Question 1

零基础、不会编程的孩子，可以参加 AI 黑客松吗？

Accepted Answer

可以，零基础完全没问题。燎野·点火48（48 小时青少年 AI 黑客松挑战营）就是为零基础准备的入口：不需要先学编程，现场从 Vibe Coding 开始上手，导师全程提供技术支持。燎野不从「先学语法」教起，正是因为孩子不需要先会编程——直接在项目里用 AI 把想法做出来。真实的 AI 项目还需要问题观察、研究、产品、设计、表达、视频、硬件等多种角色，不会编程，绝不意味着不能参与；家长也不需要懂 AI，不必陪同完成项目。长期的燎野 AI 原生计划则不是零基础入口：需要先完成点火48，或向顾问申请线上人才评估。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/learn-ai-from-zero

Question 2

青少年学 AI，应该从哪里开始？

Accepted Answer

先上场做完第一个完整项目，再谈长期，零基础不用先学编程。第一步：用一段集中的时间做完第一个项目——燎野·点火48（48 小时青少年 AI 黑客松挑战营，8–18 岁，两天线下不通宵，不要求任何编程基础，现场从 Vibe Coding 上手，导师全程在场解决卡点，最后上台接受评委追问）；两天到不了现场的家庭，可以走同一级的线上替代入口「AI 创造一日实战营」（燎野 AI Builder Day，线上 1 天 8 小时，同样零基础可参加）。第二步：孩子确认想长期做，再进入燎野 AI 原生计划——这一层不是零基础入口，入营通道是先完成点火48，或向顾问申请线上人才评估。城市里有燎野线下活动时，也可以先带孩子去现场看看同龄人在做什么。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/where-to-start-learning-ai

Question 3

8 岁、刚上小学的孩子，能参加 AI 黑客松吗？

Accepted Answer

可以。燎野面向 8–18 岁青少年，小学、初中、高中都可以参加，8 岁的孩子和大孩子一样在本站在线报名 48 小时挑战营。团队里除了技术实现，还需要产品构思、用户调研、设计、表达路演等角色，低龄孩子一样有自己的位置。燎野一位 9 岁的小学员，就曾和深圳的高中生组队，拿下 Adventure X 有赞 superrun 赛道第一名。

Question 4

「48 小时」是要连续熬 48 小时吗？

Accepted Answer

不是。48 小时挑战营是两天白天的线下活动，每天 09:00 开始、17:30 结束，不通宵、不熬夜。

Question 5

青少年 AI 黑客松主要做什么？

Accepted Answer

从一个真实问题出发，在限定时间里组队、用 AI 做出能演示的产品原型，再上台接受评委追问。以燎野·点火48 为例：第一天上午先上手 Vibe Coding，做出网页、桌面、联网三个应用，下午现场组队、开始做项目；第二天冲刺 Demo，用 AI 做路演 PPT 和产品官网，把作品部署上线、请现场的人试用并修改，最后面向技术、投资、产业评委路演。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/what-is-a-hackathon

Question 6

怎么报名、费用多少？

Accepted Answer

48 小时挑战营可以在本站在线报名，费用 2,980 元 / 人（两天），含两顿午餐、AI 工具与 Token 支持、导师全程指导、路演与评委反馈和结营证书，不含交通与住宿；另有由广东省广仁同心公益基金会推动设立的公益免费名额，面向符合条件的困境家庭青少年。成都站、深圳站参赛家长单独收费（含午餐），金额请与顾问确认。长期的 AI 原生计划与海外巡回的班期、名额与费用请通过微信咨询顾问。

Question 7

AI 黑客松和少儿编程有什么区别？

Accepted Answer

学习入口不一样。少儿编程通常先学语法、算法，再按课程体系一步步做作品；AI 黑客松从一个真实问题出发，孩子用 AI 和工具直接把想法做出来，训练的是发现问题、产品判断、协作、表达和持续迭代。零基础的孩子可以先做出东西，再在真实项目里回头理解代码、Debug 和部署——编程基础依然有用，只是不再是唯一的入口。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/choose-ai-class-5-questions

