happen in the future.
123
742719
4037
12:26
Some people are afraid of the future.
124
746840
3003
12:29
Some people feel worried about what will happen in the future.
125
749843
5555
12:35
I suppose when we look at events, we normally
126
755482
2869
12:38
look at things that are happening now
127
758351
3437
12:41
to try and work out what will happen in the future.
128
761871
5489
12:47
So I suppose that is one of the reasons why
129
767443
3003
12:50
people are getting so worried or concerned
130
770563
4388
12:55
about artificial intelligence,
131
775034
2886
12:57
because it is still relatively new
132
777920
3938
13:01
and I still think that many people don't quite understand
133
781941
4354
13:06
how it works or what it means.
134
786379
3370
13:09
However, I over the past couple of months
135
789832
3504
13:13
have started using certain types of AGI
136
793336
4037
13:17
to design my thumbnails
137
797440
3887
13:21
and also to design all of the things that appear
138
801410
3721
13:25
at the bottom of the screen.
139
805214
2970
13:28
So that is the reason why lots of things have changed slightly on my livestream
140
808184
5739
13:33
because I am using other types of technology
141
813923
4204
13:38
to design those things and it is very useful.
142
818210
5256
13:43
However, because it is new, because all of these things have just come along over the past 12,
143
823549
7441
13:51
maybe 18
144
831073
1685
13:52
months, people have been talking about A.I..
145
832758
3670
13:56
I suppose people are a little wary
146
836512
4621
14:01
or cautious.
147
841216
2753
14:03
Wary. I like that one.
148
843969
2319
14:06
If you are wary of something, it means you are not sure
149
846288
5856
14:12
you don't want to go near that thing too quickly.
150
852227
4088
14:16
Maybe you are slightly nervous about that particular thing.
151
856398
4688
14:21
You are afraid you are worried, you are wary,
152
861170
5372
14:26
you are suspicious of that particular thing.
153
866625
5722
14:32
Can can I say hello to Vitesse?
154
872431
2352
14:34
Vitesse, You were in second place today with your finger.
155
874783

2119
16:23
How are things? Are you still on your travels?
194
983441
3069
16:26
Because the last time you spoke, you were on your travels and you were travelling around.
195
986510
7341
16:33
But what about today?
196
993851
1718
16:35
Where are you today?
197
995569
1052
16:36
Patrick We could, I suppose we could start a new feature
198
996621
5021
16:41
here.
199
1001709
1385
16:43
Where in the world are you?
200
1003094
3586
16:46
So some people do like to travel around.
201

202
1009333
3754
16:53
and also I think Vitesse likes to travel
203
1013170
4221
16:57
and also Christina likes to travel around.
204
1017458
4571
17:02
So maybe we could start a new thing.
205
1022112
2219
17:04
If you are travelling to different places
206
1024331
3470
17:07
and you are watching my livestream whilst you are travelling, please let me know.
207
1027868
5105
17:12
That would be ever so nice.
208
1032973
2770
17:15
I am a returning viewer, says Asma.
209
1035743
4771
17:20
Thank you very much, Asma, and it's great to see you back.
210
1040597
3571
17:24
It is good to know that all of this
211
1044251
5439
17:29
has persuaded you to come back
212
1049773
2586
17:32
and join in again, so it's always nice.
213
1052359

17:37
Angele Hello, Angelic.
214
1057397
3003
17:40
Now I recognise your name.
215
1060601
3887
17:44
Angelic?
216
1064571
1735
17:46
Have you been here before?
217
1066306
2753
17:49
Have you watched me before?
218
1069059
2169
17:51
Because I think I used to have
219
1071228
2919
17:54
a viewer
220
1074231
1468
17:55
who used to join us on the livestream many years ago called Angelic.
221
1075699
5555
18:01
So are you the same one?
222
1081338
1701
18:03
Have you rediscovered me?
223
1083039
2286
18:05
A lot of people think I've finished.
224
1085325
2035
18:07
A lot of people think I've stopped doing this.
225
1087360
2770
18:10
Can you believe it?
226
1090130
1284
18:11
There are people who think I have quit.
227
1091414
3003
18:14
There are some people who think I'm dead, but I'm not.
228
1094618
2919
18:17
I'm here, so don't worry.
229
1097537
2703
18:20
Yes, I am still here
230
1100240
3336
18:23
doing this, which is always a nice thing when you think about it.
231
1103660
4237
18:27
I always like to have a smile on my face in the morning whenever I wake up.
232
1107981
4888
18:32
I like to smile at the world around me
233
1112869
3637
18:36
and feel ever so nice and glad
234
1116589
3404
18:40
that I get to see another day.
235
1120059
4155
18:44
Angelic says It is not my real name.
236
1124297
3921
18:48
I am Angelina.
237
1128218
2919
18:51
Angelina.
238
1131137
1802
18:52
But the question is,
239
1132939
2519
18:55
did you used to
240
1135542
867
18:56
watch me in the past or is it your first time?
241
1136409
3003
18:59
Please let me know.
242
1139629
2719
19:02
I'm very interested to find out.
243
1142348
2052
19:04
Christina says Artificial intelligence can be useful in certain aspects,
244
1144400
4838
19:09
but it must not replace humans.
245
1149322
5188
19:14
And I would agree with that.
