🤖 AI Hackathon To better prepare ourselves to serve our robot overlords, we ran an internal AI hackathon within the Giveth Galaxy. Submissions include projects built using tools like ChatGPT, Midjourney and Kaiber with thousands of dollars in prizes. Let us know if you’d be interested to participate in future rounds!
