At Raksmey Sophorn High School, Tho Kimliya, a student in grade 11F, is demonstrating that technology is not just a tool for entertainment, but a vital partner for education and self-development when used correctly.

 

Before participating in the "AI Literacy Training," implemented by KAPE with cooperation with Department of Digital Transformation (DDT), led by ASEAN Foundation and funded by Google.org, Kimliya faced several challenges in using AI, often struggling to utilize it to its full potential. However, after completing the training, she turned those obstacles into opportunities. Today, she navigates AI tools smoothly and with confidence. To her, AI is a powerful technology that simplifies human tasks and makes studying twice as easy and efficient.

 

What makes Kimliya stand out is that she doesn't just use AI to answer academic questions; she has discovered a new passion for "AI Video Generation." She realizes that this project offers immense benefits for schoolwork and research, allowing her to keep pace with modern technology and continuously improve her skills.

 

Sharing What truly defines Kimliya’s success is not just her skill, but her sense of "Responsibility." She upholds strong digital ethical standards, firmly believing that: "AI must be used with careful consideration; one should never use another person's image or name without their permission."

 

Furthermore, she does not keep this knowledge to herself. Kimliya has a clear plan to teach her friends directly, using practical examples to explain complex concepts, ensuring they can understand easily and use this technology safely, just as she does.

 

"Mastering AI isn't just about letting it do the work for us; it's about using it with responsibility and ethics. Before we ask AI to process anything, we must think critically, especially regarding respect for others' rights. When we use it correctly and safely, this technology becomes a bridge that allows us to keep up with the times and develop ourselves in extraordinary ways," said Kho Kimliya.

 

She continues that "To me, Artificial Intelligence is not just a study aid; it is a gateway to a modern, convenient, and creative world."
