Workshop feedback
Most workshops give you slides. This one gave me a GitHub repo I actually wrote. Building a tool from scratch and seeing Jarvis call it live is something no lecture could replicate.

I came in at a 1 on confidence to build AI agents. I left at a 5. The hands-on format meant I was never just watching.

Arthi is the kind of teacher who makes sure every student can follow. I've never felt more included in a live coding session.

AI Residency
My AI Residency Experience
Meher, 10, built an app for gymnasts during the AI Residency. She valued that Arthi answered her questions immediately and taught her enough to keep building at home, and she discovered how many AI tools exist beyond ChatGPT and Gemini.
I built an app for gymnasts to learn.
I thought there were only a few like ChatGPT and Gemini. But then I really saw that there were so many different kinds that help you with so many different things.

I really liked it. I like the way that when I asked you something, you immediately got onto it and helped me. I built an app for gymnasts to learn. And I really like the way that you helped me and you kept your promise to really help me develop and get better at each thing and teach me what to do so that when I get home, I can continue building it and make it a real app that goes live and people from all over the world can use it. Interviewer: How did that feel? To me, it was very cool that there are so many different kinds. I thought there were only a few like ChatGPT and Gemini. But then I really saw that there were so many different kinds that help you with so many different things. So, it was really interesting to me. I'll probably make videos. Maybe most probably [inaudible: caption reads "radio"]. And then I hope that people will use it and download it. Yeah, it's cool to me.
