1 unit.

This course brings together students from across Northwestern schools to explore how artificial intelligence and computational technologies will shape the future of media, and who want to learn a process for creating new, AI-powered ventures in the news and media space. Student teams will use human-centered design methods to identify an opportunity gap, design interaction and presentation models, build functioning prototypes that fulfill those needs, and develop a compelling pitch and business plan to launch and sustain their product/service. Along the way, students will learn a process of innovation and venture development. Students will interact with industry veterans and domain experts who inspire and guide the student team as they pursue their projects.
