Artificial Intelligence Olympiad

Understanding and reasoning about AI — how it thinks, where it helps, and how to question it. As children grow up alongside AI in classrooms, apps and everyday life, IGNITIA's Artificial Intelligence Olympiad — among the first of its kind in India — helps them build the critical thinking to use it wisely, not just use it.

No payment for the mock test. Enrol for just ₹299 whenever you're ready.

Why This Olympiad

What the Artificial Intelligence Olympiad Actually Tests

Not coding. Not technical jargon. Age-appropriate reasoning about AI.

How AI Thinks

Age-appropriate understanding of how AI systems make decisions.

Where AI Helps

Recognising real-world AI use in the apps and tools around them.

How to Question AI

Critical thinking — not blind trust in whatever AI answers.

Pattern & Data Basics

The foundational reasoning skills that AI itself relies on.

Thinking Safely & Ethically About AI

Age-appropriate awareness of AI's limits, risks and responsible use.

A Clear Report, Not a Rank

A percentage-based report showing exactly what your child knows.

Classes 3–10

Difficulty That Grows With Your Child

The same exam philosophy, scaled to where your child actually is.

Classes 3–5

Foundation

Noticing AI in everyday life — voice assistants, recommendations and simple patterns — framed as questions a young learner can reason through, not technical concepts to memorise.

Classes 6–8

Intermediate

Reasoning about how AI systems make decisions, spotting where AI helps and where it can go wrong, and starting to question AI-generated answers rather than accepting them at face value.

Classes 9–10

Advanced

Independent, critical reasoning about AI's role and limits — evaluating AI outputs, understanding bias and reliability, and thinking through where human judgement still matters most.

  • Applied Python Logic — tracing multi-step Python logic used in simple AI tasks
  • Bias, Ethics & Regulation — a first look at how societies are responding to AI risks
  • AI in Critical Systems — healthcare, finance and safety-critical use-cases
  • Explainability — why understanding "how" an AI decided matters, not just "what" it decided
  • Misinformation & Deepfakes — advanced techniques for verifying AI-generated content
  • Independent Case Study — applying everything learned to a real-world AI scenario

Every class builds on the one before it — topics revisited each year go deeper, not just repeat.
