AI Hack Days are community-run events for Developers or people who want to learn AI for free.
There will be something for everyone. Experienced AI developers can share ideas with other experienced developers. If you’re a beginner, then there’s plenty to learn on the day.
If you then want to build something yourself, you’ll need some of the Microsoft AI and/or Machine Learning (ML) tools already set up and installed. If you’ve never played with AI or ML before, it would be good to do a little bit of learning before the day but it’s not a requirement as all experience levels are welcome.
At this month's Sydney .NET User Group: Can AI replace developers? Come With Me If You Want to Code with TJ Gokken
Can AI replace developers? It's the hottest debate in tech, but tonight, we're putting it to the test—for real. In this AI-powered coding smackdown, two AI agents will battle it out in a heated debate, arguing whether AI will replace human developers or just be another tool in the toolbox.
Then, we'll push this showdown further with an epic coding challenge: AI vs AI vs Human in a battle to write the best F# game logic. Expect laughs, surprises, and a plot twist that will leave you questioning who's really in control.
