AI Showcase is a feature in Handshake that allows students and alumni to explore
and share projects that use artificial intelligence (AI). It’s designed to help
you learn from others and highlight your own work.
AI Showcase lets you:
- Discover how other students and alumni are using AI across different roles, industries, and majors
- Share your own AI-related projects with the handshake community
- Build a visible portfolio of your work directly on your profile
Projects featured in AI Showcase typically include:
- The problem the project addresses
- The AI tools or models used
- A description of how the project works
- The impact or outcome of the project
For a limited time, Handshake is partnering with OpenAI on a Codex creator Challenge—click the expandable header to learn more!
Codex Creator Challenge
Handshake is partnering with OpenAI to give currently enrolled university students in the U.S. and Canada $100 in Codex credits so they can experiment with building real projects using AI—at no cost and without entering a credit card.
Through the Codex Giveaway and Codex Creator Challenge, students can use Codex alongside ChatGPT to build apps, tools, and other portfolio-ready projects, then showcase their work through Handshake’s AI showcase and related campaigns.
To learn more about the offer and challenge in Handshake, check out Codex creator challenge.
