Agents and Compound AI Hackathon with Fireworks AI, Factory, LangChain
Join us for an Agents and Compound AI Hackathon in San Francisco!
Agents are often seen as advanced, autonomous, and human-like systems. But what exactly defines an agent? In essence, an agent is a system that uses a Large Language Model (LLM) to determine the control flow of an application. The more an LLM dictates the system's behavior, the more "agentic" it becomes. The autonomous capabilities of agents will enable new, innovative applications.
Agents are a fantastic example of compound AI. Compound AI systems don’t just use a single mega model, they combine multiple interacting components, such as retrievers, tools and specialized models.
This hackathon is your chance to collaborate, innovate, and push the boundaries of what's possible with agents and compound AI. Some of the greatest LLM and agent hackers will gather in one space to explore and create. We can't wait to see what you come up with!
This event will include talks from the following leaders in the Agents space:
Harrison Chase (CEO, LangChain)
Dima Dzhulgakhov (CTO, Fireworks AI)
Eno Reyes (CTO, Factory AI)
Opening remarks and event hosting by Factory CEO, Matan Grinberg.
About the hosts:
Fireworks AI is an AI inference platform that empowers developers with high-performance models (including their proprietary Firefunction-v2 model) and customization tools to build production-grade, compound AI systems.
Factory is building Droids -- state of the art, autonomous software agents that help organizations accelerate their engineering velocity. Learn more: factory.ai.
LangChain is building developer tools (LangChain, LangSmith, LangGraph) to make it as easy as possible to build context-aware reasoning applications. We’ve recently released LangGraph Cloud (available for Python) in beta. Learn more and get on the waitlist here: https://www.langchain.com/langgraph-cloud-beta
Rules:
All attendees must ship code. This event is open exclusively to experienced hackers, designers, and builders.
Only approved attendees on the list will be allowed in at this time. Get your spot on the list before we max out!
Please note that this is a fully in-person event in San Francisco and there is no virtual component.
Prizes:
A $3K cash pool, $6K in credits for Fireworks and LangSmith, and lots of swag split amongst 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners!
