A 13-year-old boy from eastern China has garnered significant attention online for his ability to leverage artificial intelligence and programming to solve everyday challenges.
Yang Xizhe, a junior secondary school student from Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, stands at an impressive 1.9 metres tall and has amassed a following of over 500,000 on mainland social media platforms.
Growing up in a city celebrated for its vibrant technology ecosystem, he identifies as an “AI native.” Yang believes that for his generation, AI is becoming as vital as air and water.
In February last year, he gained recognition when a video demonstrating his use of AI to memorise English vocabulary attracted 20 million views.
