You Decide What Everyone Builds

The track with the most votes becomes the prompt. Pick one and confirm, then you will see what everyone else chose.

  • AI doing good

    Build an AI that solves a problem in your own community, with ethical guidelines and restrictions built into it.

  • AI for data sovereignty and privacy

    Build an AI that helps everyday people protect their personal information: an agent that reads a Terms of Service and names the red flags you are agreeing to, a tool that scrubs your public presence, or one that stops a grandparent handing her details to a scammer.

  • AI for the disabled

    Build an AI that makes everyday life more accessible for people with disabilities.

  • AI for technology

    Build an AI that improves on a piece of technology people already use.

Results appear once you have voted.

Step 2, know what you are walking into
