What we'll do:
This event will feature the following presentations:

Talk #1: Building TowleVision: A Local-First AI Media Production System in Python
Speaker: Tyrell Towle
Description: TowleVision is a local-first, model-agnostic AI media production system built primarily in Python. This talk explores the engineering lessons behind coordinating narration, image generation, captioning, rendering, review, repair, and publishing as one structured workflow. Using sanitized interface views and finished-media examples, Tyrell R. Towle, PhD, will discuss deterministic orchestration around probabilistic models, interchangeable local AI backends, artifact logging, targeted reruns, and the practical strengths and risks of building substantial software with AI coding tools.

Lightning talk: TBD
Speaker: Ben Stickley

Talk #2: Aging in Pandas: Building a Biological Age Clock from Public Health Data
Speaker: Ramkumar Hariharan
Description: "How old are you?" Simple question. You know the answer instantly — it's on your driver's license, it's the number people ask at parties. But here's the thing: that number is basically useless for telling you how healthy you are. I want you to picture two 50-year-olds. Same birthday, same age on paper. One of them has the blood chemistry of a 35-year-old — low inflammation, great metabolic markers, organs functioning beautifully. The other one's blood chemistry looks like a 65-year-old's. Same chronological age. Wildly different biological age. And it turns out biological age — not the number on your ID — is what actually predicts who gets sick, and who doesn't. Today I want

Agentic + AI Observability Meetup Seattle

Databricks - Bellevue, Bellevue, United States
In person

Join us for Agentic + AI Observability meetup on Thursday, October 22 from 5pm - 8pm PST at the Databricks Bellevue office, an evening focused on agentic architectures and AI observability: how to design, ship, and monitor AI agents that actually work in production. This meetup is built for engineers, ML practitioners, and AI startup founders who are already experimenting with agents (or planning to) and want to go deeper into the tech. We’ll cover real-world patterns, failure modes, and tooling for building reliable agentic systems in the broader open-source ecosystem. Whether you’re at an early-stage startup or an established company, if you care about getting AI agents into production, and keeping them healthy, this meetup is for you. Previous series speakers include Databricks, Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI and more. Why you should attend See real architectures: Learn how teams are designing agentic systems on top of data/feature platforms, retrieval, and tools, not just calling a single LLM endpoint. Learn how to observe what agents are doing: Go beyond logs and dashboards to structured traces, evals, and metrics that help you understand and improve agent behavior over time. Get hands-on with MLflow and observability tools: Watch live demos of MLflow, tracing integrations, and evaluation workflows for agentic systems. Connect with other builders: Meet engineers, founders, and practitioners working on similar problems, swap patterns, and find collaborators and potential hires. Parking Info: Paid parking is available in the office building’s garage. Use apps like SpotHero to find nearby parking options.
