Austin AI Developers Group

AI Meetup (April) for Real-Time Data for AI and GraphRAG

Wed, Apr 1 · 5:30 PM CDT

Capital Factory, 701 Brazos St, Austin, TX, US

Important: Register on the event website is required for admission.

Welcome to the AI meetup in Austin. Join us for deep dive tech talks on AI, GenAI, LLMs and Agents, hands-on experiences on code labs, workshops, and networking with speakers and fellow developers.

Tech Talk: The Convergence of Real-Time Data and AI
Speaker: Garrett Raska (Redpanda)
Abstract: The world of AI has its origins in batch processing of large data sets. In more recent years it has had to accelerate to faster and faster development cycles — feedback from real-time usage, RAG and MCP architectures for live data lookups. What's driving the convergence of AI and real-time data? And how can you ride the wave?

Tech Talk: GraphRAG in Action
Speaker: Shishir Tewari (Procore)
Abstract: Discover how GraphRAG transforms chaotic, disjointed corporate data into actionable natural language insights. This session explores a three-phase architecture offline entity resolution, Neo4j knowledge graphs, and local LLMs that eliminates hallucinations and securely bridges the gap between raw data and business intelligence.

Tech Talk: How to Make Your Data AI-Ready
Speaker: Jacob Prall (Snowflake)
Abstract: Most AI initiatives fail because they're built on data that isn't ready for the demands of AI workloads. The result? Poor results, wasted effort, and broken trust. How do you know when your data is AI-ready, and how do you make it ready?
In this webinar, we will introduce the AI-Ready Data Framework, an open standard that defines AI-readiness and provides a suite of agent Skills to help you assess your data, identify gaps, and apply remediations to make your data ready for RAG, agents, and training.

Key takeaways:

• How to tell if your AI problems are really data problems: A practical diagnostic lens for spotting readiness gaps behind hallucinations, weak retrieval, and more.
• How to set the right bar for each workload: Compare what RAG, agents, and model training each require so your team can prioritize the right investments.
• How to close the gap: Learn practical approaches teams use to address data-readiness gaps once they are identified.
