Hello everyone! Who doesn't love Pizza! We'll be meeting at Andy's Pizza in Tyson's Galleria and doing some old-fashioned networking, beer-drinking, and pizza-eating. For this event, Pizza and the fun will be sponsored by CodeRabbit! About CodeRabbit: CodeRabbit helps software teams ship faster without lowering the bar for quality. As people and AI coding agents produce more code, teams need a reliable way to understand and review those changes. CodeRabbit’s approach is Agentic Change Management, which brings together four capabilities: validating proposed changes, prioritizing reviews by value and risk, explaining what changed, and identifying security vulnerabilities before and after merge. Our goal is a shared, independent layer of review that helps the whole team make informed decisions about what ships, whether the code was written by a person or an AI agent. Location: Andy's Pizza, Tyson's Galleria, 2001 International Dr, McLean, VA 22102 Overview: Join us at AI Innovators Network for our upcoming meetup in Tysons dedicated to exploring the latest trends in Artificial Intelligence.
