一句话简介:高通 Qualcomm 和 Liquid AI 在旧金山办的晚间端侧 AI 黑客松,⁠‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍⁠用 Liquid 基础模型(LFM)在高通 iQ9 硬件上做完全离线运行的 AI 项目。

看点:主题是「飞机要起飞了」——最后会关掉 Wi-Fi 逐个测试,联网才能跑的不算;先有 30 分钟端侧 AI 工作坊,再两小时组队开发,最后展示评审;不需要端侧开发经验,「能跑脚本就能上」;每队最多 4 人,可现场组队;须审核,提供餐饮

奖金:奖品待公布

截止日期:11 月 13 日(活动当天,旧金山线下)

活动日期:2026年11月13日 17:00—21:00(太平洋时间;北京时间 11 月 14 日 9:00—13:00)