Question 8

想给孩子报少儿 AI 培训，燎野适合吗？

Accepted Answer

适合想让孩子真正做出东西的家庭。燎野是项目式的选择：孩子在真实项目里边做边学，现场组队、用 AI 做出自己的作品、上台路演并接受多视角评委追问，训练的是问题意识、协作、表达和把想法变成作品的完整能力。和常见的培训班相比，燎野不按统一课表讲工具，也不让孩子照模板做作品。零基础、8 岁起都可以参加，从 48 小时挑战营开始，不要求编程基础；费用 2,980 元 / 人（两天，含两顿午餐、AI 工具与 Token、导师全程指导）。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/youth-ai-training-how-to-choose

Question 9

燎野 AI 原生计划是什么？和点火48 是什么关系？

Accepted Answer

燎野 AI 原生计划（原「三个月 AI 黑客松长期营」）是燎野的长期项目计划，采用 3+3 两个阶段、各 3 个月：先做智能应用，再做智能硬件，第二阶段须完成第一阶段后进入。每个阶段都以多个真实项目为训练场，孩子在不同项目中反复走完从发现问题到路演、复盘的完整过程；两个阶段都有导师陪跑、比赛窗口、中英文路演与真实社会对接。燎野·点火48 就是 48 小时青少年 AI 黑客松挑战营，是进入 AI 原生计划的主要通道；不方便参加线下的，也可以向顾问申请线上人才评估入营。AI 原生计划不是零基础入口——零基础的孩子先从点火48 开始，那一站不要求任何编程基础。

Question 10

孩子想做 AI 科创作品、准备科创比赛，燎野能帮上什么？

Accepted Answer

燎野的项目本身就是科创作品，而不是先学完课程再另外做一个参赛作品。孩子在营里产出的是能跑起来的东西：有 Demo、有代码、有部署上线的地址、有真实用户试用后的修改记录，还有面向技术与产业评委的答辩过程——这些可以直接沉淀成孩子自己的项目作品集。AI 原生计划的第二阶段是智能硬件，要把 AI 延伸到传感器、控制器和真实设备上，不只是在屏幕里生成内容。赛事方面：燎野三位小学员组队的图像故事作品《你来判》，获得第一届全国青少年人工智能辅助生成数字艺术创作者大赛（教育部白名单赛事）AI 与图像生成表达赛道小学组一等奖；学员团队也曾在腾讯云国际黑客松从 200+ 国际项目中入选 Top 10 并在新加坡完成英文路演，以及获得联合国教科文组织（UNESCO）在中国举办的首届青少年黑客松第一名。AI 原生计划的 8 项成长支持里包含「赛事与成长机会匹配」，会按项目方向与成熟度匹配合适的比赛窗口——这是按项目匹配，不是每位学员固定获得。需要说清楚两点：燎野不承诺获奖，也不承诺升学结果；教育部白名单赛事的证书按现行政策只作为综合素质评价材料，不作为招生录取依据。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/ai-project-and-admissions

Question 11

燎野是国际组织吗？在哪些国家和城市办活动？

Accepted Answer

是。燎野是国际青少年 AI 黑客松创造者社区，巡回分两条线：中国巡回在深圳、杭州、广州、成都等城市举办线下 48 小时挑战营；海外巡回第一站是马来西亚，覆盖吉隆坡、槟城、新山。学员团队在腾讯云国际黑客松从 200+ 国际项目中入选 Top 10，并在新加坡完成英文路演，也拿过联合国教科文组织（UNESCO）在中国举办的首届青少年黑客松第一名。项目里系统训练中英文双语路演，国际混编项目现场按项目方向与成熟度匹配。长期的燎野 AI 原生计划是全球线上，不受城市限制——不在上述城市、甚至不在中国的家庭，同样可以参加。

Question 12

48 小时挑战营和 AI 原生计划，哪个是线上、哪个是线下？孩子不在深圳可以参加吗？

Accepted Answer

两者交付方式不同，可以按孩子所在城市选。燎野·点火48（48 小时青少年 AI 黑客松挑战营）是线下的，两天白天、每天 09:00–17:30、不通宵，在中国巡回与海外巡回的城市轮流举办，需要到现场。燎野 AI 原生计划是全球线上的项目孵化：每周线上项目工作坊推进，配合阶段性线上集训，小班每班不超过 8 人，不受城市限制。所以孩子不在深圳也可以参加：有线下场次的城市就近上点火48；没有场次的城市，线上这条路有两个入口——一是 AI 创造一日实战营（线上 1 天 8 小时，零基础可参加），二是向顾问申请线上人才评估，通过后直接进入 AI 原生计划（人才评估为申请制，由顾问审核后单独发链接）。线上人才评估是与点火48 并列的正式入营通道，不是补考，也不需要先上任何预备课程。

