AI Study Lab is your creative dojo for mastering the tools, theories, and emerging frontiers of Artificial Intelligence—with a focus on people, purpose, and possibility. Whether you're fine-tuning prompts, exploring ethical design, or building something meaningful with peers, this is your launchpad. It’s where curious minds grow together, sharpening both technical skill and human insight—one neural net (and one deep question) at a time.

AI Discovery Lab is a collaborative space for students, faculty, and staff to explore the promise and impact of Artificial Intelligence—together. Rooted in a human-centered ethos, the Lab invites all disciplines to engage with AI through hands-on learning, creative experiments, and meaningful dialogue. Whether you're curious, cautious, or coding, this is where the MiraCosta community comes to discover what AI can be with us, not just for us.

This is a regular business meeting of the board of trustees.

It’s the perfect launchpad for job-seeking technologists to learn, build, and network with fellow future rockstars.
