AI x GTM: Prompting Hackathon
We're bringing the TechTalk community together with Airwallex for an evening that's less talk, more do.
AI is everywhere. Every job description mentions it. Every interview question circles back to it. But most people still don't know what genuine AI fluency actually looks like in practice, or how to build it.
This event changes that. We're going hands-on.