Question 13

亲子 AI 黑客松是什么？家长可以和孩子一起参赛吗？

Accepted Answer

可以。成都站、深圳站是 48 小时亲子 AI 黑客松：家长可以作为正式 Builder 参赛，和孩子一起做一个项目，或各自带着自己真正想解决的问题——孩子做校园、生活、兴趣相关的问题，家长做与自己工作、行业或真实生活相关的问题；家长也可以不带孩子，单独报名参赛。家长不需要编程或 AI 基础，零基础也能参赛；家长作品同样上台路演、接受评委点评，但不参与评奖。家长参赛是可选的，孩子仍然可以独立参加；参赛家长单独收费（含午餐），金额请咨询顾问。在线报名时选择「亲子共同参赛」或「家长独立参加」即可；已报名的家庭原资格不受影响，可联系顾问升级。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/family-ai-hackathon-shenzhen

Question 14

孩子参加 AI 黑客松，对升学有帮助吗？

Accepted Answer

燎野不承诺获奖，也不承诺升学结果。有没有帮助，要看这段经历能不能证明孩子的真实能力：问题是不是孩子真正想解决的、核心部分是不是他亲手做的、有没有经历 Debug 和失败、有没有真实用户反馈、结束后还能不能继续迭代、半年后还能不能把项目讲清楚。燎野更看重孩子真实的参与、表达和成长，并帮他沉淀可展示的项目经历。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/ai-project-and-admissions

Question 15

怎么判断一个青少年 AI 课程靠不靠谱？

Accepted Answer

与其只看孩子做出了什么，不如看孩子经历了什么。可以先问 5 个问题：训练的是工具操作，还是解决问题的能力？项目是老师带着做完，还是孩子自己 Build 和 Debug？学完之后，孩子能不能自己开始第二个项目？做出来的东西有没有真实用户测试和反馈？老师是在给答案，还是在训练孩子提问、判断和决策？ 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/choose-ai-class-5-questions

Question 16

青少年参加国际黑客松，需要什么能力？

Accepted Answer

最重要的不是会多少技术，而是能不能在有限时间里和队友把一个真实问题做成可演示的作品，并用英文把问题、方案和自己的贡献讲清楚。更稳的顺序是：先完整做出几个小项目，再参加一次低门槛的开放式黑客松，把组队、开发、Deadline、路演和答辩走一遍，最后再去有入围机制和专业评委的比赛。燎野在项目里系统训练中英文路演，学员团队曾在腾讯云国际黑客松从 200+ 国际项目中入选 Top 10，并在新加坡完成英文路演。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/blog/who-can-join-a-hackathon

Question 17

家长或成年人自己零基础，也能学 AI 吗？

Accepted Answer

可以。燎野的线上「AI 创造一日实战营」（燎野 AI Builder Day，服务费 999 元 / 人 · 单次，线上 1 天 8 小时）同一天分两个版本：青少年版做作品，成人版做工作流。家长与成人可以单独预约成人版，不要求编程基础，也不要求先学过 AI，重点是把需求讲清楚、把任务拆开、让 AI 执行、检查结果并持续优化，落到会议、方案、资料、项目这些真实工作场景上。另外，成都站、深圳站的 48 小时挑战营是亲子赛制，家长也可以不带孩子、作为正式 Builder 单独报名参赛。 详见：https://liaoyehack.top/builder-day

Question 18

48 小时挑战营在哪些城市举办？

Accepted Answer

中国巡回正在报名：成都站 10 月 24–25 日（周六日）、深圳站 10 月 24–25 日（周六日）、深圳站 10 月 31 日 – 11 月 1 日（周六日）、深圳站 11 月 17–18 日（周二、周三），均为两天线下、不通宵的亲子场——家长也可作为正式 Builder 参赛，孩子仍可独立参加，可直接在本站在线报名；广州站 8 月 1–2 日、杭州站 8 月 8–9 日、深圳站 8 月 22–23 日、福州站 9 月 5–6 日、深圳站 9 月 26–27 日、杭州站 10 月 5–6 日已举办。海外巡回第一站马来西亚：槟城站 10 月 24–25 日、新山站 11 月 28–29 日，吉隆坡站 9 月 19–20 日已举办。

Question 19

Can a total beginner who can't code join an AI hackathon?

