DALLAS, Aug. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Mark Cuban Foundation will host Artificial Intelligence (AI) Bootcamps for high school students in the Fall of 2022. The No Cost AI Bootcamp will be targeted at high school students and will introduce underserved students in grades 9 through 12 to basic AI concepts and skills. The Mark Cuban Foundation will host 25 camps across the US in Fall 2022. The bootcamps will be held over four consecutive Saturdays starting on October 22nd and ending on November 12th. The student and parent application are open at markcubanai.org/application.

Twenty high schoolers in Philadelphia will have the opportunity this fall to learn about artificial intelligence as part of a free program financed by billionaire Mark Cuban's foundation. Applications are now being accepted for the AI Bootcamp, which targets girls, students of color and young people from low- and middle-income families. The program is being hosted locally by CSL Behring, a King of Prussia-based biopharmaceutical company. "We don't want them to think AI is something that other people do," said John Thompson, CSL Behring's global head of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. "We want them to realize that they can be part of the AI future, that they can have a career in advanced analytics and AI." Participants, who must be in 9th through 12th grades, will gather for five hours on four consecutive Saturdays from Oct. 22 to Nov. 12 for interactive lessons and lab exercises.

Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban's foundation is hosting an Artificial Intelligence boot camp in several cities which include Birmingham. The initiative is for any current high school student in the Birmingham area interested in learning more about Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. No prerequisite courses and no knowledge of coding is required. Students must commit to four half-day boot camp sessions from 10 am-4 pm. The dates are October 23rd, October 30th, November 6th and November 13th.
