Elementary
Smart Machines Around Us
Discover the smart machines all around you — at home, in games, on the road — and learn to spot AI in everyday life.
Patterns & Sorting
AI's biggest superpower is finding patterns. Sort, group, spot, and predict your way to understanding how AI sees the world.
Teaching a Machine
Machines learn from examples, just like you do. Teach a machine, watch it get smarter, and discover what training really means.
AI Has No Feelings
AI is clever, but it has no feelings and does not truly understand. Learn the honest, reassuring truth about how AI is different from you.
Being Kind & Safe with AI
Be kind, safe, and smart with AI. Protect your secrets, double-check answers, and grow into a great AI citizen.
Capstone Project: Train Your Own Smart Helper
Put it all together: train your own smart helper in the Teachable Machine lab, then show the world what it learned.
Middle
Data: AI's Food
Data is what AI eats. Explore what data is, how datasets are built, and why biased data leads to biased AI.
How Machines Learn
Open up machine learning: the training loop, features, feedback, and how we measure whether a model is any good.
Neural Networks Demystified
Neural networks made clear — neurons, layers, and weights, and how a network makes a decision and learns.
Generative AI & Prompting
How AI creates text and images, and how to write prompts that get the results you want.
AI Ethics & Bias
Fairness, deepfakes, and misinformation — thinking clearly about the real-world impact of AI.
Capstone Project: Build & Test a Model
Build a working model in the labs, evaluate it honestly with a real test set, and write up your findings.
High School
The Machine Learning Pipeline
The full machine-learning workflow, end to end: framing a problem, data, features, training, evaluation, and deployment.
Inside a Neural Network
The real machinery of deep learning: neurons, weights, activations, loss, gradient descent, and backpropagation.
Large Language Models
How large language models actually work: tokens, transformers, pretraining, alignment, and their true capabilities and limits.
AI Ethics, Alignment & Society
Bias, the alignment problem, governance, and the economic impact of AI — reasoned through with rigor.
AI in the World
AI across science, industry, and creativity — where it is deployed today and where it is heading.
Capstone Project: An AI Research Brief
Pose a real research question, investigate it with the Institute labs, and write a disciplined research brief — a bridge to independent AI research.