Accepted Answer

Yes — total beginners are welcome. Liaoye IGNITE 48 (the 48-hour youth AI hackathon camp) is the entry point built for beginners: no coding needed beforehand, kids start from Vibe Coding on-site and mentors handle the technical support. Liaoye doesn't start from syntax precisely because kids don't need to code first; they use AI to build their ideas right inside a project. Real AI projects also need problem-spotting, research, product, design, expression, video and hardware roles, so no coding never means no participation — and parents don't need to know AI or sit in on the project. The long-term Liaoye AI-Native Program is not a beginner entry point: it requires completing IGNITE 48, or an online talent assessment by application through our advisor.

Question 20

Where should a young person start learning AI?

Accepted Answer

Finish a first complete project on stage, then think long-term — no coding needed first. Step one: use a focused block of time to finish that first project — Liaoye IGNITE 48 (the 48-hour youth AI hackathon camp: ages 8–18, two daytime days on-site, no coding background required, Vibe Coding from the start, mentors on hand throughout, and a pitch to the judges at the end). Families who can't make the two days on-site can take the same-level online alternative, the One-Day AI Build Consulting & Co-Creation (Liaoye AI Builder Day, online, 1 day, 8 hours, also open to beginners). Step two: once your child wants to keep going, the Liaoye AI-Native Program — not a beginner entry point; entry is through IGNITE 48 or an online talent assessment by application through our advisor. When Liaoye runs a city meetup near you, it's also a good first look at what kids their age are building.

Question 21

Can an 8-year-old in primary school join an AI hackathon?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Liaoye is for youth aged 8–18 — primary, middle and high school students are all welcome, and an 8-year-old registers online for the 48-hour camp just like older kids. Beyond building, teams need product ideas, user research, design and pitching, so younger kids have a real role. One of Liaoye's 9-year-old students teamed up with Shenzhen high-schoolers and took 1st in the Youzan superrun track at Adventure X.

Question 22

Does "48 hours" mean staying up for 48 hours straight?

Accepted Answer

No. The 48-hour camp is two daytime days on-site — 09:00 to 17:30 each day, with no all-nighters.

Question 23

What do kids actually do at a youth AI hackathon?

Accepted Answer

Start from a real problem, team up within a time limit, build a working product prototype with AI, then pitch it to judges. At Liaoye IGNITE 48, for example: on day one kids learn Vibe Coding in the morning and build three apps — web, desktop and networked — then team up on-site and start their project in the afternoon; on day two they sprint on the Demo, use AI to make a pitch deck and product site, deploy it publicly, let people on-site try it and fix what they find, and finally pitch to judges from tech, investment and industry.

Question 24

How do I enroll, and what's the cost?

Accepted Answer

You can register for the 48-hour camp online on this site. The fee is CNY 2,980 per student for the two days, including both lunches, AI tools and tokens, mentor support throughout, the pitch session with judge feedback and a completion certificate; travel and accommodation are not included. Free charity places for youth from families in hardship are set up with the Guangdong Guangren Tongxin Public Welfare Foundation. At the Chengdu and Shenzhen stops, competing parents are charged separately (lunch included) — confirm the amount with our advisor. For the long-term AI-Native Program and the overseas tour, reach us on WeChat for dates, seats and fees.

Question 25

How is an AI hackathon different from a kids' coding class?

Accepted Answer

The way in is different. A kids' coding class usually teaches syntax and algorithms first, then builds up projects along a set curriculum; an AI hackathon starts from a real problem and has kids build the idea directly with AI and tools — training problem-finding, product judgment, collaboration, expression and iteration. Beginners can build something first and come back to code, debugging and deployment inside a real project. Coding fundamentals still matter; they're just no longer the only door in.

Question 26

I'm looking for a kids' AI class — is Liaoye a fit?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for families who want their child to actually build something. Liaoye is a project-based option: kids learn by doing inside real projects — teaming up on-site, building their own AI work, pitching on stage and taking questions from judges with different perspectives — which trains problem awareness, collaboration, expression and turning ideas into real work. Unlike a typical class, there's no fixed syllabus of tool demos and no template projects. Total beginners and kids from age 8 are welcome — they start at the 48-hour camp, which needs no coding background; the fee is CNY 2,980 per student for two days, lunches, AI tools and mentor support included.

Question 27

What is the Liaoye AI-Native Program, and how does it relate to IGNITE 48?

