Build with AI

About this event

"Build with AI" hackathon are led by community-volunteers. Join us in Brooklyn to create fun, cozy AI-enabled software for your life. Work on digital pets, note-taking system, water-drinking app, habit tracker, and/or whatever else you can dream of and might be putting off making! Don't want to do a hackathon? You can also come an cowork/cobuild with friends, an accountability study session.

We welcome folks from all backgrounds, engineers and non-engineers alike. This isn't just for folks who have a coding background — you can create something without it! Our goal is to create a community of builders collaborating on weekends and working on fun projects.
