A five-episode podcast series from Kinwise

In 2025, North Carolina held its first-ever AI Solve-a-Thon: a statewide student competition where teams spent months identifying real problems in their communities and building actual AI-powered solutions. Kinwise sat down with the people who made it happen: the NC DPI leaders who designed it, the student teams who won it, and the education leader who helped shape AI's role in North Carolina schools.