Accepted Answer

The Liaoye AI-Native Program (formerly the 3-Month Online AI Hackathon Program) is Liaoye's long-term project program, run as 3 + 3: two phases of 3 months each — AI Apps first, then AI Hardware, and Phase 2 requires completing Phase 1. Each phase uses multiple real projects as its training ground, so across different projects kids repeatedly go through the whole process, from finding a problem to pitching and reflecting. Both phases include mentor support, competition windows, bilingual pitching and real-world connections. Liaoye IGNITE 48 is the 48-hour youth AI hackathon challenge camp and the main way into the AI-Native Program; if attending in person isn't possible, children can also apply to our advisor for the online talent assessment. The AI-Native Program is not a beginner entry point — complete beginners start at IGNITE 48, which requires no coding background at all.

Question 28

What is a family AI hackathon — can parents compete alongside their kids?

Accepted Answer

Yes — at the Chengdu and Shenzhen stops, which run as a 48-Hour Family AI Hackathon: parents can join as official Builders, building one project together with their child, or each bringing a problem they genuinely want to solve — kids take on problems from school, daily life or their interests; parents take on problems from their own work, industry or real life. Parents can also sign up on their own, without a child. Parents need no coding or AI background. Parents' projects are pitched and reviewed by the judges too, but are not entered for awards. Parent participation is optional; kids can still join on their own. Competing parents are charged separately (lunch included) — ask our advisor for the amount. Choose "Parent + child" or "Parent only" when registering online; families who already registered keep their place and can upgrade through our advisor.

Question 29

Does an AI hackathon help with school admissions?

Accepted Answer

Liaoye doesn't promise prizes or admissions results. Whether it helps depends on whether the experience proves real ability: is it a problem the child genuinely wanted to solve, did they build the core themselves, did they go through debugging and failure, was there real user feedback, can the project keep evolving afterwards, and can they still explain it clearly six months later. We care about real participation, expression and growth, and help kids build a project record they can show.

Question 30

How can I tell whether a youth AI course is any good?

Accepted Answer

Look less at what the child made and more at what the child went through. Ask five questions: does it train tool operation or problem-solving? Does the teacher finish the project, or does the child build and debug it? Afterwards, can the child start a second project alone? Does the work get tested by real users? Is the teacher handing out answers, or training the child to ask, judge and decide?

Question 31

What abilities does a young person need for an international hackathon?

Accepted Answer

Less about how much tech they know, more about whether they can turn a real problem into a working demo with teammates under time pressure, and explain the problem, the solution and their own contribution in English. A steadier route: build a few small projects end to end, then join a low-barrier open hackathon to live through team-up, building, deadlines, pitching and Q&A, and only then move on to competitions with shortlists and professional judges. Liaoye trains bilingual pitching inside every project; one of our student teams made Top 10 out of 200+ international projects at the Tencent Cloud International Hackathon and pitched in English in Singapore.

Question 32

Can parents or other adults with no background learn AI too?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Liaoye's online One-Day AI Build Consulting & Co-Creation (Liaoye AI Builder Day, CNY 999 per person per session, online, 1 day, 8 hours) runs two tracks on the same day: the youth track builds a piece of work, the adult track builds a workflow. Parents and other adults can book the adult track on its own — no coding and no prior AI experience needed; the focus is stating the need clearly, breaking the task down, having AI execute, checking the result and refining it, applied to real work such as meetings, proposals, research and projects. Also, the Chengdu and Shenzhen 48-hour camps run the family format, so parents can sign up as official Builders on their own, without a child.

Question 33

Which cities host the 48-hour camp?

Accepted Answer

China Tour, now enrolling: Chengdu Oct 24–25 (Sat & Sun), Shenzhen Oct 24–25 (Sat & Sun), Shenzhen Oct 31 – Nov 1 (Sat & Sun) and Shenzhen Nov 17–18 (Tue & Wed) — all two days offline with no all-nighters, all running the family format — parents can compete as official Builders and kids can still join on their own; register online on this site. Guangzhou Aug 1–2, Hangzhou Aug 8–9, Shenzhen Aug 22–23, Fuzhou Sep 5–6, Shenzhen Sep 26–27 and Hangzhou Oct 5–6 have been held. Overseas Tour, stop 1 Malaysia: Penang on Oct 24–25 and Johor Bahru on Nov 28–29; Kuala Lumpur (Sep 19–20) has been held.
