Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future

A glimpse into the future where AI and machines shape our world


A groundbreaking fusion of online and offline engagement, the Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future is a non-profit initiative connecting students worldwide to explore the future intersection of tradition and AI.

From the classroom to the workplace, let's envision a future shaped by AI and robotics, as seen by students, professionals, and everyday people.

Let's paint a vivid picture of 2050, a future driven by AI, as seen from the perspectives of AI thinking, AI society, and AI innovation.

Originating from a high school in Michigan, USA, in 2019, the Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future is a series of non-profit events that has since expanded globally. Launched in full force in 2023, this cross-continental initiative has engaged nearly 10,000 students from nearly 100 cities in approximately 20 countries across five continents, capturing the attention of nearly 100,000 students and parents. This global project invites students to envision the world in 2050.

This pioneering series of workshops, debates, and interviews, which began in the United States, brings together students and everyday individuals to explore the future. Centered on the profound changes anticipated by 2050, the program examines the transformative impact of artificial intelligence and robotics, addressing technological disruptions, ethical dilemmas, societal shifts, and the potential overhaul of national and international laws. It also highlights how these advancements may reshape professions, careers, and even the very fabric of human civilization.

Today's generation of students are the backbone of the future world in 2050. They have both the responsibility and the obligation to start planning and designing the future world with an AI mindset, contributing the power of AI thinking from the younger generation to their communities, societies, countries, and even the planet.

Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future is a global non-profit student initiative that brings together ordinary people, students, and professionals from various fields. Centered around five core themes—AI thinking, AI society, AI innovation, AI talent, and AI 2050—this program encourages participants to explore and shape the future world through an AI lens.

Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future is the first of its kind to introduce a five-tiered interview system that combines AI and the future. This program bridges the gap between AI thinking and ordinary people and students, fostering the development of an "AI+ talent" pool for the future world of 2050.

The Yes I Can program recognizes that not all students have a natural aptitude for STEM. However, by introducing AI thinking to students of all backgrounds, we are preparing them to thrive in an increasingly AI-driven world. Our goal is to cultivate a generation of individuals who can apply AI principles to solve real-world problems and contribute to a more equitable and sustainable future.

AI Society: The Yes I Can program recognizes that not all students have a natural aptitude for STEM.

Our goal is to cultivate a generation of individuals who can apply AI principles to solve real-world problems and contribute to a more equitable and sustainable future.

AI Innovation: The program encourages youth to innovate in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics, including but not limited to conceptual, design, technological, and application innovations. We invite students from all disciplines to join the AI innovation movement and contribute to shaping the future in 2050. AI has the potential to revolutionize not just one industry but society as a whole. With boundless opportunities for innovation, the key lies in AI-driven thinking and creation.

AI Talents: The future world of 2050 will be fundamentally reshaped by artificial intelligence and robotics. To thrive in this new era, we need a global workforce equipped with advanced AI skills. By investing in the youth of today, we are preparing them to become the AI pioneers of tomorrow. Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future is a global effort to cultivate the AI talent that will drive innovation and progress in every corner of the world.

AI 2050: Let's empower all students to engage with the real world right now, working alongside adults and the United Nations to design, plan, and shape the future world and the development of AI technology in 2050. Because the backbone of future society isn't today's adults, but today's youth. These young people will be the pillars of 2050.

What is youth? It's the spirit of ambition, the courage to dream, and the boundless energy to make a difference. Youth is not about being changed by AI, but about changing AI itself. With the Yes I can ! 2025 the Journey to the Future, young people from around the globe are declaring to the world: Yes, we can!
