Warsaw Model Trainers Hackathon

Warsaw Model Trainers hackathon Can a small Polish model pass the matura? 46 hours to find out. Teams take an open Polish model — Bielik, PLLuM or another from the allowed list — and put it through matura-style questions generated from Polish Wikipedia, graded automatically and scored in points. One board, everyone on it, prizes per track. Two tracks Harness — build around the model, with no training at all. Retrieval over Polish Wikipedia, a calculator the model can call, several attempts and a vote, a second pass before the answer goes in. Prompts and glue code; a laptop is enough. Scored on matura points. Fine-tuning — train a small model to be better at the exam. Take an open model of a few gigabytes and tune it on data you build yourself. Two size classes, GPU credits included. Scored on matura points plus the gain over the untouched base model. How the weekend runs Friday 18:00 — kick-off, teams form, rules and scoring explained. Saturday — you build, with mentors and judges on the floor. Sunday 16:00 — demos and scoring, 46 hours after kick-off. Before you come From Monday to Thursday there are four evening workshops and meetups on training small models, all at Kolektyw3. They are a good warm-up but not a requirement — the hackathon is open to anyone who shows up on Friday. Each session has separate registration on the Kolektyw3 calendar. Bring a laptop. No previous experience in model training is required — come with a team or find one on Friday. Venue The hackathon takes place at Kolektyw3, a community and event space for people building with emerging technologies in central Warsaw.
