Reflections On Our Recent AI "Think-A-Thon"

MongoDB's Developer Relations team hosted a second AI Build Together event at MongoDB.local London, which they refer to as "think-a-thons." Unlike hackathons, these events focus on discussion and ideation rather than coding. The event brought together fifty attendees from various industries and leading AI innovators who served as mentors. Participants joined workflow groups based on their industry or area of interest and brainstormed AI-based solutions to common problems. The discussions were lively, with ideas ranging from a personalized AI education coach to an AI tool for healthcare providers. MongoDB plans to host more events like this in the future.