246
1154594
2369
19:16
There are many things
247
1156963
2469
19:19
that are being talked about at the moment, many new things,
248
1159432
6206
19:25
artificial intelligence is one.
249
1165721
3704
19:29
But also, I suppose we can't forget space travel as well.
250
1169509
4821
19:34
A lot of people talking about that.
251
1174330
2369
19:36
There was a mission
252
1176699
3003
19:39
to the moon, which I believe this week had some problems.
253
1179919
4671
19:44
I think they were sending a small probe.
254
1184590
3270
19:47
Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep to the moon.
255
1187927
2185
19:50
And I think things went wrong with that.
256
1190112
3937
19:54
Who else is here?
257
1194133
901
19:55
I will say hello to a couple of more people because I don't want to forget you.
258
1195034
4471
19:59
You see, I can't because I will get into a lot of trouble.
259
1199505
4538
20:04
I think that might be everyone.
260
1204126
1769
20:05
Thank you very much.
261
1205895
1418
20:07
It's very kind of you to join in today.
262
1207313
2986
20:10
So we are talking about changes, things that can alter,
263
1210332
3821
20:14
things that might be different, things
264
1214236
4004
20:18
that sometimes change
265
1218307
3036
20:21
because of various reasons.
266
1221343
3120
20:24
Quite often the reason is progress,
267
1224463
4204
20:28
and that is the subject we are talking about today.
268
1228851
4020
22:19
It is English, how to act, and we are here live on.
269
1339994
5088
22:25
Yes, we are here on Wednesday
270
1345149
2619
22:27
and I hope you are feeling good.
271
1347768
3604
22:31
I hope you are having a good Wednesday, wherever you are in the world.
272
1351455
5256
22:36
Thank you very much to everyone who has said hello.
273
1356794
4104
22:40
Don't forget you can chat live right now if you want to say anything.
274
1360915
6156
22:47
Anything.
275
1367138
1084
22:48
Imagine something you've always wanted to ask or something you've always wanted to say.
276
1368222
6440
22:54
Now you have the chance to do it right here
277
1374729
4821
22:59
live on YouTube in front of everyone.
278
1379617
4604
23:04
Today we are looking at words and phrases
279
1384305
2903
23:07
connected to change from the things we do now
280
1387208
4904
23:12
to maybe things that might be done in the future.
281
1392196
4888
23:17
That is normally how things work.
282
1397084
3003
23:20
When we talk about history, when we look back in time,
283
1400120
3504
23:23
we can always see that things were different.
284
1403841
5172
23:29
So whatever it is we are talking about, we can see that
285
1409079
4421
23:33
those things were done in a different way.
286
1413500
3687
23:37
But why were they different?
287
1417271
3003
23:40
Well, the reason is simple, because over time,
288
1420357
4104
23:44
the way those things were done changed and that is what we are talking about today.
289
1424528
5622
23:50
A lot of people worry about the future.
290
1430234
2435
23:52
We worry about what might happen
291
1432669
3270
23:56
in the future as things change.
292
1436023
3970
24:00
But really,
293
1440077
1534
24:01
to be honest, quite often there is no need to worry
294
1441611
5106
24:06
and I might explain a little bit more about that
295
1446800
3203
24:10
today as we go on.
296
1450120
3370
24:13
So when we talk about change,
297
1453573
1719
24:15
we often talk about progress.
298
1455292
3837
24:19
Progress.
299
1459212
1468
24:20
When we talk about progress, we are talking about moving forward.
300
1460680
4572
24:25
So as you move, you might also change the way you do things.
301
1465335
6790
24:32
And this word can be used in more than one way.
302
1472208
2636
24:34
Of course, we can progress as a verb.
303
1474844
4855
24:39
You are moving forward and of course progress or progress
304
1479699
5773
24:45
because it can be pronounced in more than one way
305
1485555
3003
24:48
can mean just advancing.
306
1488591
4238
24:52
Things are changing.
307
1492912
1852
24:54
Quite often things are being changed in
308
1494764
3837
24:58
some particular way.
309
1498718
3003
25:01
Maybe the way we do a certain task, maybe the way we carry out
310
1501871
4872
25:06
a simple everyday way action
311
1506859
4055
25:10
progress is how we often describe it.
312
1510997
4655
25:15
We talk about progress, of course, it doesn't
313
1515652
2986
25:18
necessarily mean that it is positive.
314
1518638
3703
25:22
Quite often we might say that progress could be negative,
315
1522341
4572
25:26
but generally speaking, we do use
316
1526979
3120
25:30
this particular phrase positively.
317
1530099
3821
25:34
You progress, you move forward.
318
1534003
3337
25:37
We always like to think as human beings.
319
1537423
4021
25:41
We always like to think that we are moving forward.
320
1541444
3253
25:44
Quite often we like to think that we are improving living in some way.
321
1544780
5489
25:50
So I don't think it is unfair to say that progress
322
1550353
5238
25:55
is quite often a positive thing
323
1555658
4638
26:00
is another interesting word.
324
1560379
1552
26:01
When we talk about progress or change,
325
1561931
3336
26:05
we talk about innovation to innovate,
326
1565351
4571
26:10
to move forward with ideas.
