Builder Socratic Seminar: Open Source, Local, and Private AI

​Builder is a monthly gathering for people who like to build—devs, designers, PMs, founders, and AI-curious. We explore the tools and systems shaping AI today, with a focus on open-source, privacy, and decentralization.

​This month, Builder will take the form of a Socratic seminar centered around open conversation, shared insights, and thoughtful debate. Anthony Ronning (CTO at Maple AI) and Austin Krauss (Spiral and Human Rights Foundation grantee) will facilitate an interactive discussion, using recent developments in AI to spark conversation while inviting attendees to share their own questions, observations, and perspectives.

​Dustin Dannenhauer (founder of Delegance AI) will also give a short talk on how Playbooks let agent teams do deep, novel coding and knowledge work, followed by a live demo of running them in Alinery.

​The evening starts with pizza and mingling from 6:00–6:30 pm, followed by discussion from 6:30–8:00 pm.

​Easy, free parking is available right by the office. Hope to see you there!
