Description:

On the AI Hub page, when the user scrolls to the bottom section titled 'Join the AI community' and fills in only the email field while leaving the first name and last name fields empty, the form is submitted successfully. This indicates a lack of proper form validation for mandatory fields.

Current URL:

https://www.topcoder.com/ai-hub

Steps to reproduce:

Navigate to https://www.topcoder.com/ai-hub.
Scroll down to the bottom section labeled 'Join the AI community'.
Enter a valid email address in the email input field.
Leave the first name and last name fields empty.
Click on the submit button.

Actual results:

The form submits successfully despite missing first name and last name inputs.
No validation errors or warnings are displayed.
This could result in incomplete or invalid user data collection.

Expected results:

The form should validate that the first name and last name fields are not empty.
Submission should be blocked or appropriate error messages should be displayed until all required fields are properly filled.
Only after entering all mandatory details should the form successfully submit.
