• Mohammad Yahya Khan

  Mohammad Yahya Khan is a student innovator exploring how artificial intelligence can strengthen, not replace, human learning. Having lived across three continents and traveled to 25 countries, he brings a global perspective to the ethical integration of AI in education. He co-leads the Generative AI Committee at Shanghai American School, where he helps design responsible AI frameworks that deepen personalization and academic integrity. Beyond school, he secured seed funding from the Good Soil Foundation to develop an AI-driven web app supporting youth addiction recovery, collaborating with a cross- Asia team to bring the platform to life. Mohammad believes the future of education will be shaped not by AI itself, but by how intentionally and courageously we choose to use it.
