OWASP Top 10 For Agentic Apps and How AGT Helps Mitigate These

Online, New Zealand · Coding Night ANZ

As AI systems evolve from assistants to autonomous agents, the focus shifts from what the model says to what the system actually does. This talk introduces the Agent Governance Toolkit (AGT), a framework for bringing deterministic, runtime governance to agentic systems. We’ll explore why prompt-based safety is not sufficient for production scenarios, walk through the OWASP Agentic Top 10 risks, and look at how policies, identity, sandboxing, and observability can be applied to mitigate these risks in real-world architectures.

What is Law in the Age of AI?

San Francisco, CA, San Francisco Bay Area, United States
In person

AI is changing more than how we work. It is changing how power works. Our legal systems were built for a world where people, companies, and governments were the primary actors. Increasingly, software makes decisions. It shapes what we see, determines which options are available to us, and acts on our behalf, or on behalf of someone else. This is a harder problem than regulating a new technology. It is a new kind of power, and our institutions were not designed for this. Join us for a fireside chat with leaders at the forefront of AI and law on what happens when analog-era institutions meet a radically different kind of power — and what the law may need to become in response. Kanjun Qiu, CEO of Imbue, will moderate a panel with Meng Jia Yang, a lawyer working on AI regulation at OpenAI and a former law firm litigator, and Matt Boulos, general counsel and head of policy at Imbue. Doors open at 5:30pm and close firmly at 6:15pm. — Imbue is an AI company building tools to empower humans in the AI age. We're building toward an open agent ecosystem where you can understand, modify, and verify agents — so they only work in your interest. Learn about our work and what we stand for: www.imbue.com

Agents Anonymous — Milan Chapter

Buildo, Milano, Italy
In person

LLM, agenti e tutto il tooling AI stanno cambiando radicalmente il mondo dello sviluppo software. Agents Anonymous Milano nasce per creare uno spazio in cui confrontarsi, parlarsi ed essere euforici, scettici, gasati e confusi parlando di AI. Dopo la pausa estiva torniamo con una veste tutta nuova e, soprattutto, con un format che abbiamo ripensato ascoltando voi: i vostri feedback dell'ultimo appuntamento sono diventati i cambiamenti che troverete in sala. La novità più grande? Non c'è più un programma di talk definito in anticipo. Gli argomenti si propongono sul momento, si mettono ai voti e da lì parte la discussione. Niente panel di esperti, niente keynote, niente talk registrati o live streaming. Solo persone che hanno voglia di condividere e ascoltare quello che altri hanno imparato sul campo. Lo spirito resta quello dei lightning talk: interventi da 5 a 15 minuti per capire cosa funziona, cosa non funziona, i successi inaspettati, o i fallimenti di cui magari non hai parlato con nessuno. La differenza è che nessuno sale sul palco con una scaletta: si decide insieme, sul momento. Tu porta te stesso (e magari un amico!), noi ci mettiamo da mangiare e da bere! -- Hai già in testa un tema di cui ti piacerebbe parlare (o solo sentir parlare)?
