I make educational, animated videos about Artificial Intelligence. This channel runs on the voluntary payments of the patrons, and for that reason, i can't thank you enough. 

I've been working on my Youtube channel now for almost 3 years. I started by myself, doing all of the lighting, editing, programming, and animations using tools like Final Cut Pro X and Jupyter Notebooks. Now, i've grown from a single indvidual into an international non-profit called the School of AI. Over 800 Deans across 400 cities help fulfill our shared mission - to teach students anywhere a world-class AI education for free. We believe that we can solve some of humanity's hardest problems using AI technology. As such, we've dedicated our efforts to solving the United Nations 17 Sustainable Development Goals. 


My videos require a lot of work! I now have a full-time editor and animator to help me create engaging, fun, educational content that conveys complex ideas that usually requires graduate level degrees to understand to the everyday lay person. I won't stop, i won't rest, until everyone in the world has basic AI literacy. Just like reading or writing literacy, we all need to be literate in how this technology works. AI is a superpower, and unless we're all aware of how it works, this power can be abused by powerful institutions to exploit people. 



With your help, I can continue to keep my content free for all to enjoy and help fund my non-profit initiative (School of AI). We've got Deans all over the world helping spread AI education, from Colombia, to Nigeria, to the USA, to India. Thank you so much for your support, I live to serve my students, and i've dedicated my life to helping support this mission. Together, we can grow this initiative to help millions more people get a free education. 

Yours,
Siraj Raval
