From competition connections to a global student community
IAI²O brings together students whose paths into AI include coding, research, science, business, entrepreneurship, robotics, design, and curiosity. The Youth Council helps those connections continue beyond the competition.
Members are more than participants. They become voices, connectors, initiators, and co-builders of an international youth AI community.
Questions We Will Explore
- How are young people learning and using AI?
- How is AI changing education, research, innovation, and society?
- How should young people use AI responsibly?
- What kind of future do we want for humans and AI?
