I'm Huzaifa, a computer science student from Karachi, Pakistan.</p> <p>I've joined Hacktoberfest 2026, completed the pre-event survey, and connected with the MLH Discord community. I've also earned the physical sticker pack.</p> <p>Now I'm exploring the DEV Challenges and looking for a practical project to build with open-source AI. The first version needs to be something I can finish and test.</p> <p>I haven't chosen the project yet. First, I need a real problem to solve. Then I'll check whether it fits the challenge theme.</p> <p>If you're participating too, I'd like to hear what you're working on. What's one repetitive task in your daily life that you wish a small tool could handle?</p> hacktoberfest ai opensource