327
1570005
4638
26:14
Or maybe you come up with something new,
328
1574710
4004
26:18
maybe you come up with a new idea.
329
1578797
3337
26:22
So quite often innovation can refer
330
1582218
3002
26:25
to something new, such as an invention.
331
1585387
4305
26:29
Something you have invented is a new innovation.
332
1589775
5372
26:35
It is a new thing, the way of doing something.
333
1595230
4522
26:39
So not only is it maybe a device that has been invented or created,
334
1599818
6557
26:46
or even modified, many things that we have used for
335
1606458
3904
26:50
years have changed in some way.
336
1610362
4538
26:54
In fact, I can't think of many things that haven't changed in
337
1614983
3854
26:58
some way over the centuries or even over the last hundred years.
338
1618837
7040
27:05
I suppose there is one thing toilet paper,
339
1625961
2536
27:08
when you think about it, toilet paper has hardly changed at all.
340
1628497
4804
27:13
It's still the same the way we use it,
341
1633301
4155
27:17
the way it is sold, the way we store toilet paper.
342
1637539
4638
27:22
So really it hasn't changed all that much when you think about it.
343
1642394
5288
27:27
But generally speaking, most things have in some way.
344
1647766
4571
27:32
Most things have changed and quite often
345
1652420
2670
27:35
we will use innovation,
346
1655090
3670
27:38
we will invent new things.
347
1658827
3186
27:42
We will create things that can do
348
1662013
3654
27:45
other tasks or other things more efficiently or better
349
1665917
3771
27:49
in some way.
350
1669688
4104
27:53
How about evolution?
351
1673858
3737
27:57
Mr. Duncan.
352
1677679
801
27:58
Now there is an interesting word that can be used in
353
1678480
3286
28:01
quite a few ways and in many contexts as well.
354
1681850
4437
28:06
So when we talk about evolution, we are talking
355
1686371
3069
28:09
about the change of a particular thing.
356
1689440
3187
28:12
It will alter in some way quite often over time.
357
1692710
5522
28:18
So evolution can refer to change.
358
1698316
4738
28:23
Maybe the way we improve things, we make things work
359
1703054
5022
28:28
better, things become more reliable.
360
1708159
3754
28:31
Maybe one particular device
361
1711996
3420
28:35
or tool is able to do something better
362
1715633
4688
28:40
or something in a slightly more convenient way.
363
1720388
3620
28:44
We talk about evolution.
364
1724091
2987
28:47
We all we also talk about evolution in the sense of the animal kingdom as well.
365
1727144
6574
28:53
A lot of people think of evolution as positive change.
366
1733801
4771
28:58
Things improve.
367
1738572
2369
29:00
Not always.
368
1740941
1769
29:02
Some things might be pushed aside,
369
1742710
2469
29:05
some things might fade away because of evolution.
370
1745179
6089
29:11
So the way in which we do things
371
1751352
2285
29:13
can change through evolution.
372
1753637
3154
29:16
As we talk about changes that are made to certain things.
373
1756841
7273
29:24
So I suppose it is fair to say that change is
374
1764198
5255
29:29
gradual, gradual.
375
1769536
3187
29:32
When we say that something is gradual, it means it is slow,
376
1772806
5022
29:37
it is happening slowly.
377
1777911
4054
29:42
So most change.
378
1782049
1468
29:43
Change does happen gradually,
379
1783517
4021
29:47
It happens slowly.
380
1787621
2669
29:50
So imagine going up a hill.
381
1790290
2770
29:53
Imagine climbing hill and you go up gradually.
382
1793060
5338
29:58
You slowly go up the hill.
383
1798482
3403
30:01
You climb the hill gradually.
384
1801969
3937
30:05
So many types of change can also be described as gradual.
385
1805989
7591
30:13
It happens over time,
386
1813664
3370
30:17
I suppose you've noticed, especially if you are the same age as me.
387
1817117
5606
30:22
If you are the same age as myself,
388
1822723
3937
30:26
you know how old I am.
389
1826743
1385
30:28
Don't ask.
390
1828128
1051
30:29
Don't you dare ask how old I am because you know already.
391
1829179
5922
30:35
Don't try to embarrass me, please, Bert,
392
1835168
3554
30:38
If you are of a certain age like myself,
393
1838889
3770
30:42
you will have seen many changes.
394
1842742
3938
30:46
So I grew up in the 1970s.
395
1846763
4771
30:51
During the 1970s, things were.
396
1851618
2569
30:54
Were quite different.
397
1854187
1935
30:56
Especially when we talk about things like technology.
398
1856122
3537
30:59
We did have things like television.
399
1859743
2736
31:02
We did have radio.
400
1862479
2402
31:04
And I suppose towards the end of the 1970s,
401
1864881
3470
31:08
computers were becoming more common
402
1868351
4238
31:12
and people were starting to discover
403
1872672
2586
31:15
how convenient the computer is.
404
1875258
3253
31:18
So that happened during the 1970s.
405
1878578
2669
31:21
However, it would also be fair to say that computers were around during the 1950s
406
1881247
6740
31:28
and also 1960s doing various things.
407
1888071
3503
31:31
The only problem was the technology, or should I say the hardware
408
1891574
6523
31:38
could not be made small.
409
1898181
2969
31:41
So you needed a very large computer
410
1901150
3787
31:45
to do very simple tasks.
