Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a networking event for those in the tech industry in Berlin. We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.

Join us for an evening of live coding, honest career stories and AI agents running in production, hosted by Imagen AI! 🎊 About us: Imagen is developing disruptive technology for the professional photo editing market. We use the past editing history of each of our Imageners (clients) to create a personalized AI profile. That profile lets photographers optimize their workflow, cut down on painstaking editing work, and keep their unique editing style. Wedding, event and portrait photographers around the world use it to get back hours of their time. At this Meetup the people behind the product take the stage. React Runs Your Terminal: Let’s Build One Live Tal Moskovich, Senior Full Stack Engineer at Imagen AI Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, OpenAI Codex CLI, Prisma, Gatsby. What do they all have in common? They're React apps - just not in your browser. Ink is a React renderer that outputs to the terminal instead of the DOM, using the same Yoga flexbox engine as React Native, with full support for hooks and context. In this live coding session, we'll start from an empty index.tsx and build "Troll Code": a working AI-powered CLI, live! Compose terminal layouts with React components and Flexbox Manage streaming responses with useState and useEffect Handle keyboard navigation and real user input Push the renderer from ~30fps to optimized 60+ If you already know React, you're already most of the way to building your own dev tool, AI assistant, or interactive CLI. Starting Over: Are Our Boundaries Really Technical? Meirav Grimberg, Backend Engineer at Imagen AI As developers, are our boundaries really set by our technical knowledge? After four years deep in low-level development, I made the jump to backend and found myself starting over. In this talk, I'll share what that shift actually felt like: the fear of being "the junior" again, the skills that carried over in surprising ways, and the things that were completely new. Along the way, it changed how I think about career

A new feature allowing you to control Claude Code from the inside. by Alon Wolenitz Scale Your Claude: An Organization's evolution with Claude Code This talk follows the journey through four phases of organizational Claude adoption from developers using Claude locally, through shared engineering playbooks and automated workflows, all the way to running agents as production systems. by Tom Brovender Everyone Builds with Claude. Only R&D Ships. So I Can Sleep at Night Claude changed who gets to build software. At Imagen, that no longer means just R&D. Product, Operations, Support, and other teams can experiment, connect tools, and build working AI-powered solutions on their own. We decided not to fight that. Instead, we moved the boundary. Everyone can build. Only R&D ships to production. To make that possible, we built a harness that separates fast experimentation from production-grade software. It runs as a service on Kubernetes, with CI/CD, version control, and a shared execution layer. Every capability is packaged as a skill that combines scripts, connectors, instructions, and rules. That means people can move fast without needing to understand the infrastructure underneath. And when

Have you read ETOOMANYTHINGS? Run Fewer Agents, the recent blog post by exe co-founder Josh? Everyone seems to be building software factories these days. More agents, more tasks running in parallel, more dashboards to keep track of everything. But is more actually better? The post sparked a fun discussion online, and we thought it would be even more fun to continue the conversation in person. Speakers Josh Bleecher Snyder, co-founder of exe Josh Wills, engineering at DatologyAI Beyang Liu, amplifying human agency at Amp, prev. founder of Sourcegraph This will also be our first "official" exe.dev meetup, and we'd love to meet you all!

Every piece is on the board, every move is visible, and the laser always follows the same path through the same mirrors. If nothing is left to chance, what is actually left to play for? On October 27, Ai, a mathematics and engineering student at the University of Pittsburgh, will use Laser Chess as a starting point to explore what it means for a game to be deterministic, and what follows once every outcome is fixed by the rules and the moves. No game theory background required. Just bring your curiosity, and stay for drinks and conversation afterward. Tokyo Tech Talks #9「Laser Chess and the Consequences of Deterministic Games」は、10月27日（火）に開催します。 Laser Chessには、サイコロも伏せられたカードもありません。すべての駒は盤上にあり、すべての手は相手から見えていて、レーザーは同じ鏡の配置なら必ず同じ道筋をたどります。運の要素がまったくないとき、ゲームには何が残るのでしょうか。 10月27日のTokyo Tech Talksでは、ピッツバーグ大学で数学と工学を学ぶAiさんとともに、Laser Chessを出発点に、ゲームが決定論的であるとはどういうことか、ルールと指し手だけで結果が決まるとき何が導かれるのかを探ります。 ゲーム理論の予備知識は不要です。好奇心だけ持ってお越しください。トークの後は、ドリンクを片手に話しましょう。

Welcome to the Madrid ML Meetup! 🤗 If you're concerned about AI's fine print, this talk is for you. We'll begin with adversarial machine learning and data poisoning: how the data a model learns from can be used to manipulate it. Then we'll examine the factuality of LLM responses: why they can be convincing and false at the same time, even without an attack, and how to assess them. Finally, we'll move from answers to actions: what happens when agents rely on harnesses, skills, and tools to act on our behalf, and what permissions, boundaries, and controls we should put in place.🤝 Our speaker, Javier Carnerero Cano, is a Research Scientist at IBM Research and an Academic Visitor at Imperial College London. He holds a PhD in AI security from Imperial College London. His current work focuses on LLM factuality, data-source trust, data poisoning, misinformation, safeguards, and agentic-skills security, including collaboration with NASA on evaluating and correcting AI-generated scientific content. The event is organized by Machine Learning Circle, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, and ARQUIMEA Research Center, in collaboration with the Madrid City Council. 🏦

'Gradient Descending' is a series of roundtables on AI: curated deep dives with technical builders. Past roundtables discussions covered RL Environments, Evals, Fine-Tuning, Agent Frameworks, Open Source Models, and Knowledge Graphs with companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Scale AI and many more. For our second Gradient Descending session in Barcelona, we’re looking at voice AI from two very different sides: building the infrastructure behind it and getting it into the hands of non-technical customers. We’ll be joined by Jaime Farrés, co-founder of Flyboard, and Luke Miller, co-founder of SLNG, to compare what each side is seeing in practice. How do you build the underlying systems to be fast, reliable and affordable? And once the technology works, how do you deploy it for customers who don’t have technical teams, don’t speak in APIs and simply need the product to solve a real problem? We’ll talk about where the infrastructure layer and application layer meet, what each side needs from the other and what tends to get lost between a technically impressive product and something a customer can actually adopt and use every day. Agenda: Arrivals: 18:30–19:00 Roundtable discussion: 19:00–20:00 Drinks at the rooftop: 20:00–21:30 See past roundtables here: https://www.akashbajwa.co/t/ai-roundtables I agree that photographs and/or video may be taken during the event and used by the hosts on social media and in future promotional materials.

Every time your phone shows the right time, opens a photo or loads a website, it relies on open source software. Much of that software is looked after by a surprisingly small number of people, often unpaid and working in their free time. At this meetup, we’ll gather around the data story “The people holding up the internet” (from sheets.works). The piece digs into the history of the code behind billions of devices and asks a simple question: who actually keeps it running? What we’ll talk about: - How much of our digital infrastructure depends on just one or two maintainers - What can go wrong when critical projects have no backup, no funding and no recognition, from burnout to security incidents - Why money for open source tends to show up only after something breaks, and who gets left out - How the authors turned raw commit histories into a clear, human visual story, and what we can learn from that as data people - What we can do about it as developers, companies and community members Whether you write Python every day, are curious about open source, or just like a good data visualisation, you’re welcome. No prior knowledge needed. There will be time for discussion, questions and mingling. This is a women- and non-binary targeted event
