AI SideQuest
AI SideQuest is a gamified learning experience where teams solve real-world AI challenges using the CoreWeave Platform with access to our industry leading infrastructure and SaaS tools. This is a hands-on experience. That means no slides and no lectures, just problem-solving with live leaderboards and real prizes.
What to expect at an AI SideQuest
Learn by doing
Solve real challenges in interactive Marimo notebooks with live code execution, pre-configured environments, and immediate feedback on CoreWeave infrastructure.
Team competition
Compete individually or form teams and compete on live leaderboards. Track your progress in real-time, see how you stack up against other teams, and collaborate to climb the rankings.
Real scenarios
Work with production-grade CoreWeave services: top line GPU compute like the H200 and GB300, CoreWeave AI Object Storage, Inference, W&B Models, Weave, Serverless RL.
Win prizes
Top teams earn real rewards. Previous prizes include Meta Ray-Ban smart glasses and CoreWeave credits. Complete quests, unlock achievements, and take home the win!
Example quests
LLM fine-tuning quest
Fine-tune large language models end-to-end using W&B Models for experiment tracking, CoreWeave AI Object Storage, and CoreWeave Compute for high-performance inference. Track metrics, compare runs, and deploy your optimized model.
