TIL I learned the difference between TED and TEDx.

TEDx events are independently organized TED-like conferences that operate under a free license granted by TED. While they follow the general principles of TED, TEDx events are planned and coordinated by volunteers at the local level, aiming to bring the TED experience to a broader audience.

      Sounds like my TEDx speech. To excuse myself, I want to say that I got called 48h before because someone dropped out and asked to do 20 minutes on a topic I wasn’t close to an expert on and that was also only my second public speaking experience.

      I wish I had chatGPT at the time to write a bunch of bullshit for me.