411
1905021
2836
31:47
So I suppose that is one of the biggest changes that has taken place.
412
1907857
4304
31:52
When we talk about technology, e.g.
413
1912161
2786
31:54
in the 1970s, I remember watching television.
414
1914947
4154
31:59
We only had four channels.
415
1919168
2519
32:01
In fact, in the 1970s we only had three channels in the 1970s.
416
1921687
7241
32:08
Can you imagine that now?
417
1928928
2035
32:10
The only things you could watch,
418
1930963
2519
32:13
the only stations you had
419
1933482
3621
32:17
three stations, three television stations.
420
1937169
3637
32:20
That's all there were not like nowadays where you have hundreds.
421
1940956
6006
32:27
But of course, computers did become more
422
1947046
2185
32:29
widespread, their use did grow
423
1949231
3003
32:32
and the personal computer came along.
424
1952318
3820
32:36
And the rest, as they say, is history.
425
1956221
3621
32:39
I'm sure you know what I'm talking about that, because
426
1959908
3771
32:43
it is the reason why I'm standing here doing this. Now.
427
1963762
4705
32:48
There are many changes that can take place over time.
428
1968550
4688
32:53
We can change our lifestyle.
429
1973322
4538
32:57
When we talk about lifestyle, we are talking about the things we do,
430
1977943
4605
33:02
the things we do for recreation,
431
1982631
2986
33:05
the things we do generally in our day to day life,
432
1985751
4287
33:10
maybe lifestyle can refer to the food
433
1990122
5288
33:15
you eat, the type of house you live in,
434
1995410
4321
33:19
the furniture that you have in your house,
435
1999815
3637
33:23
your lifestyle, maybe your personal lifestyle,
436
2003535
4738
33:28
maybe the person you share your life with, the person you live with,
437
2008457
4804
33:33
the person you choose to get married to.
438
2013345
5055
33:38
So there are many ways of expressing lifestyle while
439
2018483
4738
33:43
and I think it is fair to say over the past
440
2023305
3436
33:46
50 or even 60 years,
441
2026808
3253
33:50
there have been many changes in lifestyle.
442
2030145
4004
33:54
I suppose one of the biggest ones must be the way
443
2034232
3420
33:57
families interact with each other.
444
2037736
3753
34:01
So in the past families would be very close.
445
2041573
3153
34:04
But in Western society these days, it is not unusual for families to be
446
2044726
5806
34:10
distant or apart in some way.
447
2050598
5206
34:15
Which of course brings us back to modern technology.
448
2055887
4121
34:20
Because when we talk about modern technology, well, we have computers,
449
2060091
4138
34:24
we have our mobile phones, we have lots of ways of keeping in touch.
450
2064229
5038
34:29
So nowadays there isn't the need need
451
2069350
3003
34:32
for us to be together all the time.
452
2072437
4371
34:36
It is possible to be distant and not have to worry about
453
2076891
5756
34:42
being far away from our loved ones.
454
2082730
3620
34:46
Like this morning
455
2086417
2252
34:48
I was sending lots of messages to Mr.
456
2088669
2102
34:50
Steve and then when Mr.
457
2090771
2620
34:53
Steve arrives at his destination, he always sends me a message
458
2093391
4654
34:58
to tell me that he's all right and that he's reached his destination safely.
459
2098129
6389
35:04
So I would say that lifestyle
460
2104602
3003
35:07
is certainly something that has changed
461
2107688
3621
35:11
dramatically over the years.
462
2111392
2986
35:14
Marriage, I suppose marriage is a good example of that
463
2114628
4021
35:18
because many people these days choose not to get married.
464
2118733
4387
35:23
They choose to have a partner but not marry.
465
2123204
4304
35:27
So there are many ways in which lifestyle has changed,
466
2127591
6757
35:34
change in communication,
467
2134431
2753
35:37
change in the way we actually converse
468
2137184
4805
35:42
the way we interact with each other has changed a lot.
469
2142072
5139
35:47
And once again, this is because of technology.
470
2147294
5105
35:52
I remember
471
2152483
2018
35:54
where you back in the 1980s
472
2154501
3721
35:58
and I suppose also the early 1990s, I would often send
473
2158222
4337
36:02
letters, postcards to people and I would receive them as well.
474
2162810
5422
36:08
I used to love receiving messages.
475
2168232
3920
36:12
I had friends overseas who would often write to me
476
2172219
4521
36:16
and I used to feel very excited whenever I saw an envelope
477
2176807
3854
36:20
with a mail written on it.
478
2180861
3637
36:24
So it is quite exciting even now.
479
2184581
2936
36:27
In fact, I would say that these days it is more exciting than ever
480
2187517
5539
36:33
to receive a letter,
481
2193140
3003
36:36
an actual letter from another person.
482
2196259
3003
36:39
They have actually taken the time
483
2199262
2987
36:42
to sit and write a letter.
484
2202315
3487
36:45
I know it's unusual these days because not many people send letters to each other.
485
2205886
5522
36:51
I know it is rare.
486
2211491
3370
36:54
So the way we
487
2214945
867
36:55
change our habits with communication, some people, of course,
488
2215812
5222
37:01
say that it is a bad thing because we don't communicate
489
2221034
3487
37:04
with each other as much as we used to.
