Why we aren't ready for the rise of AI | Benjamin Gillman | TEDxYouth@AISCT

My name is Ben Gillman, I am South African. I like video games and playing sports, specifically swimming and basketball. I am funny, spontaneous, outgoing, and open to meeting new people. I live in Cape Town, South Africa and I go to the American International School of Cape Town. My favorite class is public speaking. I am looking forward to giving a bodacious TEDx Talk! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
