Your Future Job, Powered by AI
+400 Points
$10000
You've probably heard two contradictory messages about the future of work: "AI is replacing entry-level jobs" and "you need experience before anyone will hire you." Both feel true, and that tension is real.
But here's what's also true: the professionals using AI tools every day are running into real gaps. These are things the tools don't do well, problems people still solve manually, and frustrations nobody has bothered to fix. Those gaps are opportunities. This Challenge asks you to find one problem and design something that actually addresses it. The best submissions won't be the most ambitious. They'll be the ones where you can tell a real person's real problem was truly understood. Get ready to wow the KPMG judges. This Challenge addresses the question:
What's one real problem in a career that you (and your teammates) are genuinely interested in, and how could AI help solve it?
This Challenge runs from April 13th through May 25th, 2026
Prizes: 1st Place: $5,000 🥇| 2nd Place: $3,000 🥈| 3rd Place: $2,000 🥉 | Please note: For team entries, prize amounts will be divided equally among team members.
