Thanks for creating such a wonderful opportunity for our teens. Not only was it very engaging, the sense of community around it was rewarding. Looking forward to more insights as we continue to explore this new era.

YXO was genuinely transformative for our son, Ben.
He walked into the program knowing a little about AI and walked out completely inspired by it. Something just clicked. YXO didn’t simply teach him how to use AI, it showed him what was possible and gave him the confidence to start exploring, creating, and learning on his own.
The change since then has been incredible. Ben is constantly experimenting with AI, building things, trying new tools, and coming to us excited about what he’s discovered. It has opened up an entirely new world for him and sparked a level of curiosity and excitement that, as parents, is amazing to watch.
There are plenty of programs that teach kids new skills. YXO did something much more meaningful. It helped Ben discover a passion.
