Recently, I learned about a pretty cool hackathon organized by Xiaohongshu in Zhangjiang from April 7 to 10.
This event brought together 200 developers and technology enthusiasts to participate in a 48-hour sleepless development challenge.
The highlight of this hackathon is that it requires contestants to create a complete AI product from scratch — whether software or hardware, it doesn’t matter as long as it’s innovative.
I see that this event attracted both experienced developers and newbies eager to enter the AI field.
Everyone had the chance to showcase their skills and push the boundaries of what AI technology can do.
People worked very passionately; those nights must have been intense.
What’s notable is that this hackathon truly reflects the growing interest in AI startups.
It provides an excellent platform for innovation, giving participants valuable experience if they want to join this field.
It’s not just an ordinary event; this kind of hackathon has become a major source of inspiration for both observers and active participants in the AI era.
It clearly emphasizes the potential for breakthrough advancements in technology and demonstrates that creative ideas can be turned into reality within 48 hours.
