DENVER, Colo., Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Mark Cuban Foundation, in partnership with Quizlet, will host a no-cost Artificial Intelligence Bootcamp for high school students in Denver, this fall. The program is open to students in grades 9–12 and will take place over three consecutive Saturdays – October 31, November 7, and November 14.

The AI Bootcamp gives underserved students hands-on experience with cutting-edge AI tools, including generative AI, and explores real-world applications in fields such as healthcare, arts, business, computer science, sports science, and career readiness. Students will also complete a capstone project under the guidance of industry mentors.
“As AI continues to become an undeniable force in all of our lives, it’s crucial that we open the door to this knowledge, especially to young people who want to explore it,” said Mark Cuban, founder. “While technology expands and becomes more advanced, it becomes more critical that we ensure our students are prepared when they apply for schools or jobs in the future. Thanks to our work with Quizlet, the bootcamp will offer an avenue to explore this fascinating field of technology to any student, no matter their means.”
