OpenAI Stack Hack is over but there is more to come!

We are amazed by the complexity level of the submitted projects and the still expanding interest in AI technology. We believe that every 7315 participants is already a winner, as they know what is the technology of the future! We love the progress, because during openai codex hackathon only third of the people worldwide identified the technology! And during openai gym hackathon the amount od participants was also much smaller.

Also our community took our breath away, as we got familiar with all of the submitted projects and we saw so many projects that meet the most important value for lablab.ai, which is using AI to solve problems. We don’t support the overproduction of different apps clones. We value innovation and the impact it will have on users everyday live. We want to shape the world, create trends - not to be copycats.
