## Full Transcript

you know, they've they've obviously run through my profile and they are bringing up a topic like uh there was one person who wrote me, oh, I saw your TED TEDex talk and I did one TEDex talk in 2015 and I wrote him back. Have you really seen it? Are you just kind of some automation process, right?

And he didn't he never answered me back, right? So, I'm curious whether or not there is a difference between personalization and creepiness. Is there a line that you draw?

Um this is a this is a an interesting question I would say because in fact it may find information that I would not have find by myself but at the end of the day if your talk was interesting and and that's still one of my interest this is still something that I need to go through right so I understand the fact that it may be it may look a little bit creepy for people to just pull out information of of nowhere Where?
