They develop a whole new set of skills.

I used to make the joke that darwin's thinking was rather... unevolved.

A man is as likely as a woman to be intelligent, to be creative, to be innovative.

It was around this time we went from 1K to 16K, which was quite the leap.

I grew up with a radio in a car.

These constraints breed creativity.

Ice cover waxed and waned.

Birds evolved from dinosaurs.

Then human beings stepped out of the Darwinian flow of evolutionary history and created the second great wave of evolution, which was we changed the environment in which we evolved.

What they don't go back and get, those seeds become whitebark.

But the way that humans tell the stories has always evolved with pure, consistent novelty.

Seriously, but dangerously fun.

A new oil tanker was launched.

And like most parasites, it can begin dangerous, but then it coevolves and adapts, and we end up with a symbiotic relationship with this new parasite.

Have you studied Darwin's theory of evolution?

This has evolved over the years in a lot of different iterations.

We evolved as a species in the savanna lands of Africa, but then you see humans migrating into new environments, into desert lands, into jungles, into the Ice Age tundra of Siberia tough, tough environment into the Americas, into Australasia.

Well, we're all equally sophisticated.

Homo erectus left Africa 90,000 generations ago.

There's magic to love! (Applause)

India had, still has, a regulated phone system and so did we.

There have actually been 22 species of hominids that have been around, have evolved, have wandered in different places, have gone extinct.

They stood more erect. From these prosimians, evolved a new social animal.

So we're in a full circle now.

We use our vision more hours of the day than anything else.

This is a system that's been around a very long time.

Like all things in nature, feathers evolved over millions of years into their modern form.

We sequenced part of their viruses they're new rhinoviruses no one's actually even seen.

Some journeyed to the moons and planets.

And the last three years have seen an enormous breakthrough in a brand new field.

So how can we ever do anything new?

Those things came along too recently.

The evolution that we have described is referred to as microevolution, because it refers to a small change.

We just spent an entire week talking about innovations and advancements and improvements, but you know why we need all of those innovations and advancements and improvements?

But in the 1980s and '90s, the electromagnet turns back on.

and Bob Mills put forward, 50 years ago, this generalization of Maxwell's equations, with a new symmetry.

So in a way you can see how the Mountain in Copenhagen sort of evolved into the Seven Peaks of Azerbaijan.

You're evolving.

Evolutionary leap.

I call it neo evolution the new evolution that is not simply natural, but guided and chosen by us as individuals in the choices that we will make.

It's a brilliant redesign of traditional religious themes updating them, quietly dropping obsolete features, putting new interpretations on other features.

But what we've learn is that these biases might be a deeper part of us than that.
