Session
Level 2 of 5: Beginner
First we started with Lovable. Vidisha has a design agency but not a website, so we used Lovable to build a website for her. She described her exact vision and the output came pretty close to whats she wanted. Also Dipika, who is an influencer, used Claude to make a mini-app for tracking brand deals.

Level 2 of 5: Beginner
Image and video generation, hands on. The main event was the Image Auction: ten AI-generated images of Kolkata went under the hammer, every team started with ₹1,000, and you bid before seeing the prompt. Only after the first hammer fell did the room learn the score: total word count of the prompts you won. At least one team paid heavily for a three-word image, which was the whole lesson. Telling a three-word prompt from a paragraph one, by eye, is a skill, and now everyone in the room has priced it with fake money.

Session
Level 3 of 5: Builder
We discussed what skills everyone was using, and we even built a writing skill on spot - that helps you write in a way that does not sound AI-generated.

Hackathon
Level 2 of 5: Beginner
Our first hackathon. Three hours to build, one hard rule: post a live URL in the WhatsApp group by 2:45. 6 teams showed working products to the room. Judging was blunt: does it work, is the problem real, would someone use it this week. Code quality was never a category. Team Homie's product took the prize, and one build outlived the day entirely: the member directory that became calaiclub.com, cream and ink and all, started as a hackathon project in this room.

Session
Level 1 of 5: First steps
Lot of new faces showed up for this one, but the talent still remained top-notch. Again, some were new to AI and some building heavily for a while. We met Krishnav, who is deeply knowledgeable about vibecoding and has built a few great products. Ahan used Claude to help with 3D modeling of products.
