Most pre-teens usually have only school, sports and friends on their mind. But then again, 12-year-old Tanmay Bakshi from Canada isn't like most kids his age. A programmer since he was five, Tanmay is one of the youngest app developers in the world. And his address at the IBM DeveloperConnect in Bengaluru on Friday has everyone talking about him.

Trending on Twitter, Tanmay's talk at the meet details, among other things, his algorithm called 'AskTanmay,' described as "the world's first Web-Based NLQA System, built using IBM Watson's Cognitive Capabilities." The eight-step algorithm can apparently solve queries related to a 'PERSON,' 'ORGANIZATION,' 'LOCATION,' or 'DATE' answer type.

The young genius, who loves to share his knowledge, began his talk by mentioning his new book and his wishlist, which includes getting said book signed by actor Amitabh Bachchan. 

Earlier this week, nine-year-old Anvitha Vijay — who has several iOS applications to her credit — was invited as the youngest-ever participant at tech giant Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco. 

A few weeks earlier, 8-year-old Medansh Mehta wowed Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, who was visiting India, with a game he had created. The Navi Mumbai kid who first started coding a year ago, began with basic languages like Logo and Scratch. "You can make anything you canimagine," Mehta told when asked about why he codes. 

Over the past few years, there has been a sharp increase in the number of kids taking to coding while still in school.
