AI champion Daniel Jung aims to dominate the planet.
Daniel Jung captivates a million viewers through his Mathematics videos on YouTube. Though recognized as a YouTube sensation, he's more than just a video creator - he's an educational innovator, entrepreneur, investor, and author. Looking to expand globally, he discusses this process in the 'Biz & Beyond' podcast from ntv.
Jung has been transforming the way people learn since 2011, posting Math explanations online even before education on social media was in vogue. His videos attract more than a million views daily and he has over a million followers. Yet, Jung is not just a YouTube celebrity but also an educational pioneer, businessman, financial backer, and writer.
Jung sees the two biggest hurdles for the educational system as overcoming outdated mindsets and the apprehension of making errors. In his opinion, German universities can be improved significantly, particularly in their collaboration with businesses. Though many teachers yearn to embrace new ideas, they lack the resources and options to do so. Currently, Jung is striving to modernize schools and colleges with inventive approaches by collaborating on projects. He dreams of creating a "Vision Fund" worth hundreds of millions of euros to finance startups. He emphasizes that the drive for innovation should come from the corporate sector, not relying solely on politics.
Though AI and digitalization offer enticing prospects, the human teacher will remain essential for the near future. Students, trainees, and apprentices need a physical setting to interact and learn together.
Jung has managed to secure investors through persistent solicitations. Now, he is determined to take on the world, primarily through the deployment of Artificial Intelligence. Right now, he is experimenting with translating his videos into English and Spanish using AI. In his view, one of the greatest obstacles to his success was learning to say no. To young people, he suggests shutting off Social Media and focusing on facts and informative content. At the same time, he urges trying different things and being active. Ability to express oneself clearly is crucial in the digital era.
