AI Tinkerers Ho Chi Minh City: From Prompt to Agent
On March 7, 2026, AI Tinkerers Ho Chi Minh City is convening a technical meetup focused on the architectural shift from passive chatbots to autonomous agents. As frontier models like Claude 4.6 and GPT 5.3 Codex push the boundaries of reasoning and tool-use, the challenge for builders has moved from prompt engineering to engineering reliable action-taking systems.
This event is designed for active builders—engineers, researchers, and founders—who are moving beyond simple RAG or chat interfaces into autonomous workflows. We are focusing on the implementation details: how to manage memory, how to handle tool-calling failures, and how to orchestrate multi-agent teams.
Date: 7 March
Time: 2PM - 5PM
Venue: W Business Center event space at 200 Pasteur (https://maps.app.goo.gl/pELxJM5JvP6sf4ND7?g_st=ic)

2:30 PM: Technical Demos (5-minute deep dives)
3:30 PM: Science Fair & Open Networking
5:00 PM: Event Concludes
🎙️ Submit Your Demo Proposal
We are looking for technical demos of autonomous agents. Show us how you built your agent, the architecture behind its action-taking capabilities (tools, memory, browsing), and a live demonstration of it performing real-world tasks. This is a technical show-and-tell: show us the code and the logic, not just the product pitch.
Demos are capped at 5 minutes. No pitch decks.
🛠️ Focus Topics
Agentic vs. Chatbot: Defining the threshold where an application becomes truly autonomous.
Architectures for Action: Implementing tools, long-term memory, and browser-based execution.
Reliability & Constraints: Strategies for getting agents to take consistent, reliable actions in production environments.
Live Demos: Real-world tasks executed online, showing the raw logic and what happens when things break.
🥽 Curated Attendance
AI Tinkerers is a curated community. We screen all attendees to ensure the room is filled with active practitioners. When registering, please provide details about the specific agentic architectures or autonomous workflows you have experimented with and the challenges you faced in achieving reliability.
Registration is required and space is limited to 150 builders. The exact venue in District 3 will be shared with accepted participants.
