What we’re about
We differ from other local AI/ML meetups in the following ways:
- Local & social - We aim for local community building and idea sharing in the Ann Arbor / Ypsilanti area; most of our meetups are in-person.
- Generalist - We focus on the general topics of AI/ML, not on any specialized fields such as NLP or CV.
- Low barrier - Our participants are very diverse, including self-learners, business people, entrepreneurs, students, and those who just started their journey in AI/ML; no PhD degree is needed to participate.
We regularly meet the first Thursday of each month.

Object Lessons from Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
Ann Arbor SPARK Headquarters, 330 E Liberty St, Ann Arbor, MI, USThis talk will focus on the information needed to get started with language models and machine learning. Covering model specifications, their usage, and other considerations. We will review examples of programmatic applications and language model-assisted programming, or hybrid programming (~~vibe coding~~). You will learn how to compose context and control the response to get the best results, how to use these tools to create other tools, and what future inventions or projects use of these technologies might enable. Listen to what other engineers are too afraid to discuss while pushing the boundaries of theoretical software.
Pizzas and sodas will be provided by Ann Arbor SPARK to keep the energy up!
Whether you’re a student, researcher, entrepreneur, or hobbyist, everyone interested in AI/ML is welcome.
