Asia Center For AI TalentStart with a problem,
not a textbook.
Is there a real problem here — fascinating or maddening — that makes people itch to build?
Students built something —
not just sat through it.
Pick a starting point that fits your level and your problem.
Pro track
For professionals in finance, marketing, operations and beyond. Start from your daily workflow and build something you can use the next morning.
Everyday AI
For everyone. Think “How do I ask GPT to find me the cheapest bottle of red wine?” Play first, go deeper later.
Masterclasses
People doing the real work in their industries show how they use AI. Someone you’d love to hear from? Make a wish.
Classes you can join now, and classes on the way.

You make a wish. We rally the people and make the class happen.
A problem you’re stuck on, or something you want to learn. Others who want the same press “+1” and leave their contact. Once 30 people sign on and we find the right teacher, the class opens — and you get a room full of classmates on your wavelength.

Five days: from zero AI experience
to demoing live on stage.
Not a course you sit through — a project you’re coached through. The brief comes from a real company; on day five you present to industry judges.
Think about problems differently
AI mindset, hands-on with the tools, and breaking down the company’s problem to find the one worth tackling.
Build it together
Turn your idea into a working prototype. Stuck? Talk it through, try, revise. The people beside you are working just as hard.
Run it live on stage
Run it live for industry judges and get feedback and next steps on the spot.
And after the course?
“Honestly, everyone was pretty surprised today — some of you may be swapping business cards in a minute to talk about coming to work for them.”
— Chen Huang-li, university lecturer, at the Cohort 1 demo day. The judges hadn’t even left, and people were already trying to hire students.
What the judges said.
Straight from the five industry judges at the Cohort 1 demo day, August 28, 2026.
“This is probably the part that struck us most today… On this track, you’re really digging deep into AI.”On the AI voice-support bot
“Everyone had very little time, but you found the problems quite precisely, and the way you used AI tools to solve them really hit the key points.”On the five projects
“Three days to finish… asking you to handle all this is honestly really hard. From an industry point of view, I think customer service has very high practical value for us right now.”On the AI voice-support bot
“I happen to be working on Whisper recognition lately… so I know how hard it is. Looking at his whole process, I’d say the level of completeness he was going for is quite high.”On the AI voice-support bot
“To build a product like this in such a short time, under these conditions — we were truly impressed.”On the whole cohort
“Overall, what you built already shows the thinking of a back-end and front-end engineer. Give yourself a lot of credit for that.”
— Eric, CEO, Hotfire Digital
