Kids Explore Artificial Intelligence Through Interactive Challenges

Workshop Overview

The AI market is projected to reach US$1.3 trillion by 2030, with an estimated 800 million jobs set to be transformed. As industries are reshaped at an unprecedented pace, your child will enter a workforce that looks nothing like today’s. Whether they dream of becoming a doctor, artist or entrepreneur, AI will be an essential part of their future. From diagnosing illnesses and creating digital art to managing business operations, AI is transforming how we live, work and innovate.

That is why it is never too early to start building AI literacy! Give your child a head start with our hands-on workshop. Students begin by exploring the foundational principles of AI through real-world examples and thoughtfully designed interactive games. Building on what they have learned, they then apply their imagination and logic to the creative challenge of designing an AI assistant that solves an everyday problem.
