Design the Future. Solve Real Problems with AI.
Over 90 students. 4 weeks. 1 winning idea that might actually come to life.
Your class forms teams, brainstorms an AI-powered solution to a real problem, designs how it would work, and pitches it to win. The winning teams' ideas might actually get built.
Each week builds on the last. By Week 4, you'll have a polished pitch ready for the world.
Learn what AI actually is. Form teams. Brainstorm problems you want to solve. Submit your team's idea brief.
Answer the hard questions: What data do you need? What could go wrong? Start building your pitch deck.
Practice your pitch. Get feedback from classmates. Refine and polish before the big day.
Present to an audience. Get judged on originality, feasibility, and clarity. 🥇 🥈 🥉 Win prizes.

That's okay! In Week 2, you'll scope down to a realistic prototype or mockup. You don't need a fully working AI—a great design and clear thinking matter more.
No! This challenge is about design and thinking, not coding. You can show your idea with wireframes, flowcharts, videos, or even a paper prototype.
The winning team's idea gets built! The teacher will work with you over the following weeks to create a real, working prototype or demo that you can show off.
On 5 criteria: Originality (Is it new?), Usefulness (Does it solve a real problem?), Clarity (Can we understand your pitch?), AI Knowledge (Do you understand the AI?), and Feasibility (Is it doable?).
