WELCOME TO THE TIDAL HACKATHON 2024
The Tidal Hackathon is a 24-hour hackathon that will take place in person at the student rec center at TAMU. Hackers will brainstorm, build, and test their unique machine-learning applications and be scored on a scale of creativity and execution. Participants will showcase their ability to apply novel concepts to variable problems by using their problem-solving and technical skills.
This year's hackathon prompt is to create an interdisciplinary project applying AI, machine learning, and data science to fields that have historically underutilized these technologies to address a real-world problem and create substantive change.
