About This Event

Build the with the cutting-edge of realtime AI

Reactor and Google are bringing together New York's strongest engineers, researchers, founders, designers, and creative technologists for a one-day World Models Hackathon at Google's NYC office.

World models are opening up a new frontier for AI: systems that can understand environments, simulate outcomes, and generate experiences that respond and evolve in real time.

What You Can Build

  • Interactive worlds, games, and AI-native media

  • Simulations for embodied-AI systems

  • Creative or developer tools powered by world models

Who Should Apply

Engineers, researchers, founders, designers, artists, and technical builders curious about world models and the future of interactive AI.

You can apply solo or with a team. Come with an idea or find collaborators in the room.

What to Expect

  • A full day of focused building

  • Technical resources and support from Reactor and Google

  • Feedback from experienced builders and researchers

  • Final demos, judging, and prizes

  • Food, drinks, and access to NYC's top AI builder community

Capacity is limited, and applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Apply only if you can attend and participate for the full day.
