CAMEL’s Mastering Multi-Agent Systems Hackathon, held in Oxford, brought together tech enthusiasts, academics, and AI professionals to explore and create innovative multi-agent solutions. The event combined workshops, networking, and a hackathon that ignited creative approaches to multi-agent applications.
Hackathon Highlights
1. Introduction to CAMEL Multi-Agent System
Our founder, Guohao Li, opened with CAMEL’s mission: Finding the scaling laws of agents.
Prof. Philip Torr (Professor at the University of Oxford and Chief Scientific Advisor at CAMEL AI and Eigent AI) delivered an inspiring talk on the future of agentic AI.
2. Hands-On Learning with CAMEL Workshops
Workshops led by CAMEL experts Roman, Sally and Caelum gave participants hands-on experience with the CAMEL framework on Google Colab, empowering them to design and develop multi-agent models.
