    I loved the inquisitive mind of the teenager!

  2. ie kie on March 17, 2023 at 6:19 am

    This is the best content I have ever seen on youtube. All countries have to have such a content, because it gives the children, the new generation, curiosity and they start to learn things faster.

  3. ExGarou on March 17, 2023 at 6:24 am

    why did they put spotify for the teen wtf

  4. Dunning-Kruger Pandemic on March 17, 2023 at 6:25 am

    what is the ratio of women studying computer science? Is it a 50/50?

  5. Jorge Alberto Meléndez on March 17, 2023 at 6:25 am

    Machines don’t learn. Machines compute. To learn, a thing is necessary; that thing is not defined yet because it’s inside the mind. Learn and compute seems to be the same thing but it’s not.

    who is the expert that we see on level 4 ?
    i want to see her studies..

  7. Nicholas Sekas on March 17, 2023 at 6:26 am

    2:05 how do you know this is not a cat or a dog? "Cats and dogs don’t wear watches." Children’s minds are amazing

  8. robitibor777 on March 17, 2023 at 6:26 am

    I miss the super-expert level who would bring even more insight to this problematic. The AI itself.

  9. NO-LAG TEARDOWN on March 17, 2023 at 6:27 am

    Bro at lvl3 the woman was the one asking the question and the grad student did most of the explaining lol

  10. Aleksandar Antevski on March 17, 2023 at 6:28 am

    Wow, her knowledge and her communication skills are excellent. She reflects the Guests talking points, and acknowledges their opinions, all while always smiling and making the learners feel comfortable, and make them open-up. This is an inspiring video, thanks for sharing… ✌

  11. JaviFlores on March 17, 2023 at 6:30 am

    Plot twist the lady is a machine teaching the humans

  12. kha f on March 17, 2023 at 6:31 am

    gold

  13. Hana c on March 17, 2023 at 6:32 am

    Her explanations are great

  14. Upgrade on March 17, 2023 at 6:34 am

    I like that woman

  15. ETERNITY. on March 17, 2023 at 6:36 am

    au/ra XD

  16. ApolloCat on March 17, 2023 at 6:36 am

    is it just me or does her face look a bit stiff

  17. chuy on March 17, 2023 at 6:36 am

    Amazing vocal fry

  18. ml on March 17, 2023 at 6:37 am

    I wanna be a machine learning engineer

  19. Neil Touafek on March 17, 2023 at 6:37 am

    De-esser next time pls. Good video ty

  20. C Bob on March 17, 2023 at 6:38 am

    Wow. Hi!!! Your audio is compressed and squashed so badly it’s basically clipping.
    When you render out a video, try aiming for -6db in your NLE. You want to average (basically the talking parts) to sit around -12db.
    It sounds bad just cranking it up to max level. Very bad…

  21. Jon G on March 17, 2023 at 6:38 am

    In all these videos, I notice the students want to engage by asking a question, but they just restate the last thing she said (with a ? at the end). xD

  22. Evrem Kan on March 17, 2023 at 6:39 am

    The expert is so cute! ✨YeAh✨ in 14:11

  23. Technology and Innovation on March 17, 2023 at 6:40 am

    Machine Learning is when human teach machines to look for certain patterns that human has categorized. Only advantage machine has that it can look at billion pictures per second and human can only look at 10 images per second and arrive at a conclusion.
    You tell machine cat as dog and dog as cat – machine has created its own world and perpendicular to yours/mine.

  24. Gloria Aguilar on March 17, 2023 at 6:41 am

    Completely in love with the fact that all of them were girls. As a girl just getting into STEM and facing all the barriers it entails not seeing many women in my field, this is super exciting and inspiring to see. Thanks Wired.

  25. Yusuf Polat on March 17, 2023 at 6:42 am

    Level 0: Explain machine learning to a cat!

  26. Witchaya Sipipattanakun on March 17, 2023 at 6:42 am

    She’s such a good teacher!

  27. JustIncide on March 17, 2023 at 6:43 am

    Now ask her if she can tell the difference between a male and a female…with no need for ridiculous and illegitimate pronouns.

  28. That Devika on March 17, 2023 at 6:44 am

    We need this video for AI please

  29. Louis Fortunato on March 17, 2023 at 6:45 am

    Really loved to see the teenager (Lucy) asking questions and being inquiring, and props to Hilary as well for communicating so well!

  30. Eric YeahBaby on March 17, 2023 at 6:45 am

    No 🚹

  31. Skanky Trick on March 17, 2023 at 6:47 am

    I have to say I’m quite offended by all the splaining and complete lack of diversity.

  32. trustful88 on March 17, 2023 at 6:48 am

    I really only understood the explanation to a 6 year old.

  33. Baris on March 17, 2023 at 6:49 am

    I have to say that as a man I feel highly discriminated because there are only females in this video. Be ashamed for discriminating against others. This video is racist.

    for anyone thinking this comment is bs : yeah thats basically our society right now

  34. But Why??!! on March 17, 2023 at 6:50 am

    My teachers think we are level 5. This way they **** up explaining in easy way. Why don’t teachers teach the way they do it to children?

  35. Lord Mephisto on March 17, 2023 at 6:52 am

    How come there was a no guy involved? Are they afraid the man would’ve mansplaned her instead? 😛

  36. Evan Sunde on March 17, 2023 at 6:56 am

    Machine learning can do all those amazing stuff and even predict future but its still being used for giving advertisements

  37. RHCPTABOO on March 17, 2023 at 6:57 am

    She teaches advances machines how to learn, OBVIOUSLY she knows how to teach things to us basic monkeys of bone and flesh

  38. prashant arya on March 17, 2023 at 6:57 am

    Thanks , this was very helpful.

  39. Ben Vaserlan & "Wilma's Housemates" on March 17, 2023 at 6:57 am

    I wonder if machine learning could be used to improve this generation’s music.

  40. jimlap777 on March 17, 2023 at 7:00 am

    Impressed to see how the "explanation" turns into more listening and discussion as she progresses toward more knowledgeable interlocutors.

  41. Avineet on March 17, 2023 at 7:04 am

  42. Rory Tribbet on March 17, 2023 at 7:05 am

    A video on machine learning featuring all girls and women is like a video on Olympic sprinting featuring all white people lol

  43. StaticBlaster on March 17, 2023 at 7:05 am

    Level 7: Explain machine learning to Skynet

  44. HoverMind on March 17, 2023 at 7:05 am

    FYI, all 6 in this video are girls/ladies

  45. Benjamin Lehman on March 17, 2023 at 7:08 am

    I saw a Ted ed video that said when a computer made poetry, judges could find it 100% if the time. So for now. Poetry is a human thing.

  46. Everything Else on March 17, 2023 at 7:10 am

    I’m cracking up so much at:
    Do you want to learn about machine learning?
    Yes, because I want to become a spy.

  47. This is Getting Old on March 17, 2023 at 7:11 am

    Girl who is too smart for her own good argues for the destruction of humanity.

  48. I Nyoman Prayana Trisna on March 17, 2023 at 7:13 am

    the teen girl is really smart

  49. Eleni Parisi on March 17, 2023 at 7:15 am

    Thank you.
