In this inspiring first part of our 3‑hour deep‑dive, we sit down with Dr. Binod Bhattarai—Assistant Professor in Artificial Intelligence and Head of the Multimodal Learning Lab at the University of Aberdeen. His story spans continents, cultures, and cutting‑edge research, offering a rare look into the life of a Nepali AI researcher shaping the global tech landscape.

From his early days in Nepal to studying in Germany, conducting postdoctoral research at Imperial College London, and working across five countries, Dr. Bhattarai shares the personal and academic milestones that shaped his journey. We explore how to explain AI to a 5‑year‑old, the dreams that fueled his childhood, and his honest reflections on what the Nepali education system needs to evolve.

This episode is packed with wisdom, motivation, and a powerful reminder of what’s possible when curiosity meets opportunity.
