Education

Why Zug Technology Lab exists

Children build real objects and software, and learn how AI can write, speak, listen, create and code. In a supervised environment they explore tools with capabilities similar to ChatGPT, Codex and Claude; structure prompts and projects; question wrong or misleading outputs; and use AI to express creativity without trusting it completely.

For parents

AI creativity, judgement and supervision belong together.

Children explore what AI can do—write, speak, listen, create and code—using supervised tools with capabilities similar to services such as ChatGPT, Codex and Claude. They learn to structure a prompt and a project around their own thinking, without trusting AI completely.
