Students learn to build AI tools for financial analysis while developing a crucial skeptical mindset about market hype and the limitations of AI models.
The AI FinTech Lab is a specialized, live online program where high school students apply AI to real financial markets. Over four weeks, students engage in hands-on activities to build and deploy AI agents for market analysis. A core component involves developing a working AI Market Analyst dashboard that provides charts, indicators, volatility, sentiment, and plain-English AI explanations for companies. Students also construct an AI analyst crew using CrewAI, comprising agents for data, news, risk & skeptic, and writing, which work collaboratively like a professional analyst desk. A significant outcome is the creation of a polished, research-style one-page market brief suitable for college applications. The lab emphasizes critical thinking, teaching students to understand why most trading bots fail, how markets and models can mislead, and the importance of skepticism regarding financial claims. This educational experience uses historical and delayed data, focusing on AI and data science without involving real money or live trading.
Weekly live sessions combine short concept walkthroughs with hands-on building, where students wire up AI agents for market analysis, then iterate on a trading bot and stress-test why it breaks.
This lab is best suited for high school students who have completed the AI Agent Builder Lab (Level 1) or have solid Python and AI basics, and are curious about the intersection of AI, finance, and markets.
