Get ready, YEG (Edmonton), for the Hack-GPT extravaganza, where developers and AI enthusiasts will gather to unlock the potential of large language models. This 2 day hackathon challenges participants to redefine possibilities and revolutionize the world of AI-driven solutions.

In Edmonton, participants will immerse themselves in natural language processing, text generation, and conversational AI. The focus will be on harnessing the unique capabilities of large language models like GPT-3/4,Falcon, llama, guanaco, etc.

The challenge involves identifying real-world problems across various domains and leveraging the language processing capabilities of these models to develop innovative AI-powered solutions. Collaboration among participants, guided by mentors and experts, will foster creativity and knowledge-sharing.

At the end of the hackathon, solutions will be evaluated based on innovation, practicality, and impact. The top teams will receive exciting prizes, recognizing their ability to redefine what's possible with large language models.

Participants will have the opportunity to earn bonus points by creating solutions that seamlessly integrate with geolocation data, optimize property search algorithms for enhanced accuracy and efficiency, leverage computer vision techniques to analyze property images, or seamlessly integrate with real estate industry
