Girls exploring AI together

In a world governed by algorithms, she will no longer be a data point. She will be the critic and the creator.

Here's how.

Know the Logic.

She'll deconstruct how AI thinks, moving from a passive user to an informed critic.

We believe you can't lead what you don't understand. That's why we're going under the hood — demystifying how models learn, what training data really means, and why the algorithm shows her that video and not another. By mastering the logic behind the code, she earns the right to challenge it.

Girl understanding AI

Shape the “How.”

She'll stop following digital paths and start designing them.

Who trained this model? On whose data? Who benefits and who's left out? She'll spot a deepfake before her parents can. She'll ask the questions that matter.

Girl questioning AI

Lead the Outcome.

She isn't just finding a seat at the table—she's the architect drafting the room.

Every girl walks out with something she made, can explain, and is proud of. She stands on a stage and presents to a room that's listening. If she can't explain how it works, she's not done yet.

Girl leading and presenting

What she'll actually do.

No lectures. No worksheets. She picks a real project on Day 1 and builds it all week — with AI as her tool, not her teacher.

🌱 Explorers Ages 9–12 · 4 days × 2 hours

Teams of 3–4. One project, start to finish. Demo Day on the last day.

She might build:

  • A neighborhood nature field guide — with AI identifying species (and getting some wrong)
  • A children's picture book with AI as her co-illustrator
  • An original song with AI as her bandmate
  • A "spot the fake" detective guide she teaches her family

She'll walk away knowing how AI actually works (fancy autocomplete, not magic), what it gets wrong and why, and how to use it without being used by it.

🚀 Innovators Ages 13+ · 5 days × 2 hours

Teams of 2–3. One project, end-to-end. Demo Day on Friday.

She might build:

  • An AI-powered business — pitched Shark Tank–style to parents on Demo Day
  • A bias audit of a real AI tool that millions of people use
  • An investigative report comparing what AI says about Austin vs. the truth
  • A mini-documentary about deepfakes, made for her peers

She'll walk away knowing how AI models actually generate output, where bias hides in training data, when AI helps vs. misleads, and how to lead a project with AI as a tool — not a crutch.

Every cohort ends with Demo Day. She presents what she built to a room that's listening.

Girls building a movement

Shapers, not spectators.

This isn't five days of camp. It's a permanent shift.

When AI reshapes every corner of our lives, she won't be watching from the edges. She'll be holding the pen.

Summer 2026, Austin TX

Small groups. Real conversations. A space where she can ask the "dumb" question that turns out to be the smartest one in the room.

🌱 Explorers

Ages 9–12

For curious minds taking their first real look under the hood. She'll discover how AI thinks, create with it, and start asking the questions that matter.

Dates coming soon

🚀 Innovators

Ages 13+

For girls ready to go deeper. She'll build with real AI tools, interrogate bias in training data, and present a working project she's proud of.

Dates coming soon

Hi, I'm Nimisha.

I've spent 20 years building technology — at Meta, Microsoft, and Amazon. I'm a product leader. I think in systems.

But the reason this exists? My 10-year-old daughter.

She asked me a question about AI one evening that I realized most adults couldn't answer. And I thought — if she's this curious, if she's already thinking this critically, why is nobody building something for her?

So I posted a question in a Facebook group of Austin moms: "Would your daughter be interested in learning about AI — not just using it, but really understanding it?"

53 families said yes in two days. That's when I knew this wasn't just a camp. It's a movement.

AI Like a Girl isn't a coding bootcamp. It's not "how to use ChatGPT." It's a place where girls learn to think about the technology that's shaping their world — and then shape it back.

Questions you might have.

Not at all. We start with curiosity, not prerequisites. If she can ask a good question, she's ready.

That depends on her interests. Girls have built AI art generators, bias detectors, species identifiers, story generators — all based on what they care about. On Demo Day, she presents what she made to the group.

We keep it intentionally small — around 15 girls per cohort. She'll know every name in the room.

10 hours spread over 5 days (or 4 if there's a holiday week). Two hours a day. Intensity over endurance — she'll stay engaged without burning out.

Our first cohorts are in-person in Austin, TX. We're exploring virtual options for the future.

$299 per week. All AI tools used during camp are included.

Our Explorers cohort starts at age 9. If she's a curious 8-year-old who's comfortable in a group of slightly older kids, reach out — we'll chat.

We design projects around the things girls actually care about — not generic tech demos. Tell us what lights her up, and we'll weave it into the experience wherever we can.
