This is an IBM commercial. I'm not sure about "math can do anything", but it's encouraging to see a positive message about math for a change.
[Unfortunately, this video no longer exists.]

- Instrument the world's systems
- Interconnect them
- Make them intelligent
The following video explains how math can make our planet more intelligent. (I was worried he was going to push Internet fridges, but I was spared.)
One has to wonder - is urbanization such a great idea...?
