AISSA x Apart: AI Control Hackathon

​AI control research asks a simple question: if an AI system is actively trying to undermine your safety measures, can you still keep it contained?

​This hackathon is a weekend of building that infrastructure — control protocols, evaluation tools, red-teaming approaches, monitoring systems.

​We're hosting an in-person hub at AI Safety South Africa:

​Friday 19:00 - 21:30 — kick-off + live keynote screening
Saturday 10:00 - 15:00 — research and development
Sunday 10:00 - 15:00 — final development + submissions

​We will provide lunch each day. Top projects get prizes and a shot at presenting at ControlConf Berkeley in April.
