Talk to me, Hamburg! Hackathon

After great reviews of TALK TO ME, HAMBURG! and TALK TO ME, BERLIN! -both hackathons for natural language interfaces organized by Voice enthusiasts in Berlin and Hamburg - we would like to offer the best of our collective experience in a series of trainings. Each of the trainings/workshops will focus on a specific area of expertise within the voice echosystem.

Karile Klug / Talk To Me Hackathons

<H2>Natural speech interfaces for the next generation – NOW</H2>
Unlock the power of natural speech interfaces Thursday 23th November – Saturday 25th November. Come to design and build your own voice-controlled systems, using Google Homes, Amazon Echos, or your virtual platform of choice.
<H3>CHALLENGE</H3>
New developments have made it possible to communicate with devices using natural speech. Amazon, Google and Apple are stepping up their game to bring voice interfaces to the mass market. With that, a plethora of new  ways to solve user problems has opened up. Having experienced how relatively simple it is to create your own voice apps and skills, we would like to share this with you. At the same time, the challenge is to shift our minds from pictures and buttons to a new generation of interfaces that includes natural speech. How will you harness the power of VOICE?
<H3>EVENT</H3>
Create the voice application of your dreams in 48 hours at the gorgeous new office space of WeWork in the center of Hamburg. Bring your insights, creativity, ideas, problems and laptop. Food, caffeine (and other beverages), home devices and other essentials will be there waiting for you.
Don’t have a team and/or idea yet? No worries! On the first night you can get to know your fellow competitors and possible future teammates and hammer out your ideas. Of course you are also welcome to bring your idea and team ready to go.
<H3>ABOUT YOU</H3>
Curious about these new home voice devices everyone seems to be talking about? Dream of building an AI assistant that will put Iron Man to shame? Whether developer, writer, designer or anything in between – if you are excited about creating amazing voice interfaces for the next generation of devices, this event is for you.
A special shout out to the women: this event is also for you!
