"Build with AI" event is community-led technical workshops and hackathons by Google developers. These events are designed to empower developers to both learn about and apply their skills to the latest trends and products in Generative AI, as offered by Google.

In the morning session, learn the latest developments and best practices in generative AI through deep-dive tech talks. Then, dive in and immerse yourself in hands-on code labs to further enhance your skills. In the afternoon, you will form teams and collaborate to build AI applications on Google Gemini to address real-world problems, push the boundaries of technology, and compete for grand prizes. Apply now to come hack with us.

Get free Google generative AI training. This hands-on event is for developers of all skill levels. Together we will work through several Google Gemini and Vertex AI labs. You will also form a team to build your own generative AI applications with Google Gemini models and demo your projects. After the event, you will have free access to more labs you can finish at home.
