Introduction The Renaissance (1300s–1600s) was a time of major innovation in art, science, and technology. Today, we are in the middle of another transformative era: the AI Revolution. This presentation compares these two periods of rapid change, looking at their inventions, impact, resistance, and legacy. Speaker Notes: "In this presentation, I’ll compare two of the most innovative times in human history: the Renaissance and today’s AI Revolution. Both have brought huge changes to the way we live, think, and work." Slide 3: Renaissance Innovation Invention of the Printing Press by Gutenberg (1440) Scientific advancements: Galileo, Copernicus, da Vinci New ways of thinking: humanism, the scientific method Speaker Notes: "The Renaissance sparked incredible creativity. Gutenberg’s printing press made books affordable and ideas spread faster. Scientists like Galileo and Copernicus challenged old beliefs. Art and science became deeply connected, leading to long-term changes in Europe." Slide 4: Resistance to Renaissance Innovation Church resistance to new scientific ideas (e.g., Galileo) Censorship and control of information Fear of changing traditions and power structures Speaker Notes: "Not everyone welcomed change. The Catholic Church feared that new knowledge would challenge its power. Galileo, for example, was put on trial for supporting the idea that Earth revolved around the sun." Slide 5: The AI Revolution Tools like ChatGPT, self-driving cars, and facial recognition AI in education, art, medicine, and business Rapid technological change in the 21st century Speaker Notes: "Now we’re living in the age of AI. Artificial intelligence is all around us—in apps, robots, and online systems. It’s reshaping how we learn, create, and interact with technology." Slide 6: Resistance to AI Concerns about job loss and automation Misinformation and deepfakes Ethical worries and need for regulation Speaker Notes: "Like in the Renaissance, people today are scared of change. Many are afraid AI will take over jobs or be used to spread fake news. Governments and schools are now trying to control how it’s used." Slide 7: Then & Now Comparison Table Feature Renaissance AI Revolution Key Innovation Printing Press Artificial Intelligence Spread of Knowledge Books & Pamphlets Internet & Algorithms Resistance Church & Traditional Elites Governments & Educators Long-Term Impact Enlightenment, Modern Science Still unfolding Speaker Notes: "Here you can see the similarities. Both eras changed how we share knowledge. Both faced resistance. And both had—or will have—long-term effects on society." Slide 8: So What? Innovation always brings change, fear, and opportunity. Learning from the past helps us respond better to today’s challenges. Understanding resistance is key to progress. Speaker Notes: "The lesson here is that major innovation often causes disruption, but also progress. Looking at the past helps us understand how to handle big changes today." Slide 9: Conclusion Renaissance and AI Revolution both transformed human society. Change is never easy, but it can lead to progress. How we respond today will shape the future, just like it did 500 years ago. Speaker Notes: "To conclude: innovation, whether it's printing or AI, always brings change. It's up to us to use it wisely, learn from resistance, and shape a better future." Slide 10: Sources Class notes and textbook History.com: The Renaissance Britannica.com: Artificial Intelligence Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy: The Scientific Revolution World Economic Forum: Future of Jobs and AI Speaker Notes: "These are the sources I used to build this project. They helped me understand both the past and the present revolutions."
