Open Source AI Hackathon (March 2025)

Please sign up at https://lu.ma/9bx3hw3v to get all the information and so we have accurate information for ordering lunch.
​Come ready to learn how to build on LLMs and work with a team to build an AI Application! We'll start with a hands-on tutorial, so come ready to code! Bring your laptop!
​You will need to have:

• ​A recent version of Python (I use 3.11)
• ​A vague idea of what an LLM is
• ​An enjoyment of building things with code

​You will get:

• ​A hands-on, practical training to learn how to build AI
• ​Pizza, the classic lunch fuel for hackathons

​You will have roughly 6 hours to make:

• ​A public GitHub repo containing your project code
• ​A presentation that you will get to give in front of the whole class (I mean group of hackers) and some Venture Capital judges
• ​New friends :)
