Prompt
AI can write code, but it can't decide what's worth building. This hackathon is about taste, creativity, and judgment: the human side of building with AI.
If you have ideas you care about and want to bring them to life, join us! Engineers, designers, product thinkers, business minds, and storytellers are all welcome :)
