00:12hey everyone welcome back to daily ai wizard i'm oliver bodemer in this episode i want to
00:18introduce you to a project that's close to my heart wisdom academy it's a platform built to
00:23make high quality ai education accessible to everyone anywhere over the next few minutes i'll
00:28show you what it is how it works under the hood and where it's headed let's get into it let's
00:34start
00:34with the problem ai is transforming every industry out there healthcare finance energy you name it but
00:41here's the catch the demand for people who actually understand ai is growing far faster than traditional
00:47education can keep up with that mismatch leaves a massive skill gap in the u.s alone there are over
00:53a million unfilled i.t jobs wisdom academy exists to close that gap so what is wisdom academy it's a
01:01built learning platform that combines two powerful technologies artificial intelligence and blockchain
01:06to reinvent professional development in tech i built it drawing on more than 23 years of experience
01:12including predictive ai systems at tomra and blockchain work at ibm the focus areas are business
01:18software development ai and blockchain exactly the skills employers are desperate for right now and
01:24this isn't just a concept on paper here's the actual platform this is the course overview from the working
01:29prototype you can browse courses like machine learning with python blockchain beyond crypto and full stack
01:35web development filter by category and enroll directly notice the buy with wsd button that's our
01:41blockchain based course token in action clean simple and learner first now let's look under the hood
01:47starting with the ai at the core is a personalized learning engine built in python with tensorflow and
01:53scikit-learn it analyzes your quiz scores your coding exercises your engagement and then dynamically
01:59reshapes your learning path in prototype testing it identified skill gaps with 95 accuracy on top of that
02:06sits a recommendation system curating over 500 technical modules plus real-time analytics dashboards so you
02:12always know exactly where you stand now the blockchain side and this is what really makes wisdom academy
02:17different every certificate you earn is issued as a tamper-proof credential on an ethereum-based blockchain
02:23using solidity smart contracts that means your certified blockchain developer badge can't be faked
02:29and it can be verified by anyone instantly the same layer secures your learning data in our stress tests
02:36we hit 99.9 uptime with zero data breaches for the engineers watching here's the stack the back end
02:44runs on java 17 with spring boot 6 and oauth 2.0 authentication data lives in postgres 17 with read
02:51replicas for sub-second response times the whole thing the java services the python ai the database
02:57and the ethereum node is containerized with docker and runs on a hardened self-hosted debian server
03:04fully under my control secure scalable and autonomous by design and it's built to grow
03:10right now the prototype comfortably handles 10 000 concurrent users and the architecture is designed
03:16to scale to 100 000 as we expand in our march 2025 load tests we hit a 98 success rate
03:22under peak
03:23conditions on a 32 core 128 gigabyte server so as the community grows the platform grows right along with
03:30it but specs only matter if real people benefit so we ran a closed beta with 50 pilot users software
03:35engineers and it educators the results a 92 satisfaction rate and an 85 course completion rate
03:42the ai engine was completed in december 2024 blockchain credentialing went live in february 2025
03:49and by march we had a validated late stage prototype the feedback has been incredibly encouraging
03:55so who actually wins here for learners personalized paths speed up skill acquisition by around 40 percent
04:02and verifiable credentials cut fraud to zero for employers access to a pre-vetted talent pool cuts
04:09hiring time by roughly 30 percent a big deal when a million it roles sit unfilled and for society
04:16an affordable freemium model opens the door to underrepresented groups and promotes secure ethical
04:22ai everybody benefits it's worth saying that this approach is grounded in the research not just intuition
04:28studies on ai and higher education consistently highlight the power of personalized learning
04:32and intelligent tutoring while warning about accessibility gaps for diverse learners the recommended
04:38fix is exactly what we built scalable inclusive online platforms wisdom academy is that research put into
04:45practice so where do we go from here the roadmap is all about scale and partnerships we're planning to
04:50grow to a hundred thousand users and we're exploring collaborations with companies like nvidia for gpu
04:55accelerated ai training and universities like mit for blockchain research the vision is to make
05:01wisdom academy a lasting leader in sustainable trustworthy ai literacy if any of this resonates with you
05:07here's how to get involved head over to wisdomacademy.ai and explore the courses whether you're just
05:13starting out or leveling up and if you'd like to collaborate you'll find me on linkedin and
05:18researchgate let's democratize ai education together and that's a wrap on this episode of daily ai wizard

05:29know in the
05:29comments what you'd like me to break down next i'm oliver bodemer thanks for watching and i'll see you in
05:35the next one
