Building and Throwing Away Apps with AI

Online

About this event

For decades, building software was expensive.
If you wanted to explore an idea, test a theory, visualize some data, or answer a question, you often had to invest hours, days, or even weeks creating the artifact first.

AI changes that equation.

In this livestream, we'll use Codex and AI-powered tools to rapidly create applications, dashboards, simulations, reports, and utilities—not because we intend to keep them, but because we want to think with them.

We'll build things.
We'll learn from them.
We'll throw many of them away.

Topics may include:

  • Generating applications from simple prompts
  • Creating mock data and analysis tools
  • Building dashboards and visualizations
  • Exploring ideas through rapid prototypes
  • Using AI agents to automate workflows
  • Harvesting reusable skills from completed work
  • Deciding what is worth keeping—and what isn't

The goal isn't to create production software.
The goal is to explore how AI dramatically lowers the cost of experimentation and allows us to investigate more ideas than ever before.

Come watch ideas become software, software become insight, and insight become the real deliverable.

DevFound's AI Copilot ingests your profile, goals, and live job data to deliver curated matches in seconds. Every match includes a resume variant, suggested referrals, and interview prep so you can act immediately. The more feedback you provide, the sharper the Copilot becomes.

AI-led job searches shrink the hours spent sifting through boards and formatting resumes. DevFound pairs automation with your personal outreach, so you reserve energy for interviews and negotiation. Traditional networking still matters, but AI gives you a lift before you even send a message.

Modern AI roles expect comfort with production-grade code, data fluency, and practical ML tooling. The strongest candidates pair deep technical chops with storytelling—translating model impact to product, GTM, and exec partners. Continuous learning keeps you ahead as stacks evolve.

DevFound rewards active seekers. Keep your profile fresh, respond to match quality prompts, and enable alerts so you never miss a role. The AI prioritizes companies and teams that align with your feedback, accelerating both introductions and interview invites.

High-density tech hubs continue to host the deepest AI talent pools, yet distributed teams are catching up fast. Use DevFound filters to hone in on onsite, hybrid, or fully remote roles and watch openings expand across time zones.

DevFound aggregates thousands of remote AI openings and flags the nuances—core hours, async culture, and visa needs—up front. The Copilot also recommends how to position your distributed work experience so hiring managers know you can thrive on a remote team.