490
2224721
3403
37:08
We do seem more distant
491
2228208
3003
37:11
from each other than we did in the past.
492
2231444
3821
37:15
Of course, for some people that is a good thing,
493
2235348
3670
37:19
especially if you are not very social.
494
2239102
3837
37:23
So instead you can come on the internet and be social instead,
495
2243022
4905
37:28
which is a good idea.
496
2248011
2986
37:31
I suppose the way we live
497
2251147
2286
37:33
can also refer to our general health.
498
2253433
3420
37:36
We talk about health in day to day life.
499
2256853
4054
37:40
We talk about the way we live, the way
500
2260990
2886
37:43
we eat, the way in which we exercise.
501
2263876
4622
37:48
More and more people now are taking care of their health.
502
2268581
3937
37:52
Some people might be a little obsessed with it.
503
2272602
4638
37:57
Some people might think about it too much.
504
2277323
2819
38:00
In fact, I have my own theory about this.
505
2280142
3738
38:03
I think sometimes thinking too much
506
2283880
3920
38:07
about your health can make you ill
507
2287867
4871
38:12
because it causes stress.
508
2292822
2486
38:15
So maybe thinking too much about your health
509
2295308
3853
38:19
might not be a good thing after all.
510
2299245
3453
38:22
So change in the way we take care of our health.
511
2302782
3270
38:26
Of course, there are many innovations, many inventions,
512
2306052
5288
38:31
many things now that can help you to live
513
2311423
4355
38:35
longer, to enjoy better health
514
2315861
4672
38:40
for a longer period of time.
515
2320599
3504
38:44
Of course, we still can't live forever.
516
2324169
3270
38:47
Unfortunately, they are still working on that.
517
2327439
3671
38:51
I was talking to someone the other night
518
2331193
3320
38:54
about a programme that I saw on the news.
519
2334580
3837
38:58
In fact, it was a special news report about living forever,
520
2338417
5222
39:03
how to extend a person's life,
521
2343856
3737
39:07
and the conversation was really interesting.
522
2347659
2586
39:10
I have to say.
523
2350245
1769
39:12
So the conversation that I saw was,
524
2352014
3386
39:15
was discussing the effects of living forever.
525
2355400
4455
39:19
So what if certain groups of people could live?
526
2359938
6006
39:26
Well, maybe not
527
2366028
834
39:26
forever, but certainly for a longer period of time?
528
2366862
4237
39:31
And who would get the privilege of doing that?
529
2371183
6790
39:38
And I suppose the other thing is if people are living longer,
530
2378056
3520
39:41
then there will be more people on the planet.
531
2381660
2819
39:44
So I think I think it is it is an interesting subject,
532
2384479
3270
39:47
but I still think we are a very long
533
2387749
3520
39:51
from extending the life
534
2391353
3453
39:54
of the individual person
535
2394890
3003
39:58
to more than maybe 8085, maybe even 90,
536
2398043
5739
40:03
perhaps a hundred, because there are many people
537
2403848
2803
40:06
now they are reaching the age of 100.
538
2406651
3420
40:10
I know what you're going to say, Mr. Duncan.
539
2410155
2636
40:12
There are lots of people now who are 100 years old and older
540
2412791
5305
40:18
whom look at Dick Van Dyke, Dick Van Dyke, Mr.
541
2418179
4605
40:22
Duncan,
542
2422784
3103
40:25
look at him.
543
2425970
1552
40:27
He's 98 and he's still going very strong.
544
2427522
4571
40:32
So, yes, there are exceptions to the rule.
545
2432176
4121
40:36
I think it is safe to say there are definitely exceptions to all of these rules.
546
2436381
5839
40:42
Definitely
547
2442220
2853
40:45
change in education.
548
2445073
1918
40:46
Now, this is something I'm taking very personally.
549
2446991
4488
40:51
Do you know why?
550
2451562
1218
40:52
Because it affects me
551
2452780
2219
40:54
in many ways when we talk about the changes in education.
552
2454999
4605
40:59
Well, I suppose once again, I will go back in time to my childhood
553
2459687
4154
41:03
in the past,
554
2463908
3003
41:06
we were not allowed
555
2466911
3003
41:09
to use electronic devices in our exams,
556
2469947
4221
41:14
could not take electronic calculators into our exams.
557
2474385
5522
41:19
We were not allowed in any way to do that.
558
2479907
3003
41:23
We had to do it all up here in our brain.
559
2483060
4204
41:27
But these days
560
2487348
2703
41:30
it's not the case.
561
2490051
1251
41:31
Many people are now allowed to take
562
2491302
3370
41:34
to work out
563
2494755
1535
41:36
sums or very long calculations.
564
2496290
4421
41:40
Quite often it is allowed.
565
2500778
3954
41:44
However, in other countries you will find
566
2504798
2219
41:47
that the good old fashioned way of working out things
567
2507017
5055
41:52
in the brain is still taught
568
2512156
3403
41:55
in many, many places.
569
2515643
2035
41:57
But I suppose the big question must be
570
2517678
3570
42:01
what about the future of teaching?
571
2521332
3937
42:05
What are the changes that will take place
572
2525352
3003
42:08
over the next 20 or 30 or even 50 years?
573
2528539
4671
42:13
What will happen?
