The program offers a unique opportunity to earn college credit while investigating cutting-edge financial technologies and AI with USC faculty and industry experts, including a field trip to JP Morgan.
The "Bitcoin and AI: Unlocking the Future of Finance and Technology" program offers high school students a rigorous, college-level exploration of emerging financial technologies. Participants delve into the history of financial systems, the origins and technical components of Bitcoin, and the disruptive impact of AI on the global economy. The curriculum covers topics such as public-key cryptography, Bitcoin mining, valuation methodologies using blockchain data, and the role of AI in shaping business practices and economic processes. Students will also investigate the Lightning Network, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and stablecoins. A key highlight includes a field trip to JP Morgan to gain insights into finance careers and AI's influence on the global economy. The program aims to develop entrepreneurial thinking, culminating in students creating and presenting their own business ideas, potentially involving website/app development using AI tools.
A typical day involves 5-6 hours of instruction, combining lectures with group work, hands-on activities, and guest speakers, with a field trip to JP Morgan during one of the weeks.
This program is ideal for academically motivated high school students eager to explore the intersection of Bitcoin, financial systems, and artificial intelligence, and to develop entrepreneurial skills.
