Students will develop their own AI mini-project, applying generative AI to solve a real-world problem or express a unique idea, and gain foundational knowledge in machine learning concepts.
This program introduces high school students to the fundamentals of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and generative AI. Students will gain hands-on experience building simple AI models and learn how these technologies work through real-world applications. The curriculum covers understanding how generative AI operates, creating content with AI tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and Llama, and analyzing the ethical and social implications of AI. Participants will develop their own AI mini-project, pitching and presenting a creative application of generative AI to solve a real-world problem or express a unique idea. The course also builds foundational knowledge in machine learning concepts such as training data, model outputs, and prompt engineering.
A typical day involves learning how generative AI works, exploring real-world applications, and gaining hands-on experience building simple AI models and creating content with AI tools.
This course is ideal for high school students in grades 9-12 who are curious about how the tools of the future are being built today, including aspiring creators, engineers, designers, entrepreneurs, and critical thinkers.
