00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.775
I feel more excited about AI

00:00:01.775 --> 00:00:04.234
because I want to see how it progresses in the future.

00:00:04.234 --> 00:00:07.296
It's made me think AI is a lot more exciting.

00:00:07.296 --> 00:00:10.000
A thing that I genuinely want to learn more about.

00:00:10.200 --> 00:00:13.332
AI is fast becoming part of our daily lives

00:00:13.332 --> 00:00:16.873
and it will play a big role in children’s futures.

00:00:16.873 --> 00:00:21.934
Helping them to understand what AI is 
and how people design and use it

00:00:21.934 --> 00:00:27.134
is vital to prepare them for that future 
– and inspire them to shape it.

00:00:27.134 --> 00:00:30.334
The BBC micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer.

00:00:30.334 --> 00:00:32.967
It makes computing physical,

00:00:32.967 --> 00:00:37.208
so it’s a great tool for children to
explore basic computational thinking.

00:00:37.208 --> 00:00:41.323
Extend that learning with
micro:bit CreateAI

00:00:41.323 --> 00:00:45.334
- a free, web-based tool that 
makes it easy for students

00:00:45.334 --> 00:00:49.534
to explore AI through movement
and machine learning.

00:00:49.534 --> 00:00:54.479
Students can program a micro:bit to recognise
and respond to their movements,

00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:59.277
like clapping, waving, running 
or even jumping.

00:00:59.277 --> 00:01:04.867
They can then use their data to train, 
test and improve a machine learning model

00:01:04.867 --> 00:01:10.387
then use it to code a micro:bit, 
to take their AI into the real world.

00:01:10.387 --> 00:01:12.867
I think it's really important 
for our students to learn about AI,

00:01:12.867 --> 00:01:15.179
it's going to have a massive impact in their future.

00:01:15.179 --> 00:01:20.139
The micro:bit CreateAI tool 
is an incredibly useful bit of kit.

00:01:20.139 --> 00:01:24.234
It's a really practical tool that 
the kids get really engaged about.

00:01:24.234 --> 00:01:26.600
It's really cool how like at first 
you’re teaching it

00:01:26.600 --> 00:01:28.867
and then it's like telling you 
things that you didn't know.

00:01:28.867 --> 00:01:30.800
It excites me more about what's to come.

00:01:30.800 --> 00:01:34.272
If I had to sum up the micro:bit 
in one word it would be

00:01:34.272 --> 00:01:34.772
Fun

00:01:34.772 --> 00:01:35.272
Intelligent

00:01:35.348 --> 00:01:35.936
Interesting

00:01:36.467 --> 00:01:37.317
Clever

00:01:37.317 --> 00:01:37.929
Exciting

00:01:38.148 --> 00:01:39.181
Amazing!
