6 weeks ago, we attempted an experiment to use AI and throw the “Worlds Shortest Hackathon.” The experiment worked. In just 2 hours, we were floored with what hackers were able to accomplish, including everything from giving code editors automated computer-wide context to finding a severe vulnerability in a major publication.
We’re running the experiment back.
NVIDIA and Vercel are teaming up again for another fast-paced hackathon to see what you can accomplish with AI. Practice your prompting and come let it rip…. Or come cook, as Guillermo would say
