Nace AI Hackathon: Lead the Cambrian Explosion of AI Agents
540 million years ago, life went from blobs to everything, all at once. Agents are having that moment right now. The question is which ones will survive.
On November 14, we're spending a day in San Francisco evolving agents that don't just chat, they decide.
Your evolutionary advantages
Drex, the brain. #1 decision model on performance & latency. Any decisions in miliseconds.
NDI, the eyes. Data intelligence that parses, classifies, extracts, splits, & grounds. It turns the primordial soup of PDFs, spreadsheets, scans, & emails into data your agent can actually use.
The mission
Form a team of 1-2 builders. Feed your agent messy real-world files. Watch it evolve into something that makes grounded, explainable decisions. Natural selection happens on the main stage, judged live.
Focus Tracks:
1) Apex Predator: Drex vs. the Giants
Take a task normally handled by a frontier LLM, hand the decisions to Drex, & prove it can be faster, cheaper, or more accurate. Teams are judged on measured results & the size of the improvement.
2) Swarm Intelligence: multi-agent systems
Build systems where multiple agents coordinate, compete, or negotiate, with Drex making every agent's calls. Think traders in a simulated market, NPCs that think for themselves, or a team of agents dividing up a research task.
3) Wildcard: weirdest use of Drex
The most creative, surprising, or delightful use of Drex wins. Art, music, games, or something gloriously absurd are all fair game.
All tracks: teams that also use NDI to bring real-world documents into their build earn bonus points!
