This is our first edition of a new series in Bali focused on actually making money with AI.
How I AI: every builder uses AI differently, we showcase the tools, the workflows, and most importantly, discuss how it all turns into revenue.
No theory. No hype. No "AI will change everything" keynotes.
Just builders showing what they're doing, what's working and how much it's making.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
THE VIBE:
Trendy venue. Light music. Amazing food. Cool drinks. Think: intimate tech dinner meets live demo night.
Come early, grab a seat, order some food.
This isn't a lecture hall. It's a room full of builders sharing what actually works.
