GPT Hackathon

GPT Hackathon

Two weeks after the Google Developer Group AI DevFest, Mariane, Hafsa, and Tanya hosted a GPT Hackathon.

I was lucky enough to be partnered with Rashmi Thakur who helped develop our demo of talking books.

We decided to build on the Ready to Date webapp I'd been hacking for the last two weeks and adapt it to a use case Mariane suggested - Helping parents deal with their kids. Rashmi imported the some relevant sections from the Resilience Booster: Parent Tip Tool from the American Psychological Association.

We then spent the majority of our time engineering the prompt for the GPT-4 OpenAI model to properly use our reference document and engage the user with incremental and helpful questions.

Even with our minimal prompt engineering the results were impressive - we can't wait to give the prompts a proper tune and couple them with comprehensive documents.

The icing on the cake was winning 4th place in the hackathon (thank you judges!)
