14-year-old Tanmay Bakshi who works for Google.

Though he first caught the attention of IBM at age 11, Bakshi’s rise in the tech industry began much earlier. While peers were stacking Legos and playing make-believe, a five-year-old Bakshi was learning how to code.The young boy who is known for his high level of intelligence, is currently working for Google with a salary of $1.25 Million.  He has developed multiple apps, published a book, hosted a TEDx Talk and spoken at IBM Watson summits around the world including Finland, New Zealand, Denmark and Australia.14-year-old Tanmay Bakshi who is a software programming whiz, is currently making headlines across continents as one of the youngest developers building applications around Watson, IBM’s artificial intelligence platform.

His father Puneet Bakshi worked as a computer programmer for a number of years. As the elder Bakshi typed out codes, his enthralled son watched the process.

While a large number of people are keen to see what amazing thing Mr Bakshi develops over the next few years especially after hearing him speak in many granted interviews, it was gathered that his father taught him how to program. From there, Bakshi began using the internet on his own and reading books on programming.
Realizing that there was a lack of knowledge about programming and machine learning, he made it his YouTube channel’s mission to help 100,000 aspiring kids and beginners along their coding journey. Today, he has over 200,000 subscribers.

At age eight, Tanmay Bakshi taught himself how to develop iOS apps. By age nine, he had his very first app, which teaches multiplication, accepted into the Apple store.His work took a new turn at age 11. While uploading a YouTube video, he stumbled across a documentary on the “question answering” machine IBM Watson and how it played Jeopardy. This was his first time hearing about artificial intelligence and it instantly cured his boredom. “From there, I was just immediately hooked to IBM Watson and AI,” Tanmay Bakshi recalls.
