AI Meetup with H2O

Brief bio Paul Conyngham is the founder of Gamgee, a Y Combinator company developing personalised mRNA cancer vaccines for dogs. After 17 years in machine learning, Paul taught himself genomics and used AI to design a personalised vaccine for his dog Rosie, whose responsive tumours shrank by 50–75%. Talk outline \- Rosie’s cancer and why existing treatments were not enough \- Using AI to cross from machine learning into genomics \- The journey from tumour sequencing to an administered mRNA vaccine \- What worked\, what failed and what one patient can teach us \- Turning a year\-long manual process into repeatable software \- Why Gamgee is starting with dogs and where the technology goes next NOTE: Register for this event here : https://www.meetup.com/data-science-sydney/events/316413053

Sydney is home to some of the best AI engineers in the world, from early-stage startups to global enterprises. SYD AI Meet Up is where they come together. Whether you're shipping AI features in production, experimenting with AI SDK, or figuring out how AI fits into your stack - this is your room. The headline: Collaboration with Clickhouse What to Expect 6:00 – 6:30 PM: Pizza & Networking Grab a slice, meet fellow engineers, and connect with the community. 6:30 – 7 PM: Lightning Talks "We planted real CVEs in 16 repos to find out which AI model actually catches vulnerabilities. The best model is a surprise." Patrick Collins CEO, Dam Secure From Traces to Trust: Shipping Reliable LLM Apps with Langfuse by Muhammad Ali, Senior Solution Architect @ ClickHouse 7 PM – 9:00 PM: Networking & Wrap Up More details on the lightning talks: Patrick Collins CEO, Dam Secure We planted real CVEs in 16 repos to find out which AI model actually catches vulnerabilities. The best model is a surprise." Every new model is benchmaxxing and also test against the same public vulnerable repos, like OWASP Juice Shop. That makes the standard benchmarks essentially useless. So we built our own eval suite and benchmark. We mine CVEs from open-source commit history and replay the reverted fix back onto the codebase, across 16 repos. I'll show the results and give a sneak peak into how we built that eval suite and the results. The leading model, which we ran through Vercel will surprise you! This is a talk for developers interested in behind-the-scenes of eval suites and benchmarks. Traces to Trust: Shipping Reliable LLM Apps with Langfuse Building an LLM demo is easy; running one in production is not. This deep dive walks through how Langfuse helps teams move from "it works on my prompt" to measurable, debuggable, cost-aware AI systems. We'll explore tracing and spans for complex agent pipelines, prompt management and versioning, evaluation workflows to catch regressions before users d

Join us for an evening of insightful talks, valuable connections, and great company. One evening on what it actually takes to secure a software supply chain, from hardened container images through to what this looks like inside a regulated environment. Talk 1 - Engineering for a World Where Exploits Arrive Before the Advisory Speaker: Cameron Martin (Chainguard) Most teams meet their supply chain problem downstream, as a scanner report full of criticals and a patching queue that never empties. This talk looks at the other end of the pipeline: what changes when images are built minimal and rebuilt continuously, so vulnerabilities are removed at the source rather than triaged after they land in production. We'll cover the practical patterns teams are using for container hardening, how this plays with SBOMs, signing and provenance, and where it fits alongside your existing scanning and admission controls. Plus a forward look at the Chainguard roadmap and what's coming next. Talk 2 - Supply Chain Security in a Regulated Environment Speaker: Brad McCoy (Cuscal) The theory is one thing, running it inside an Australian financial services business is another. Brad shares what this looks like in practice at Cuscal: the platform decisions, the trade offs, and how container security and compliance requirements actually get met day to day without grinding delivery to a halt. An honest look at what worked, what didn't, and what he'd do differently. This is a relaxed, highly interactive evening built for platform engineers, security engineers, DevSecOps leaders and architects who are actively working through supply chain risk, container hardening and compliance. On the night: Free entry · Food & drinks · Networking · Live Q&A Seats are limited - RSVP to save your spot. See you there! 👋
