About this Event
& Presents “Visions of the Future Hackathon”
Where is humanity headed as AI, robotics, and other breakthrough tech reshape our world?
If you've ever imagined how our future might look like, this event is for you.
Join us for a non-technical hackathon where curious minds come together to envision tomorrow's utopia… or dystopia, through short stories (vignettes) paired with AI-generated visual art.
Teams will collaborate, build on each other's ideas, and create shared visions of possible futures. The final outputs will be compiled into a physical book and locked into a digital time capsule, capturing our collective hopes, dreams, and fears in this exact point in history.

- Technologists
- Social Scientists, Philosophers, Historians
- Futurists
