micro1 is hosting a free global online Eval Hackathon starting October 30 with $10K in prizes. Participants must find something today's frontier AI models still can't do in a domain they know well (software, finance, legal, healthcare, science, etc.) and turn it into a rigorous, reproducible eval. Solo participation only; requires domain expertise plus coding ability (AI coding tools like Codex or Claude allowed). Registration closes October 30, 7:00 AM GMT.
