Dublin — Week of 13 Jul 2026

with Mayug Maniparambil (Research Scientist, Fin) · Ivo Garais (AI Research Engineer, Tenable) · Tiernan Haugh (Product Designer, Nile)

AI Tinkerers Dublin gathers at Fin HQ for a technical show-and-tell on the architectural mechanics of LLMs. The headline talk, “Depth vs. Recovery: How Reinforcement Learning Reshapes the Reasoning Vocabulary of LLMs,” is a 30-minute deep dive from Fin research scientist Mayug Maniparambil, followed by rapid five-minute community demos — raw, live walkthroughs of active builds — and a hands-on Science Fair for one-on-one code feedback. A curated, screened room of engineers, founders and researchers working on agentic AI, RAG, evals and production AI infrastructure. Free; attendance is manually screened.

A casual evening for anyone curious about where sport and technology meet. No panels, no presentations, no agenda — just drinks and good conversation at O'Reilly's by Tara Street Station. Whether you work in the industry or just follow it, all are welcome. Brought to you by Sports D3c0d3d.

The weekly Dublin Tech Social at Madigans on Leeson Street — free afterwork drinks and networking for anyone in tech, data, AI, or IT. No agenda, no speakers. Show up, grab a drink, and meet the Dublin tech community.
