Devpost organizes the Model Training Hackathon sponsored and administered by Determined AI Model. The last date for registration is April 17, 2023.

About DEVPOST

Devpost’s mission is to inspire developers to build great software. We’re creating a world where every developer who wants to improve their craft or be inspired to build, comes to Devpost for that inspiration. To that end, we power most of the world’s software competitions (hackathons) on our platform.

Determined AI Model Training Hackathon

  • In the last few months, we’ve seen GitHub, CoPilot, ChatGPT, and AI-generated content explode.
  • The core of this AI/ML magic is the model.
  • Determined AI makes building models faster and easier for ML engineers, data scientists, and researchers.
  • Build and train an ML model with the fastest and easiest tool to build deep learning models at scale.
