💡 AI for Good
Use AI to make a real positive difference — however small.
🔥 Warm Up — 3 minutes
"Think about someone in your life who could use help with something. A grandparent who finds technology confusing. A friend who is struggling. A community that needs information."
"What could you make for them — using AI — that they could actually use?"
🤖 The Activity — 20 minutes
Your child identifies one real person and one real need. Then they build something for them.
Design the output with the recipient in mind — not the creator.
Refine until it is genuinely useful. Then deliver it to the real person.
🧩 The Twist — 5 minutes
Ask: what do all three examples have in common? What makes AI for good different from AI for profit?
You are about to begin the capstone project. Before you do — one final full review of all five rules. Say them together. These rules are not just for this programme. They apply to every AI tool, every time, for the rest of your life.

▼Altruistic AI use — putting skills in service of others. This session is often the most emotionally rewarding in the entire programme.
- Who did you make something for — and what did they think of it?
- What made this harder than making something for yourself?
- What other problems in your world could AI help with?
The delivery moment matters. Make sure the thing actually gets given to the real person. Seeing whether it helped is the most powerful learning experience.
This session can surface genuine care and creativity. Let it. This is what all the technical skills are in service of.
