​Session 1: Running Local AI
Pratik Patel, AI Data Engineer and Developer Advocate at Hugging Face

​This presentation covers the basics of AI models, running them locally, why run local, and the limitations... but bring your questions about running AI models locally!

​Session 2: Meet the Agentic Development Team
Jeremy Davis, Field Architect at Docker

​This session covers how to integrate AI coding agents into your development team as specialized collaborators, not just tools.
Key Takeaways:

• ​Role-Based Collaboration: Assign distinct agents to coordinate, write code, and independently review pull requests using Slack, Git, and persistent instructions.

• ​Reliability & Guardrails: Replace vague prompting with clear specifications, automated boundaries, and mutation testing to ensure code quality.

• ​Developer as Architect: Shift your focus from micromanaging lines of code to designing the environments, roles, and automated feedback loops that keep agents effective and trustworthy.
