Hello CSSS Members!

We are hosting our annual Mountain Madness Hackathon from Feb 22nd to Feb 23rd.

[What is Mountain Madness]

Mountain Madness is the annual hackathon organized by the SFU Computing Science Student Society. Our hackathons are cozy, tight-knit events welcoming students from all University's of all skill levels and experience. The "Mountain" in the name homage to Burnaby Mountain, the original foundation of Simon Fraser University and the scenic location for a full weekend's worth of fun. The "Madness" part refers to the DeLorean and Rube Goldberg prizes we give to the madness [computer] scientists at the event!

The SFU AI Club holds weekly meetings, and half of the meetings are focused on the technical side (workshops, starting AI projects, code jams, etc) and the other half is discussions about the field (roundtable discussions, guest speakers, AI news, etc).
