The wait is over! We are excited to announce the winners of the Open Source AI Challenge with pgai and Ollama.
From finance bots to research assistants to SQL playgrounds, our team of judges had a lot to deliberate over. This was a particularly challenging prompt and we were impressed by all who participated. Even if you weren’t selected, we hope you’re proud of what you accomplished and learned some more about the inner workings and potential of “AI Magic”.
Below, we present our four winners.
Congratulations To…
