Grade 12 student Tony Song gives TEDx talk about AI’s Future
Tony Song ‘25 shared his insights about artificial intelligence (AI) during a talk he gave at a TEDx event hosted by Lakefield College School in October. He was one of nine student presenters (the others were from Lakefield and University of Toronto Schools) selected to spark audience members’ curiosity and inspire them to be change-makers.
Tony would love to organize a TEDx event at TYS in the future so other students can have the same opportunity he did. “Two of York’s strengths are debate and public speaking and I know a lot of my friends would love to participate,” he says.
