Event Week Days 5 & 6: Youth Ai Literacy Class Mission
š¤·āāļø ESTIMATED READING TIME: FIVE MINUTES
Disclaimer:
Everything below is a mix of what I observed and heard during the event. The goal isnāt to pinpoint "who exactly said what," but to share (usually) an outsider's view and overall perspective on these industries. Iām not here to act as a definitive firsthand sourceāreaders should do their own research. I hope this inspires you to attend events, explore new industries, and hear what leaders are presenting. These notes combine my observations with thoughts on how things could run smoother and how ideas connect (IMO). Iām not an expert, you know? Just hanging out in the room with them. Enjoy!I am taking today off from events to tutor, working on cleaning my house + researching a bit more to build out this Ai for Kids / Parents course ASAP + beyond. (Spoiler alert, this continued into the next day, too - more below).
Last night at 11pm I mistakenly stumbled upon this White House update. I meant to type another website with āwhā right before bed, but clicked āenterā too soon - then saw this headline: ADVANCING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE EDUCATION FOR AMERICAN YOUTH
Itās only 4 days old, this announcement, but I think itās right up my alleyā¦ā¦ā¦.
Yeah, after seeing this, I was like: woah, classes need to be made, huh? Resources? I can do thisā¦. but need to understand it WAY better.
āEvent Weekā has been awesome, it will continue to be awesome - and itās kinda technically even more than āDay 5 in a row of eventsā for me, cause I attended an event the day before - and lately Iāve been at a billion events! So many this month. Tomorrow I hear like 3 more speeches, maybe only 2.
But you see my point? :) Iām taking a day off. ā___ number of days in a row SOUNDS cute, but there are other amazing ways to spend your time. Right? Pivot, baby. Pivot.
Just putting this here to show my system, I set HIGH expectations for myself, and just do my best every day. For me, today the best thing I can do is stay home and work on what Iāve gathered so far. This opportunity is exciting and huge to me - I just need to make time for it.
Use your resources wisely. This includes your time, money, attention, focuses, and motivation.
NEXT DAY - the slacking carries on - not!!! Just depends on your perspective. Iāve been working like 30 hours straight or maybe 40 or 100 depending how you frame it. Iām hard at work on this Ai missionā¦ and my merch store hahahah. It is too fun - and - a way people can support this work if theyād like. Iām adding in a million surprises with each order (as they get approved by printfullll) and building out the brand. Everything is turning out cuter than expected + like the items of my dreams (I have some merch heading this way that is CRAZY hahah - crazy amazing)
Also, guess what?? The event/speech I was going to attend today (April 28th) - CANCELLED!!! lol. Good timing. So, tomorrow, Iām back on track to an event (probably, unless this momentum continues). Then, letās see what the rest of the week holds.
Days (and weeks and months and years) like these are the best. You know exactly what to work on, and hope/trust itās headed to success hahhahaa.
Until next time, I wish you the motivation and success to search for opportunities around your area. Search and explore: Who is out there giving talks? There are new things happening all of the time.
Find relatable or interesting topics you like and check them out! Maybe even something hosted at a cool venue, if thereās no other reason to go. Letās see what you can learn and discover not too far from home. š
