​Agentic AI meet-up

​A meetup for anyone interested in sharing and learning about Transformers, Large Language Models, Agentic Coding and how to effectively use this new technology in Software Engineering.

​We aim to bring talks that dive into:

• ​Foundations: Dive into the foundations of Transformers and LLMs to understand their architecture, capabilities, and limitations—empowering you to make informed decisions about their application.

• ​Agentic Coding: Get hands-on with Agentic Coding. Learn practical how-to’s, tips, and tricks for building and deploying AI-driven coding agents in real projects.

• ​Real-World Impact: Explore the real-world impact of Agentic Coding. Share and discuss insights, case studies, and strategies for leveraging AI to drive innovation and efficiency in your organization.

​AI Agents in the wild: from theory to practice

​Location: CordAI Space - Corda 6

Building an AI that pushes back: lessons from Arete - Jesús García Ramírez (Dataminded)

​LLMs are great at giving answers but surprisingly bad at challenging your thinking. They agree too easily, jump straight to code, and rarely ask the questions a good senior engineer would ask before you commit to a design.

​This talk introduces Arete, an open-source brainstorming agent that stress-tests your decisions before you write a single line of code. Expect a hands-on look at how it works under the hood: sub-agents that keep context clean, the shift from prompt engineering to context engineering, and how a handful of markdown files can turn a generic LLM into something that feels like a real brainstorming partner.

20:00 - 21:00
Build Your Own Agent: Hands-on creating agents— Joris Gillis (TrendMiner)

​The goal of the session is to create agents and skills to use in your daily life. We’ll provide a couple of examples and ideas (or you bring your own). We based on the recently won knowledge about agents, we start building agent skills.

​If you like, feel free to demo your agent at the end of the session.

​Note: bring your own Claude Code & API keys.
