About us
AI, in plain English. Made in Canberra.
There's a lot of noise about AI right now. Headlines warn about the end of the world. Sellers promise magic. Most of us just want to know what it means for our work, our families and our town.
This is where we work that out together. We're more than 1,500 curious Canberrans: public servants, builders, students, founders, teachers, and people who've never opened a chatbot. Everyone is welcome, and no question is too basic.
What happens here
- Ask Away: a monthly open Q&A. Bring any question about AI and get an honest answer. No script. No sales pitch.
- Talks from people using AI in their real jobs, covering what worked and what didn't.
- A chance to meet other people in Canberra who are figuring this out too.
What you can count on
- Plain English. If we use a technical word, we'll explain it.
- Straight answers. We'll tell you what AI can do, what it can't, and when we don't know.
- No judgement. Ask the question you'd feel silly asking at work.
- Join from anywhere. Some sessions are streamed online, and the event page will always say so.
Who's behind it
Our community sponsor is Trellis Data, a Canberra team that has been building AI here since 2016. We spend our days reading the research and writing the code, so you don't have to.
It's supported by Workspace by black vc, our home at 4 Mort Street in the city, and by Ryujin Labs, who help Canberra founders turn ideas into companies.
Come along, bring a question, and leave with a clearer view.
