Meet Suman Debnath, Principal Developer Advocate for Machine Learning at AWS.
Suman has spoken at over 100 global events and meetups across multiple countries and has directed the AWS Developer Community expansion in India. He has also served as a judge at numerous hackathons.
In this podcast, we discuss the differences between open-ended hackathons and client-based hackathons. We delve into the elevator pitch at the end of the hackathon, discussing how to structure it. We also talk extensively about evaluating presentations, the challenges involved, and how judging teams sometimes change their minds after discussions. Additionally, we touch on large AI communities, with over 400,000 members, organizing hackathons open to anyone eager to learn more about AI.
