If you throw AI at a bad codebase, you're going to get worse results. Garbage in, garbage out.
And holding it together in your head will land you in cognitive debt.
But these problems have a 20-year old solution: deep modules.
Here's how:
The last time we ran a hackathon at @PodiumHQ , it turned into our fastest-growing product in company history. We're doing it again, and this time anyone can compete.
A week after ChatGPT launched, we ran an internal hackathon. One team built an AI sales agent that could convert inbound leads into scheduled test drives. That became Jerry. Jerry scaled from $0 to $100M in AI ARR in under 24 months.
It all started with a weekend and a team willing to just go build something.
We're doing it again. On March 14th, we're opening our doors at our HQ in Lehi, UT for an AI Engineering Hackathon. $10,000 to the winning team.
This will be a competitive, invite-only event where you can explore new ideas and push yourself alongside other top engineers.

What we gain is also what we lose. What creates our positive experiences will define our negative experiences. This is a difficult pill to swallow. This is why our problems are recursive and unavoidable.
I did not grow up in Utah but have learned to love this state the last 20 years that I have been here. This article is a perfect description of how a people can work together to make a better world: americanaffairsjournal.org/2…
Saying yes to every great idea that comes our way means we have no strategy. There are many "billion-dollar ideas" out there but the key is in the execution AND exclusion.
Just listened to an amazing talk by @dduffett on why geek's don't give great presentations. I really need to have to figure out how to get this to the rest of my dev team! Thanks Dave! #cluecon15
Nothing like finding a much cheaper, more stable carrier at #ClueCon15. SignalWire looks amazing and I'm looking forward to testing it out! Well done @SignalWire team!
“People are embraced or condemned according to their beliefs, so one function of the mind may be to hold beliefs that bring the belief-holder the greatest number of allies, protectors, or disciples, rather than beliefs that are most likely to be true.” -Steven Pinker
This is why people hold on to false beliefs even after they have been proven false. We often embrace things we think will make us the most friends because we are still herd animals and getting separated or kicked out of the herd was a death sentence.
