Encounter with Tyche Captured my Dream in Life
This is a
note written to the CEO of Bonavision, The Intelligent Robotic Company in South
Korea and now established in Stanford Research Park in Palo Alto, California.
The CEO, Dr. Richard Shinn, in many of his businesses and the quest to transfer
knowledge and leadership to the young, has started a Foundation for the young
leaders of the future and ready to mentor them. It is through one of the three-week
programs on Basic AI with Tyche where this young boy’s dream to become an
engineer is rekindled. Below are his own words translated from the original
language which is Korean.
Hello, my name is YunJun Kim, a 3rd
grade at Sindorim Elementary school in Seoul.
The reason why I want to be a
robotics engineer is that I became interested in robots after I saw a movie, Big
Hero which featured the robot Baymax rescuing a city. I fell in love with Baymax after the movie and
I even begged my mom to buy me a bag with a Baymax mascot. Now I have gained
more interest and want to know more about the robots. These days I am very
excited about science class at school.

Actually, I had not pushed hard on my
dream because there are too many things to study in order to become the person
whom adults usually expect you to be. I
wasn’t even interested in English, Mathematics, or any other subject for that
matter. All the subjects were very hard for me. But now I have a dream to
create a robot such as Baymax. My dream is to be a robotics engineer like Dennis
Hong (a Professor and Founding Director of Robotics & Mechanical Laboratory
– UCLA). I know that I have to study hard to become a robotics engineer but I
will do my best to achieve my goal.
I will have an opportunity to
experience an AI robot, Tyche for the next 3 weeks. I like Baymax, but I think
I will enjoy meeting Tyche as well and I am very excited about it.
I wish to meet a scientist mentor and
if I could, I will be very happy to ask him or her about all the curious questions
I have on robots.
And that is
the dream of a young engineer in the making. With the programs we offer through
the Young Leadership Future Foundation, Tyche becomes the door to endless
opportunities in careers that range from scientific to responsible leaders.
This is achieved by conducting basic and advanced Tyche AI programs and the
peripheral technologies that complement it like Machine Natural Language
Processing, Computer Vision for spatial sensory, and Problem solving through Reasoning and Planning.
We hope that you too get inspired and take the challenge of becoming
one of the global leaders in the intelligent cosmos.
