The shorts of TED2023 define the era we find ourselves in — immersed in artificial intelligence, playing with possibility and defiantly full of infinite depth and discovery. Watch below for AI-infused resets and perspective shifts embodying the spirit of TED2023.

For one special week each year, a cavernous wing of the Vancouver Convention Centre in Vancouver, BC, Canada is transformed into the TED Theater: a custom-made, hand-built, 1,200-seat theater that plays host to mind-boggling, world-changing ideas meant to spark conversation, connection and wonder. Below, just a sampling of the incredible photography from this year’s event, TED2023. Also, check out our live coverage of the conference and watch TED Talks from TED2023.
