If you haven’t had a chance to submit your entry for the AI Writing Contest, the submission deadline has been extended to December 16, 2024. You now have two extra weeks to journey through the world of data collection for AI and LLM training for a shot at $2,500 in prizes.

AI is everywhere—from kids using it at school to professionals relying on it in their work, and even in your mom's Facebook group chat generating stickers. This contest shifts the focus from the flashy front end most users are familiar with to the unsung hero: data.

Since we launched in September, participants have shared unique insights on data collection for AI and LLM training. For example, @ayinketh discusses overcoming traditional web scraping challenges with Bright Data, while @adnanaleeza uncovers a sentiment analysis hack. Others explored everything from AI hallucinations to industry analysis.

With just two weeks left and $2,500 still up for grabs, now’s the perfect time to enter the contest.
