Vancouver Hack Day - Personal AI
Own your AI! With open models becoming more and more powerful, what new types of applications can we create with AI agents that run securely and privately on our own devices and data? How would they interface with us and each other?
Join us for a hack day to explore how we can build local-first AI that works for us. We will learn how to install and interact with our own models, on our computers, phones or even in the browser.
Brandon will be sharing what they are working on at huge.tech, the personal AI ecosystem that's yours, not a service you subscribe to. A physical device that lives with you, learns your preferences, and becomes more helpful each day.
We'll go around the room and ask what people are working on / need help with, as well as share our progress at the end of the day. You can share your personal and project links on the notes page.
