Workshop: Intro to agentic AI
Intro to Agentic AI is the first workshop in the UZH.ai Students AI workshop series, led by Justinas Grigaitis
📅 Monday, Nov 23, 16:00–19:00, followed by a hangout at bQm 📍 UZH, Room SOE-E-02 (Schönberggasse 11)
💡 No coding knowledge required. You'll need a Claude Code or Codex subscription for the practical part.
This workshop is for you if you:
➡️ Still use chatbots instead of an agent harness (Codex / Claude Code)
➡️ Have heard of agent instructions, skills, hooks and tools but never used them in practice
➡️ Feel like you're falling behind in AI but don't know what to use it for
➡️ Use AI a lot and worry about losing agency (building up too much "cognitive debt")
What to expect
The session opens with a short presentation on where AI agents add real value in day-to-day work. After that, a hands-on part walks you through one of these workflows:
✅ Building an interactive study tool for exam prep
✅ Setting up a personal admin knowledge base
✅ Organising data work for quantitative research
Capacity: limited to ~35 participants. If the event fills up, UZH students get priority.
Stick around afterwards for a hangout at bQm!
