How is technology changing love? I'm going to say almost not at all.
科技改變了愛嗎？我認為沒有。
I study the brain. I and my colleagues have put over 100 people into a brain scanner
我從事大腦研究。我和我的同事們對100多人進行了大腦掃描，
people who had just fallen happily in love, people who had just been rejected in love and people who are in love long-term.
包括那些剛剛陷入愛情的人，在愛情里受挫的人，以及長期沉浸在愛之中的人。
And it is possible to remain "in love" long-term.
是的，長期處于熱戀期是有可能的。很
And I've long ago maintained that we've evolved three distinctly different brain systems for mating and reproduction:
早之前我就說過，人類在求愛和繁殖過程中進化出了三個截然不同的大腦系統：
sex drive, feelings of intense romantic love and feelings of deep cosmic attachment to a long-term partner.
性驅動，感受濃烈的浪漫，以及對長期伴侶深層的強烈的依賴感。
And together, these three brain systems -- with many other parts of the brain -- orchestrate our sexual, our romantic and our family lives.
這三種大腦系統和大腦中的其他部分結合起來，控制著人類性、愛情以及家庭生活。
But they lie way below the cortex, way below the limbic system where we feel our emotions, generate our emotions.
但它們深藏在皮層下，在邊緣系統下，即人類感受情感、發泄情緒的區域。
They lie in the most primitive parts of the brain, linked with energy, focus, craving, motivation, wanting and drive.
它們位于大腦中最原始的位置，和能量、注意力、渴望度、動力、欲望及能動性相連。
In this case, the drive to win life's greatest prize: a mating partner.
在這里，便是為了贏得人生最大獎的動力：一位配偶。
They evolved over 4.4 million years ago among our first ancestors,
這些大腦系統早在440萬年前就從人類最早的祖先中演化而來，
and they're not going to change if you swipe left or right on Tinder.
而不管你怎么在Tinder上滑屏，它們都不會發生變化。
