In 1992, something unprecedented happened in Los Angeles: rival gang members negotiated a historic peace treaty, significantly reducing violence across the city. Aqeela Sherrills, one of the key negotiators of that treaty, continues to bring his vision of community-led peace programs to cities across the US.

AI won’t replace storytellers — it will give them superpowers, says film director Jason Zada. Showing how new technology allows creators to turn wild ideas into cinematic worlds at warp speed, Zada and the TED audience dream up the premise for a new sci-fi short film live from the stage, and then get to see the results three days later.
