Join us for a hack to learn and build agents that recursively self improve. Co-hosted by Sundai, Maritime, Autolab and The Foundry. We’ll experiment with team agents, workflow agents and model training agents. ✨Schedule✨ 10:00 Sundai hack intro for newcomers 10:15 Intros by Maritime, Autolab and The Foundry 11:00 Idea pitching and team formation 14:00 Check in #1 and lunch 20:00 Check in #2 and presentations ✨What is Sundai✨ Sundai Club meets every sunday to build a new AI app from scratch by the end of the day. We had done 130+ hacks back-to-back in the last 2 years - one for every sunday without stopping ✨What is Maritime✨ Maritime.sh makes it easy to host personal AI agents, agentic apps, and specialized agents for groups of users. You can build an app where every user gets their own dedicated agent, managed and hosted through Maritime, with simple tooling like the Maritime CLI and SDK. ✨What is Autolab✨ A platform for Autoresearch. Autolab.ai runs your ML experiments for you - agents plan, launch, and score thousands of training runs in parallel, on your GPUs, against your evals. ✨What is Foundry✨ A Coliving Space in San Francisco for Startup Founders. A founder hacker house with weekly dinners, weekend hikes, monthly demo days, and the kind of proximity that builds companies. ✨Our mission at Sundai ✨ "Push the envelope of what is possible to do with AI in a day." 1. Grow the Best Hackers learn to build fast with AI 2. Build things that matter users $$$ / github ⭐️s 3. Spread the Hacker Mindset teach the skills that we learn ✨Our Principles✨ Build. Ship. Shortcuts - Build: The purpose of Sundai is to get together and build things. Every Sunday. - Ship: get off the localhost. Deploy a simple webapp demo that works on the internet. Go for less, to do more. - Shortcuts: Shortcuts is an ingenious move that a hacker makes to build a system that works. In order to build fast - you always need to think in shortcuts. ✨Our Story✨ https://www.sundai.foundation/about ✨History of Hacking at MIT✨ https://www.sundai.foundation/about/hacker ✨Our Constitution✨ https://github.com/sergeicu/sundai-global/blob/main/Constitution.md Terms of Participation: By joining this event you agree to take care & vigilance of the following: - leave the room as you found it.
