NeuroForge is an autonomous software engineering agent built on AMD Developer Cloud, powered by the Qwen 3 large language model served via vLLM on AMD MI300X GPUs. Given a plain-English requirement and a tech stack choice, NeuroForge autonomously: 1. Plans the implementation by breaking it into clear steps 2. Generates production-ready, well-commented code step by step with real-time streaming 3. Reviews its own code for bugs, security issues, and improvements 4. Delivers the final output with a one-click download The entire pipeline runs on AMD Developer Cloud infrastructure, showcasing the performance of MI300X GPUs for LLM inference workloads. The frontend is built with Gradio and streams tokens live as the agent works, giving users full visibility into the autonomous coding process. NeuroForge demonstrates how AMD hardware combined with open-source models like Qwen 3 can power real developer productivity tools — no proprietary APIs, no cloud lock-in, just raw GPU performance running open models at scale.

In this hybrid hackathon powered by Arc and Circle, developers will build the next generation of Agentic economic applications using Circle’s Nanopayments infrastructure with settlement on Arc in USDC. For the first time, high-frequency, usage-based transactions between users, APIs, and AI agents can operate without gas overhead eroding margin. Arc provides stablecoin-native settlement with predictable, dollar-denominated USDC fees and deterministic, sub-second finality — enabling real-time coordination and economically viable per-action pricing at scale. 📅 April 20 – 26, 2026 • Apr 20 – 25 (Online): Submit projects by Apr 25. • Apr 25 (On-site Build – SF, CA): Teams refine projects. • Apr 26 (On-site Demos & Awards – SF, CA): Live pitches & winners announced.