574
2533360
1985
42:15
Will teachers, humans
575
2535345
3003
42:18
in the classroom disappear completely?
576
2538398
4488
42:22
We are already seeing changes taking place.
577
2542970
3420
42:26
Certain groups, certain organisations
578
2546473
2770
42:29
that are responsible for helping people
579
2549243
2986
42:32
learn certain subjects, including language,
580
2552379
4104
42:36
are now using artificial intelligence
581
2556550
2819
42:39
more and more as a tool to teach.
582
2559369
3771
42:43
However, the problem is a lot of
583
2563223
2636
42:45
it is still in its early stage.
584
2565859
3270
42:49
It is. It hasn't been developed.
585
2569212
3003
42:52
It is not fully developed.
586
2572299
2886
42:55
So we still need human beings to make sure
587
2575185
3003
42:58
that the artificial intelligence is taking care of it.
588
2578338
5255
43:03
So I think that is a very important point to remember.
589
2583677
4471
43:08
Nothing at the moment can replace the human brain
590
2588231
5539
43:13
or the human being, to be honest.
591
2593837
3587
43:17
So I think I'm okay. A lot of people ask Mr.
592
2597507
2753
43:20
Duncan, are you scared?
593
2600260
1952
43:22
Maybe one day there will be artificial
594
2602212
3036
43:25
teachers on the Internet teaching.
595
2605248
3670
43:29
There will be no human being at all.
596
2609002
2986
43:31
Well, I have to say, I think people will eventually
597
2611988
6440
43:38
want humans rather than a machine teaching them.
598
2618511
5556
43:44
So I think in the future you will find more and more people
599
2624150
2703
43:46
will want to actually have a real human being in front of them
600
2626853
4738
43:51
rather than an artificial, intelligent,
601
2631674
4605
43:56
generated person.
602
2636362
3454
43:59
And I know these days you can make anything look real.
603
2639899
3003
44:02
You can have an artificial human on the screen,
604
2642902
3804
44:06
a person who looks human and real,
605
2646823
3970
44:10
but they're just a program running in the machine.
606
2650877
4237
44:15
Also the voice as well.
607
2655198
1434
44:16
So maybe one day someone will take my voice and use it for themselves.
608
2656632
5589
44:22
So all of the hours that I've been here
609
2662305
2485
44:24
on YouTube, someone might steal this.
610
2664790
3487
44:28
The sound of my voice, and take it for themselves.
611
2668361
7157
44:35
So I suppose I am a little bit afraid of that.
612
2675601
2369
44:37
That is the one thing that really does worry me.
613
2677970
3887
44:42
I will be honest with you.
614
2682074
3253
44:45
So I think it is fair to say that the future of teaching
615
2685411
3170
44:48
is quite safe
616
2688581
3370
44:52
for the time being because a lot of people are still cautious,
617
2692034
4788
44:56
they are still nervous, they are wary
618
2696889
4604
45:01
of all of this new technology.
619
2701577
2702
45:04
So I think at least for the rest of my life,
620
2704279
4438
45:08
I think I will be okay.
621
2708801
2052
45:10
I don't think anyone is going to replace me just yet.
622
2710853
6990
45:17
I hope not, anyway.
623
2717926
1385
45:19
I really hope not.
624
2719311
3570
45:22
Every day actions are affected by change,
625
2722965
4854
45:27
even the simplest thing.
626
2727819
3003
45:30
One of the things that I use every day and I love
627
2730889
4722
45:35
is the microwave oven, the microwave water.
628
2735677
4371
45:40
Brilliant invention.
629
2740132
2152
45:42
And the microwave was first introduced
630
2742284
2969
45:45
in this country during the 1970s.
631
2745253
3187
45:48
They were quite expensive at that time.
632
2748523
3287
45:51
However, nowadays people use microwave ovens all the time
633
2751877
6072
45:58
everywhere restaurants, cafes, even they use them.
634
2758033
6306
46:04
But at home, quite often when you want to eat something quickly,
635
2764422
4572
46:09
you might put it in the.
636
2769077
3003
46:12
In fact, one thing that I do quite often, sometimes where Mr.
637
2772197
4821
46:17
Steve makes a cup of tea for me,
638
2777018
4104
46:21
I forget and I leave it and it goes cold.
639
2781189
5539
46:26
So what I do is I take it and I put it in a microwave
640
2786811
4204
46:31
for around about one minute, well, maybe one and a half minutes.
641
2791099
4271
46:35
So it goes round and round and it heats up
642
2795453
4254
46:39
the only problem
643
2799791
2285
46:42
with that,
644
2802076
7474
46:49
sometimes you forget
645
2809634
2185
46:51
that the tea is in the microwave
646
2811819
2353
46:54
you forget about the cup of tea that you put in the microwave.
647
2814172
3637
46:57
And so later
648
2817892
2569
47:00
you open the microwave door and inside
649
2820461
2670
47:03
there is a cold cup of tea and you think,
650
2823131
3887
47:07
yes, of course
651
2827101
2386
47:09
I was heating that tea up earlier and I forgot about it.
652
2829487
5455
47:15
So once again, if it's cold.
653
2835009
2219
47:17
So it is not unusual for me to reheat my tea
654
2837228
3820
47:21
maybe twice or three times.
