Artificial Intelligence

WAICY, at its core, is an AI competition. The first thing that we look for is the use of AI’s abilities in your project and a thorough understanding of what it means.

Technical Skills

Technical skills matter because they support the project execution. Does your project involve coding? Do you have a robust understanding of what you’ve built? Make sure you’re ready to answer these questions.
