Show Notes

If you want to find out what the future holds, you have to visit a school. And if you want to understand this future, you have to talk to a student. Our podcast today tries to find the answers that explain the future with Artificial Intelligence. The kind of intelligence needed to explain artificial intelligence is not unique, but it definitely requires vision and an open mind, ready to perpetually ask questions that challenge common logic, questions that push the limit of knowledge and therefore attempt to sketch the future.

To most of us, artificial intelligence is expressed through a robot-like object, that is programmed to perform certain tasks. To Adrianos Botsios, a 9th grader who in his spare time he designs humanoids and ponders on AI ethics, artificial intelligence is the future, but with a strict asterisk: it has to serve the common good and that can only happen if it is programmed ethically by us, humans.

With Adrianos Botsios today we discuss:

  • Exploring the water cycle and understanding sustainability at a young age
  • The Green Team of 3rd Grade
  • The fourth Industrial Revolution and Artificial Intelligence
  • Recognizing the use of AI in daily lives
  • The AI Lab at ACS Athens, applying the theory
  • Reimagining learning through artificial intelligence
  • Our new friend, Niki
  • The question of reaching Super Intelligence, and
  • Ethical Considerations about the use of AI
