What wins your auction? | Kashvi Khajanchi | TEDxMRIS Charmwood Youth

We like to think we know what we’re looking at. But how much of the world do we actually see?

Every day, we move through a world filled with information, patterns, possibilities, and signals. Yet somewhere between what is in front of us and what we experience, something decides what gets through.

This talk is about that space between seeing and noticing, and what it reveals about the way we think, learn, discover, and live. Kashvi Khajanchi is a Grade XI student, robotics researcher, and young innovator exploring the transformative potential of artificial intelligence and robotics. Driven by curiosity and a passion for purposeful innovation, she developed solutions that blend technology with real-world impact. Whether designing AI-powered innovations or leading sustainability and community initiatives, Kashvi believes the future belongs to those who use technology not just to solve problems, but to improve lives. Through her work, she hopes to inspire a generation to innovate with purpose, lead with empathy, and create meaningful change. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
