About us
-----------Where humans meet machines.
From (driverless) cars to (delivery) drones, everything is getting smarter. The pace of conversion justifies the fear it entails. But then there is a flip side; where smart devices are to make us become smarter.
The group is designed for everyone who view artificial intelligence (AI) not in the usual way—as a potential replacement for people—but instead as a useful companion and support to humans, altering human social behavior and opening new vistas.
"I think that we will be very proactive in terms of how we field AI systems, and that in the end we'll be able to get incredible benefits from machine intelligence in all realms of life, from science to education to economics to daily life." -Bill Gates
The group is designed to get coders, designers, technologists, artists, entrepreneurs, evangelists to explore AI in art, music, theater, film, design and how the process can be improved.
From introduction to basic concepts on anything related to it's application and implications; we intend to study all together through workshops, meetups, hangouts, keynotes and other modes.
Welcome onboard!

Agentic AI essentials + Hands-on: $0 AI agent in 15 mins
·OnlineOnlineEveryone is talking about "AI agents." Fewer people can tell you how they are built, let alone ship one.
This meetup fixes both. In ninety minutes, you will go from what is agentic AI to a chatbot answering questions by performing actions on your own website - built live, together, using Fernfly, a tiny model you can practically run for free.
No heavy theory, no giant cloud bills. Bring a laptop and leave with something that works.
Hosted by the team at Fernfly, an antelligent company.What you will walk away with
- A clear, jargon-free mental model of agentic AI: agents, tools, and why they beat a plain chatbot
- An understanding of when a tiny, task-specific model beats a giant general one
- A working website chatbot you built yourself during the session
- The know-how to keep running it for virtually $0
Agenda
- Welcome
- Introduction to Agentic AI (15 min)
- Task-specific small language models (15 min)
- Meet Fernfly (5 min)
- Build: a website chatbot for $0 (15 min, hands-on)
- Q&A and open floor (20 min)
- Wrap-up
Who is this for
- Developers and indie hackers who want a real, buildable intro to agents
- Founders and product people who want an agentic chatbot on their site without a cloud bill
- Anyone curious about agentic AI who prefers doing over slides
No AI background needed. Basic comfort with HTML and JavaScript helps the build, but you can absolutely watch and copy.
Before you arrive (optional, for the hands-on)
- A laptop
- A free account at fernfly.com
- A webpage you would like to add a chatbot to, or use ours as a template