655
2841132
3003
47:24
Eventually I do drink it, but quite often
656
2844135
3120
47:27
I forget and I leave it in the microwave
657
2847255
3887
47:31
sometimes.
658
2851208
1302
47:32
Well, not in the next day.
659
2852510
2569
47:35
I find it
660
2855079
2402
47:37
stone cold in the microwave oven.
661
2857481
3437
47:41
So everyday actions are affected by change.
662
2861001
5606
47:46
Things we do in our day to day life.
663
2866607
2452
47:49
Of course there are certain things that we still need and cannot be changed.
664
2869059
4939
47:54
For example, we need to eat, we need to sleep.
665
2874081
5172
47:59
Sleep is still
666
2879320
2052
48:01
probably the most natural thing we do
667
2881372
3570
48:05
and there is no way we can change that.
668
2885025
2903
48:07
Technology hasn't really changed
669
2887928
3320
48:11
anything in that respect.
670
2891332
2986
48:14
I suppose helping you to get to sleep.
671
2894451
3420
48:17
There are new innovations that have come along, maybe certain sounds
672
2897955
5438
48:23
or certain types of medicine
673
2903477
3370
48:26
is used these days to help you get to sleep.
674
2906930
6040
48:33
You might describe change as a shift.
675
2913053
5072
48:38
Shift shift means to move in a certain direction
676
2918208
6223
48:44
or from one place to another.
677
2924498
3003
48:47
So maybe you are going in that direction,
678
2927601
2753
48:50
but then you shift slightly
679
2930354
2736
48:53
and now you are going in a different direction.
680
2933090
5739
48:58
So there are many ways of moving.
681
2938912
3637
49:02
Sometimes you might move in the wrong direction.
682
2942632
3287
49:05
Some people say that that change is bad and it can be.
683
2945919
4271
49:10
I agree with you.
684
2950423
1869
49:12
There are many people now
685
2952375
1769
49:14
criticising social media computers,
686
2954144
4271
49:18
smartphones and all of the applications that are contained within them.
687
2958498
6607
49:25
It is true that many people do not like
688
2965188
4087
49:29
the way modern technology is going.
689
2969359
2969
49:32
However, we talk about the way in which we think
690
2972328
4321
49:36
the way in which we view the world.
691
2976733
2552
49:39
You might also talk about science as well.
692
2979285
3370
49:42
We often talk about science when we are talking about the way we think, the way
693
2982739
6139
49:49
we think of the world, the way we think of each other,
694
2989128
4605
49:53
the study of the world around us has revealed
695
2993800
4621
49:58
lots and lots of amazing things.
696
2998671
3537
50:02
So each time we discover something new about
697
3002291
5239
50:07
the world around us, or even the universe,
698
3007597
4638
50:12
our whole attitude will also change.
699
3012318
5072
50:17
It would be fair to say that change happens
700
3017473
4121
50:21
around every ten years.
701
3021677
3604
50:25
So every ten years that passes by,
702
3025364
3804
50:29
you might say that there are changes taking place.
703
3029418
4471
50:33
Something that started to change
704
3033973
3904
50:37
has reached its goal.
705
3037960
3003
50:40
That particular change is now everywhere.
706
3040997
4721
50:45
It might be just in a few places,
707
3045801
2753
50:48
but over ten years you might suddenly find that it is everywhere.
708
3048554
4721
50:53
So I think it is fair to say that all of these innovations,
709
3053359
4137
50:57
all of these changes normally take around
710
3057496
3003
51:00
ten years before they become common.
711
3060583
4037
51:04
I suppose a good example, these days would be electric cars.
712
3064687
5121
51:09
So many years ago you would not see electric cars on the road.
713
3069892
4254
51:14
In fact, I remember during the 1980s there were many attempts
714
3074146
6607
51:20
at making and producing electric cars
715
3080836
4121
51:25
and all of them failed because of the power
716
3085040
4371
51:29
that they could hold the batteries, the means of storing
717
3089411
5606
51:35
the power was not very good.
718
3095017
5989
51:41
The live chat is very busy, by the way, Christine says.
719
3101089
3687
51:44
I worry more about young people who are completely hypnotised by social media.
720
3104776
6557
51:51
Well, when you think about it, we are
721
3111400
3003
51:54
we are now in 2024.
722
3114436
3704
51:58
So there are people who are maybe 16,
723
3118223
3737
52:02
17 or around 20 years old and they know nothing else
724
3122210
7958
52:10
but technology.
725
3130252
2185
52:12
So all of the technology that is around them, most of
726
3132437
3420
52:15
it has been around since they were born.
727
3135857
3704
52:19
Of course, it has changed in many ways.
728
3139628
2736
52:22
A lot of the different types of technology have changed,
729
3142364
3603
52:26
but the convenience has always been there in their lives.
730
3146051
4838
52:30
And this is the reason why nowadays, if you go to a restaurant
731
3150972
3971
52:35
or you go to a public place quite often
732
3155026
2519
52:37
you will see very small children, sometimes toddlers,
733
3157545
6156
52:43
maybe two or three years old, and they're holding
734
3163785
4304
52:48
a tablet device in their hand.
735
3168173
2986
52:51
They've got it there in front of them and they're pressing the buttons on the screen.
