Introduction to Artificial Intelligence is a year-long course, in collaboration with The Coding School, offered virtually with live instruction by a Harvard researcher, and supported by MNOHS math teacher Dave Wilfahrt. Students must register for the full year-long course.

The course is designed for high school students to gain cutting-edge knowledge and skills in AI with a focus on Machine Learning (ML). , Throughout the course, students will work on real-world AI projects, culminating in a capstone project; hear from leading experts in AI from industry, academia and the military; and join a national cohort of future AI leaders.
