WASHINGTON (AP) —First lady Melania Trump on Tuesday announced a nationwide AI contest for students.
The goal is to help students get comfortable with artificial intelligence tools and to work together using them to solve community issues.
The first lady announced the Presidential AI Challenge in a short video. Students in grades K-12 can sign up starting Tuesday at AI.gov.
An adult or teacher must sponsor a team. Submissions are due by the end of December. Regional competitions will be held in the spring, followed by a White House event with the national winners.
The contest was called for under an executive order Trump signed in April
