AI Hackathon: Build & Learn
Hands-on Experience
of Vibe Prototyping
For Dev Teams and Executives
The Challenge
Build a working AI prototype with real use cases from your company.
Guided by senior AI engineers, participants will use production-grade tools, libraries, and techniques to move from idea to functional prototype.
The goal: to prototype an AI solution that solves a real problem, demonstrates clear value, and can evolve into a full-scale product.
The Idea
Objectives
Enablement
Empower teams to build and deploy AI solutions
Learning
Acquire new skills with access to mentors and workshops
Acceleration
Speed up AI adoption with a quick experimentation culture
Alignment
Bridge the gap between leadership strategy and technical execution
Cost Cut
Reduce reliance on external vendors by building internal expertise
De-Risking
Make informed, low-risk decisions on AI strategy and implementation
Workshops
#1
Prototyping Framework: Tools and Practices
1) Agent Productivity
Vibe coding, prompting, and vendor comparison (Cursor/Copilot/Zencoder, etc)
Vibe designing your frontend (Replit/Lovable/Bolt, etc)
Foundation model vendors and features - comparison (OpenAI/Anrtopic/Google, etc)
AI Tools and frameworks (Langchain, Langgraph, Mastra, etc)
2 RAG & Context Engineering
Prompting approaches
Structured document ingestion -> vector store
Retrieval augmentation with LangChain + OpenAI Functions.
3 Agent Orchestration & MCP
Multi‑step task planners orchestrated via open‑source frameworks.
Patterns how to build it all
MCP (Model Composition Protocol) for chaining proprietary + open models.
#2
Support, and Scale of AI Solutions
1 Benchmarking & Observability
Internal eval harnesses (accuracy, hallucination rate, latency).
Observability platforms (OpenTelemetry logs + dashboards).
2 Finetuning & MLOps
Compare the adapter vs full‑parameter finetuning flows.
Deploy via vendor‑managed vs self‑hosted inference endpoints.
