What a thrill it was to dive into our company-wide AI hackathon! TAP 🚀🏆 With Serena Savini, Ahlam Atout, Małgorzata Szubartowska, and Duha Abusamra onboard, we seamlessly blended our diverse talents and perspectives to craft a winning 🥇 solution aimed at enhancing learner motivation. Not only did we brainstorm and ideate, but we also developed a functional prototype that showcased our innovative approach. In the dynamic realm of AI, this collaborative effort not only strengthened our bonds but also showcased the immense potential when diverse minds unite towards a common goal. Here's to the power of teamwork and innovation! 💡 #AIHackathon #TeamTAP

What a bunch of legends! Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of joining my talented FlowState teammates (Kayden Leftly, Jack Drummond, Fiona Wharton, Yannik Behr, Christof Mueller, Florent Aden) at the Aotearoa AI Summit, hosted by the incredible AI Forum NZ. After winning the Wellington AI for the Environment Hackathon, we were invited to pitch our solution to a room full of NZ’s leaders in AI and Data Science — and I’m thrilled to share that we WON! 🎉 Our solution targets a huge issue: Wellington is losing 41% of its water supply to leaks—about 64 MILLION litres every single day. Water is life, and we need to protect our most precious resource! The problem is complex, with limited resources (an estimated cost of $1 billion a year for the next decade) and crucial info needed to identify underground leaks that aren't visible on the surface. These hidden leaks pose serious risks, like sinkholes, which threaten both the environment and public safety. That’s where FlowState comes in. We developed a system that uses Neural Networks, based on a synthetic dataset, to detect 90% of these leaks. Our solution aims to help decision-makers map and prioritize repairs, ensuring resources are directed where they’ll have the biggest impact. A massive shoutout to the AI Forum, all the speakers, the other hackathon contestants (who also had some brilliant ideas!), sponsors, and everyone involved in organizing the event. The AI Forum has done an epic job of bringing the community together! I believe the hackathon approach is an incredible way to get passionate people together, cultivate innovation, and rapidly hack out an MVP for important environmental challenges like this. It would be amazing to see more of this approach driving innovation across New Zealand. If you're involved in water management, funding, AI solutions for sustainability, or have any suggestions on how we can move this project forward, please get in touch!

🎉 Our team has done it again! We are thrilled to announce that we clinched the top spot at the recent Winter Hackathon! This achievement is not just a win but a testament to our team's innovative spirit and relentless dedication. A massive shoutout to my brilliant teammate, Kenthony Garcia, whose expertise and creativity were pivotal to our success. Your insights and dedication were nothing short of inspiring. I would be remiss not to acknowledge the instrumental guidance and visionary leadership of Saikat Maitra Priyanka Mehra and Vijay Kumar. Their foresight to harness the potential of Generative AI not only shaped our winning idea but also underscored the transformative power of AI in solving complex challenges. Our project, centered around Generative AI, aimed to showcase its vast capabilities and potential applications. The journey from concept to victory was filled with learning, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. This win is a celebration of teamwork, innovation, and the boundless possibilities that Generative AI holds for the future. It's a reminder that together, we can turn visionary ideas into reality. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us along this journey. Here's to pushing boundaries and setting new benchmarks in the world of technology! #HackathonWin #GenerativeAI #Teamwork #Innovation #ThankYou #cvshealth
