UvA/AUAS AI Chat Hackathon

Do you enjoy brainstorming with a student team about creative ways to study with the AI Chat? Join the UvA/AUAS AI Chat Hackathon on 1 October at NEMO Science Museum – co-organised by AISO and Amsterdam AI!

You’ll have a full day to take on the challenge: design a gamification concept that makes studying with the AI Chat both more fun and more effective for students.
At the end of the afternoon, you’ll present your idea to a jury of researchers, developers and fellow students. If your idea is the best, your whole team wins tickets to World Summit AI on 7 and 8 October in Zaandam.

Drinks reception

After the award ceremony, there will be a drinks reception where you can meet fellow students from AUAS and the UvA, as well as researchers and entrepreneurs from the AI field. Of course, with beautiful city-views from NEMO.

Your AI level doesn’t matter

Not an AI whizz or new to gamification? Don’t let that hold you back. With creativity—and support from fellow students, the UvA AI Chat developers and students from AISO—you’ll go a long way.

What is gamification?

Gamification means adding elements from games – such as points, levels and rewards – to processes that aren’t necessarily games, like studying. A gaming exhibition is taking place at the same time at NEMO Science Museum, which you can use for inspiration.

Collaboration

The hackathon is organised by the UvA in collaboration with AUAS, student association AISO and the network organisation Amsterdam AI.
