#ThrowbackThursday to our 2025 AI Demo Day Highlights!
At this year’s Code2College AI Demo Day, we heard directly from our incredible students and partners about the real-world impact of Code2College!
💡🤖 From hands-on technical experience and mentorship to the confidence students gain presenting their AI innovations on stage. AI Demo Day isn’t just an event; it’s a celebration of what’s possible when talent meets opportunity.
Our students continue to prove that with access, training, and support, the future of tech is brighter than ever. And we’re just getting started.
✨ Stay tuned for ULTRA: Presented by Code2College, coming next month, a brand-new experience you won’t want to miss.

I think AI education's critical to shape the future of the world is changing probably more rapidly right now than it has. I think every so often in the fields of STEM we see significant material changes, don't know what the technology is going to be capable of in the next 12 months, and so we need our children to be. Thinking on the edge of pure human creativity, all of these children are thinking great thoughts, pushing boundaries and being able to do it when they're young. Sometime in the future, I hope to maybe develop a extension to study pilot as maybe like an AI powered sort of SAT slash ACT studying method. Because I actually myself right now I'm studying for the SAT and ACT and it's very difficult. And so I think that a lot of students right now could use that. Hope and with our AI that we developed that's specifically for those students, it could really help. I go to Harmony Science Academy Furvilla. I'm a senior. My project was smart drive AI. I'm committed to UT Austin for computer science and in the future I hope to continue to explore my passion in computer science. And now I this experience made me a lot more passionate about pursuing a future in AI related career. I really do want to work with AI in the future. I've definitely grown my journey as a presenter. During this process, this project taught me the blueprint of how AI works and as well as large language models and the flexibility it has for me to be able to be creative. I really wanted to do this project because I learned ASL when I was very little so that I could communicate with my cousin who is deaf. And since then, being able to assign has been really great for me to be able to communicate with so many people who are hard of hearing who are deaf, and I really want to just spread that to as many people as I can. Because I think it's so important. They're amazing people. They've supported me all the way through. And no, just that has made me feel that I do belong here.
