Tech Talk: Demystifying Agentic Data Cloud and Data Agent Kit
Speaker: Sireesha Pulipati (Shopify, Google Developer Expert)
Abstract: Google's Agentic Data Cloud and Data Agent Kit have generated a lot of buzz, but what do they actually do? This talk cuts through the announcements to explain what these tools are, how they work together, and what they genuinely enable for data teams today.. Includes a live demo of Data Agent Kit in VS Code/Antigravity.

Tech Talk: Building a Data Native Agent: Cortex Code
Speaker: Umesh Unnikrishnan, Snowflake
Abstract: Most coding agents treat the data platform as a black box — passing queries in and results out without understanding what's underneath. This talk explains how Snowflake built Cortex Code differently: directly wiring the agent to Snowflake's metadata, compute, and governance layers so it reasons about your actual environment instead of guessing. We'll walk through the architecture behind that context-aware loop, show how open standards like MCP and agent skills make it extensible, and share what we learned benchmarking it against both public and internal data engineering tasks.

Tech Talk: Building Data Products with AI
Speaker: Ayanna Wade (AI4ALL)
Abstract: AI is transforming how data products are built by accelerating discovery, coding, and communication, but not replacing fundamentals. This talk explores what is changing, including rapid iteration and AI-assisted workflows, and what still matters, including problem definitions, data evaluation, and human judgment, along with some common failure modes and practical adoption patterns.
