In a rapidly evolving world, the fear of being left behind by technological advancements is a common concern. However, there are those who embrace change and view it as an opportunity for innovation and improvement. The Digital Media Avenue of the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya is one such group, and they have launched an extraordinary initiative called “Intellia” that aims to introduce Artificial Intelligence tools to the Rotaract movement, transforming the way volunteerism is approached.
Intellia began with an enlightening awareness series designed to educate volunteers on the fundamental aspects of AI-powered tools. Covering a wide array of applications, from content creation to flyer design, video production, and even music generation, the series showcased the potential advantages of AI. By familiarizing volunteers with these tools, Intellia hopes to inspire a future where AI seamlessly integrates into every aspect of volunteerism.

One of the significant efforts of Intellia is the “Road to AI with RACUOK” podcast series. This podcast not only introduces AI to the Rotaract movement but also envisions a future where AI drives innovation, efficiency, and impact. The podcast explores various AI tools, such as ChatGPT, Beatoven, MusicLM, Dall.E, Mid journey, Synthesia, and many more, while highlighting their potential to revolutionize the world of volunteering.
The podcast series consists of 11 episodes, each focusing on a different avenue of the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya. Released every Wednesday and Sunday at 8 pm, the carefully selected AI tools represent a combination of well-established and emerging technologies, ensuring a comprehensive exploration of AI advancements.

To ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the podcast series, extensive research and evaluation were conducted on each AI tool. The team studied existing resources, documentation, and user experiences to gather relevant information, best practices, and potential use cases. This meticulous approach allowed the project team to deliver informative and insightful podcast episodes.
The selection process for the AI tools emphasized not only their relevance and efficacy but also their alignment with the core values of the Rotaract movement. The overarching goal was to empower volunteers with knowledge and tools that would enhance their impact and contribute to positive change in their communities.
Thanks to strategic social media promotion, the podcast series achieved remarkable viewership results. With over 500 views, the series generated significant interest and engagement on both the club’s YouTube channel and Facebook page.

Looking ahead, the impact of the “Road to AI with RACUOK” podcast series is expected to continue growing as more Rotaractors and volunteers embrace AI tools in their projects. The knowledge and insights gained from the series will contribute to a technologically advanced and impactful Rotaract movement, where AI-driven innovation is harnessed to create positive change.
The “Road to AI with RACUOK” podcast series serves as a testament to the power of education, collaboration, and technology in transforming volunteerism. It stands as an inspiration for other organizations and movements to explore the possibilities of AI and leverage its potential for the betterment of communities worldwide. With the pioneering efforts of the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya, volunteerism enters a new era, embracing AI and redefining the boundaries of what can be achieved.

Intelia stands as a pioneering initiative, exemplifying the exceptional application of technology within the Rotaract movement. This innovative endeavor illuminates the immense potential for leveraging technology to drive positive global impact. By harnessing cutting-edge advancements, Intelia propels towards a transformative path, enabling to create a profound and lasting difference in the world.
