PROJECT PYGMALION

About the Challenge

Ever wanted to bring code to life? ✨

Inspired by the myth of Pygmalion, we're challenging you to create the next generation of AI avatars. Project Pygmalion is a 36-hour hackathon in the heart of Chicago where the city's brightest student builders will gather to design, develop, and ship something truly incredible. This is your chance to push the boundaries of realism, memory, and human-computer interaction.

Getting Started

• Who? This is for students who are passionate about building. If you love to create and ship cool AI projects, this is your playground.

• When? Friday, September 27th, 4:30 PM – Saturday, September 28th, 6:30 PM CDT.

• Where? The awesome Drive Capital HQ in Chicago (215 N Peoria St).

• Teams: Come with your own crew of 2-4, or fly solo! We'll have a fun team formation session to make sure everyone finds a squad. 🤝

• What to Bring: Just your laptop, chargers, and any other hardware you need. We'll provide the monitors, Wi-Fi, and non-stop food, drinks, and inspiration!