736
3171342
4688
52:56
And maybe they're just a couple of years old, three
737
3176114
2936
52:59
or four perhaps.
738
3179050
2970
53:02
And there they are playing on their tablet device.
739
3182020
5055
53:07
It's not incredible.
740
3187158
1768
53:08
So there are a lot of people around and this will continue to happen
741
3188926
4121
53:13
as the old people like me fade away.
742
3193131
5105
53:18
They will be the new generations that will come along
743
3198319
3854
53:22
and all of this will just be normal.
744
3202240
3920
53:26
It won't mean anything to them.
745
3206227
3620
53:29
So I think it is fair to say
746
3209931
2152
53:32
that change happens around every ten years.
747
3212083
4838
53:37
Each new decade comes along.
748
3217004
3053
53:40
Something over that time will change.
749
3220308
3987
53:44
It will alter in some way.
750
3224295
4988
53:49
So when we think about change,
751
3229367
2252
53:51
it can be a new way of doing something,
752
3231619
4070
53:55
or even a new way of thinking.
753
3235689
4271
54:00
This is an important point to mention,
754
3240044
2886
54:02
because a lot of people now criticise computers,
755
3242930
3904
54:06
and especially the internet and social media.
756
3246917
3304
54:10
They say it has made people more stupid,
757
3250221
5071
54:15
it has made them less intelligent
758
3255376
4454
54:19
because now they don't have to remember things.
759
3259897
2986
54:22
You don't have to store the information in your brain.
760
3262883
3837
54:26
You can simply go on the internet and find it.
761
3266804
4938
54:31
So you don't necessarily learn
762
3271809
2552
54:34
by looking at something on the Internet.
763
3274361
2586
54:36
Quite often we use the Internet as a way of passing the time
764
3276947
4471
54:41
because maybe we have nothing to do.
765
3281502
2852
54:44
Maybe we are feeling a bit bored.
766
3284354
2486
54:46
So we look at the internet, so maybe it is true.
767
3286840
3670
54:50
Maybe there is an element of truth in the internet
768
3290527
3787
54:54
making people.
769
3294381
3904
54:58
I don't want to say stupid,
770
3298368
2303
55:00
but maybe it makes them less willing to learn things
771
3300671
6039
55:06
and keep them up here in their heads.
772
3306793
4388
55:11
Only time will tell.
773
3311264
3003
55:14
When we talk about change, we often talk about modernisation.
774
3314301
4271
55:18
You modernise something, you make it new, you make it fresh,
775
3318638
5005
55:23
maybe you improve on something, you update.
776
3323710
5923
55:29
Now there is a word we use quite a lot these days.
777
3329716
3036
55:32
Update to update means
778
3332902
3754
55:36
to have the latest version of something.
779
3336740
5221
55:42
So in its modern form we often think of update
780
3342045
4488
55:46
when we refer to computers,
781
3346599
2469
55:49
devices, things that have to be updated
782
3349068
3370
55:52
so they are current and up to date,
783
3352522
3937
55:56
hence the word update.
784
3356543
2669
55:59
In fact, just before I started today's live stream,
785
3359212
4688
56:03
I had to update my
786
3363983
1435
56:05
computer because there was a new version
787
3365418
4204
56:09
of the anti-virus software,
788
3369706
3336
56:13
so I had to update my computer so it would work.
789
3373126
5622
56:18
Move forward.
790
3378831
1819
56:20
Of course, we always have to move forward.
791
3380650
2519
56:23
As I said at the start of today's live stream,
792
3383169
3770
56:27
moving forward is always the most natural way to go.
793
3387023
4704
56:31
There is no point going back.
794
3391811
2619
56:34
There is no point looking over your shoulder.
795
3394430
2903
56:37
There is no point taking steps back
796
3397333
3403
56:40
because the only way is forward.
797
3400820
4204
56:45
The future is always there and it
798
3405107
2903
56:48
is there for the taking progress.
799
3408010
3754
56:51
We talk about progress, we talk about advances.
800
3411764
4688
56:56
To move forward is to advance.
801
3416535
3337
56:59
You move forward, you add events,
802
3419989
4688
57:04
you make changes.
803
3424760
3937
57:08
And there it was, lots
804
3428781
2369
57:11
and lots of things to look out and watch.
805
3431150
3737
57:14
Again, you can watch this live stream as many times as you want.
806
3434887
4121
57:19
You can follow the captions.
807
3439041
2936
57:21
There will be permanent captions
808
3441977
2903

3444880
3821
57:28
What about you?
810
3448784
817
57:29
Are you worried about the future?
811
3449601
1852
57:31
Do you fear the future?
812
3451453
2937
57:34
Are you afraid of what might happen next?
813
3454390
3820
57:38
When we talk about the way things change around us,
814
3458293
3270
57:41
especially when we are talking about technology,
815
3461563
3003
57:44
are you afraid of the future?
816
3464683

We have a lot of things to talk about.
827
3492978
2486
58:15
We are looking back at old TV shows
828
3495464
6256
58:21
that we used to watch many years ago.
829
3501803

3754
58:41
whatever it may be, I hope it will be a good one.
835
3521956
4955
58:47
Even if we are only talking about
836
3527028
2870
58:49
the period of time between now and the next time we meet.
837
3529898
