The Advent of GenAI Hackathon: Intel Developer Cloud Powers AI Innovation

December 5-11, 2023: Harness the Power of Intel GPUs at the Advent of GenAI Hackathon. 

Registration deadline: 2 December 2023

Powered by Intel GPUs on the Intel Developer Cloud (IDC), the Advent of GenAI Hackathon is a week-long adventure into Generative AI, and it's open to AI developers, startup founders, and students who want to push the boundaries of AI innovation. Prediction Guard together with the support of the Intel® Liftoff for Startups team is hosting the hackathon.

This asynchronous hackathon will hold skill-enhancing daily challenges designed for participants to elevate their skills in Generative AI and LLMs. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to boost code and AI performance using Intel’s AI Developer Cloud, powered by the latest Intel Xeon CPUs and Intel Data Center GPU Max.

Participants will also have the chance to showcase their solutions within Intel’s ecosystem, receive unique marketing opportunities and the possibility to secure an Intel® Liftoff membership.

They will gain access to Intel® Liftoff's ecosystem, and get hands-on with Prediction Guard LLM APIs. Lucky participants will get to build a Jupyter Notebook-based application that could win them cloud credits and recognition.

“Prediction Guard's collaboration with Intel® Liftoff for AI Startups is more than a technological alliance; it's a partnership aimed at fostering growth and enhancing trust,”
- says Daniel Whitenack, founder of Prediction Guard.
“We want to be at the forefront of the industry, such that our users can unleash the full capabilities of LLMs in trustworthy enterprise applications. By being part of Hackathons such as the Advent of GenAI Hackathon we can get people hands-on with a private, enterprise ready LLM API that delivers safe and trustworthy LLM outputs.”
