Puzzle wizard, editorial director of TED-Ed Animations

A plan to make everyone happy backfires, leaving society dependent on a wonder compound that eventually causes memory loss and collapse. In a desperate race, three allies must reprogram a factory by unraveling a complex diagram—actually a directed acyclic graph. One mistake in the order could doom the cure. Their solution reveals not just technical skills, but the moral dangers of unchecked automation and good intentions gone awry.
