AI Hackathon Cape Town - Introductory Track
Details
The goal of the AI Meetup is to expose developers to AI and machine learning concepts to increase our local competency and give everyone something interesting and fun to do at the hackathon.
We're setting up the AI meetup to be accessible in Cape Town. We will be streaming the short talk and have facilitators to assist with the hackathon at the event. Since this is the first one being streamed, we're looking to improve the process as we go, so please bear with us if there are any difficulties in the experience.
Feel free to get in touch if you would like to assist or have any ideas.
Here's a link to the repo that we're working off: https://github.com/prolific-idea/Machine-Learning-for-Beginners

You will require a laptop for the hackathon. Teams are formed, so it's not necessary for everyone to have a laptop. We recommend having the following installed:
• Python
• Scikit-learn
