AI Hackathon
I had a blast with Hackathon, so let's do it again! (New Theme though...)
What to Expect
A surprise creative challenge revealed at the start—no prep, no spoilers, just adaptability. A full weekend of hacking, experimenting, prototyping, and “wait… that actually works?” Freedom to explore any AI stack: local LLMs, cloud models, agents, pipelines, RAGs, generative media, hardware hacks, or weird hybrids. A GPU-heated space to escape the cold weather and turn it into raw creative energy. A collaborative, low-ego environment—bring ideas, curiosity, half-finished projects, or just vibes. Doors open Saturday at 12:00, we code until ~22:00, then pick up again Sunday at 12:00, and present around 19:00.
What to Bring
Your laptop, charger, and whatever cursed setup you normally swear is “almost production-ready”. ANY AI tools, APIs, models, datasets, or hardware you want to experiment with. Cash for caffeine. There's no participation fee, so please buy some drinks onsite, to thank c-base for hosting us.
Who This Is For
AI practitioners, tinkerers, hackers, researchers, builders, and creative technologists. People who enjoy constraints, surprises, and figuring things out on the fly. Anyone who thinks cold weather is best endured by making something cool.
Summary: Fees and Benefits
Entrance fee: None. Free drinks: None. Free food: None. Lodging: None. Prizes: Bragging rights. Benefits: A fun, social weekend, learning lots, and building stuff with other techie people, in a cool space!
