Christopher Kenna is confirmed to speak on practical AI workflows. Pizza and drinks to finish. Free, capped at 200 places.
it's demo-led and pitched at mixed levels, so founders, engineers and managers all get something. Best for people deciding how to apply AI at work who want to see tools running live.
