alt Hacker NewsSooo, are you scouting talent and good ideas with this, or is it the kind of hackathon where people give up rights to any IP they produce?
Not to be rude, but these days it's best to ask.

What? No. That’s crazy. (I believe you. I’ve just … never heard of giving up IP rights because you participated in a hackathon.)
This is about community and building fun things. I can’t speak for all the sponsors, but what I want is to show people the Open Source tooling we work on at Daily, and see/hear what other people interested in real-time AI are thinking about and working on.

Wow, I have been attending public hackathons for over a decade, and I have never heard of something like this. That would be an outrage!
As someone who's attended events run by Daily/Kwindla, I can guarantee that you’ll have fun and leave with your IP rights intact. :) (In fact, I don't even know that they're looking for talent and good ideas... the motivation for organizing these is usually to get people excited about what you're building and create a community you can share things with.)
