[6:35-7:00] Beyond Chatbots: Building Structured AI Tools with the AI SDK
👤Speaker: Kelly Choyce-Dwan
📝Description: Most AI talks focus on chatbots, but you don't need a chatbot to use AI. In this talk, I'll show how the AI SDK lets you quickly build focused AI tools with structured outputs and existing providers—no model training or complex setup required. I'll walk through a Korean grammar analyzer I built as a real example.
[7:00-7:30] Using ComfyUI to detect Magic The Gathering cards
👤Speaker: Kyle Tryon
📝Description: Comfy.org is a cool open-source no-code AI art generation tool, but it can do so much more. We are going to do a quick overview of what Comfy is, how you can use it, and how I used it to scan and identify MTG TCG cards.
