🐰 AI Generation: 14-Year-Old Tech Enthusiast Gives TEDx Talk on AI
Raul John, known as #Raultherockstar, is a rising star on @Techonaroll' rel='nofollow'>YouTube and Instagram, covering technology, AI, and IT education.
🆒 A Young Prodigy from India
Raul was born and raised in Edappally, a provincial town in India. In 2018, he launched his YouTube channel, where he engagingly discusses technology and creates content for his peers. Last year, he launched online AI courses for American schoolchildren. In his lessons, Raul is accompanied by his homemade robot, MeBot.
The robot's core includes several AI engines: Canva AI, Unreal Engine, and Inworld AI. But the most amazing thing is that Raul and his classmate assembled the robot himself as an exhibit for a school science fair (of course, he won the grand prize!). According to this AI wunderkind, he created MeBot to answer questions from American schoolchildren when he sleeps. The robot speaks in Raul's voice 🇨🇦
🎤 What Was His Lecture About?
Raul gave an interesting talk on the topic "From AI Curious to AI Serious." Here is a summary of his lecture:
🔣 When Raul started his YouTube channel, it took him about three months to edit one video. He found an editing program that correctly cut frames, remove pauses, do zooms, and smooth transitions. Raul studied the program and learned that AI did all this for him, which led him to start sharing the benefits of this technology on the Clubhouse platform. Gradually, his audience grew, people began gifting Raul subscriptions to various AI models for testing, and his opinion became authoritative.
🔣 Raul doubts that modern AI can be called "intelligent." As evidence, he discusses the "Chinese Room" experiment, which refutes the possibility of AI possessing consciousness (of course, this does not refer to AGI).
🔣 Why has AI become popular now, not 15-20 years ago? The main role was GPUs (graphics processors), which can perform repetitive operations and handle multiple tasks simultaneously, unlike CPUs (central processors, which are like the CEO of a company — important but slow and capable of solving only one task at a time). The mass production and continuous performance improvement of GPUs have made AI models so effective.

"My goal is to use technology to improve the future. I create videos daily about how technology can positively impact our lives. And I talk about AI tools for content creators, video editors, and even lawyers," — Raul John, teenager, and AI influencer
