Coding costs nothing now. America is about to strike gold
The heat beams down on me. It’s another blistering hot day in Las Vegas, the last place you would expect SpaceXAI to host a hackathon, an event where programmers see what they can build in a few hours. I lift large packs of soda up the stairs — SpaceXAI hasn’t provided volunteer organizers with a humanoid robot (yet) to help with the manual labor of a hackathon.
TL;DR
- Hackathons have been reduced from two days to two hours due to artificial intelligence.
- Participants can now build fully functioning games hosted on a website in just two hours.
- Examples of projects include an augmented reality boxing game and a wizard game with stunning graphics.
- Engineers involved often have full-time jobs and side-hustle software businesses.
- Entrepreneurial constraints are time and money.
