Inside Dubai’s Mission to Build the City of the Future | His Excellency Khalfan Belhoul | TED (Level 1)

The Dubai Future Foundation is a special place where people think about the future. The leader of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammad bin Rashid, gives them money and support. They can try new ideas and even make mistakes. Their team includes very important people, like the crown prince. They study what might happen in the future. They test new technology like delivery drones and digital money in safe areas. Dubai is a safe city and many people from other countries come to live there. The foundation believes everyone in the world must work together to solve big problems like climate change and artificial intelligence. In the future, people might live to 150 years old, or even travel to other planets. But maybe the biggest change will be when human thinking and computer intelligence become one. This could change our lives in big ways.
