Baidu listed several hackathon builds to show the range of use cases teams explored.
Examples included a music workbench that separates audio, transcribes notes, and outputs playable sheet music; an art mentor for kids that turns digital work into keepsakes and tracks talent over time; a travel companion that helps before, during, and after a trip; and a feedback agent that cuts a PM’s daily sorting time from four hours to 20 minutes.
