about event

ROGUE PROTOCOL is a logic-driven coding event where participants interact with a rogue AI through a command-line interface. The goal is to understand it's behaviour, write custom override logic in Python and gradually regain control of its ethical system across multiple stages. Participants will edit specific files, trigger overrides and observe real-time responses from the AI as they attempt to outsmart it.
