Student-led hackathon focuses on AI to solve problems
Two Waterloo Engineering and computer science students organized a day-long hackathon with more than 50 participants at the Pearl Sullivan Engineering IDEAs Clinic.
Led by Faraz Khoubsirat, a third-year software engineering student, and Bing Hu, a computer science PhD student, the hackathon challenged participants to solve real-world problems using Cohere's powerful AI engines and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) APIs.
