Club Door Bot

Chatbot

Newcomers' questions get lost in your club's chat, so a chatbot answers from the club's notes and says "ask the captain" when unsure. Newcomers test it, and you fix one answer.

    MyHeartHealth (opens in a new tab)

What a finished project shows

AI for GoodSecondary · Ages 13–17

Make: A prototype you can demo, such as an app, chatbot, game, website or device, for one specific group. Describe the group, never individuals.

AI’s job: AI does a specific task inside it, such as recognise, sort, translate, simplify, answer or recommend. Show what you set up, and how you checked it gets things right.

Shows:

  • A before-and-after: how the problem is handled today, and what your prototype changes.
  • What you learned from 3 people, and a test with 5 people from or close to the group, anonymously and with their permission.
  • 1 change from their feedback, and 1 way your AI could be wrong or unfair for these users, with how you guard against it.
  • A process log with at least 4 dated entries, a short intro and your project or a demo judges can open.

Finalists on stage: 7 min talk + 3 min Q&A.

A summary: if the two ever differ, your challenge is what counts.
