The Next Interface Hackathon: Rethink how we talk to AI

​For three years, using AI meant typing into a box and waiting for text to come back.

​That era is ending.

The next interface isn't a chat window. It's worn, spoken, and always on.

​Glasses that listen.
A pendant that remembers.
A tracker you never charge.
A second self that watches your screen and acts before you ask.

​We're putting the founders building that future in one room with the people who want to build on it.

Half a day in San Francisco.

Real hardware on the table. Working demos, not slideware.

​The lineup is a short list of founders shipping the wearables that are pulling AI off the screen.

The founders in the room:

• ​Adam Cohen Hillel, Secondly - a personal AI "second self" that sees your screen and acts across every app you use. The chat box becomes a presence.

• ​Nik Shevchenko, Omi - the open-source AI wearable necklace, with 250+ developer apps already built on it. Always listening, always yours.

• ​AnhPhu Nguyen, Mira - AI smart glasses with no camera. They hear what you hear, recall every name, and translate 60+ languages in under a second. AnhPhu is the Harvard builder behind last year's viral I-XRAY demo.

• ​Andy Kong, Chargerless - a 7-gram health tracker powered by daylight. One minute of sun a day and it never needs a charger.

​What you'll build: pick a device, an API, or a live sensor stream.

Ship something a person could actually wear or talk to by the time we demo.

The strongest builds demo to the founders in the room.

​This is for builders, hardware hackers, AI engineers, and designers who think the keyboard is a temporary technology.
