Dedicated to helping the technical and business community learn more about AI and get hands on experience with AI development, research, and execution. Sessions include talks by experienced professionals, tutorials for beginners, and discussions around pressing topics in AI. Beginners are welcome!

🔷 We have also expanded our range of topics in the meetup to include anything "future tech" such as IoT, VR/AR, Game development, Cloud, etc.

🕺🏻In Person Event Only
Online events are more often than not, dull, less engaging, and diminish the social and networking aspects of the community. This event will be in-person only.
