The problem with tech presentations | Dan Toomey | TEDxTampa

Keynote speeches have been a staple in business, finance and tech since Steve Jobs’ company addresses in the 1990s helped transform Apple into the cultural behemoth it is today. Since then, these presentations have been copied by every major tech company in the world - from Blackberry to Sony, Meta, Open AI and so many more. In this presentation, the handsome and well-traveled business journalist Dan Toomey diagnoses the issues with the modern tech keynote, and how its current state is a far cry from the speeches Jobs once used to inspire millions. Dan Toomey is a comedian and host of the YouTube channel, ‪@GoodWorkMB‬ . With over one million subscribers, Good Work is one determined attempt to understand the world of business, finance and tech that’s come to dominate modern life. Covering private equity, investment banking, business school, Palantir, Cybertrucks and more, Dan and his team of crackerjack researchers (Jack Stebbins, Henry Stockwell) are always sure to get to the bottom of the big story. And if they don’t, they tried their best. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
