A.I.L Technologies flying Bike Clip: Cost $730,000 Dollars!😂😅 Anyone want to buy one? Is it worth the cost? https://youtu.be/Nt9bTGxIr8I This Company has now closed down in January 2024; https://evtol.news/ali-technologies-hover-bike/ This flying bike's cost is as much as to purchase the Hills HX 50 5 seater helicopter. The HX50 has major advantages compared to the A.I.L flying bike. So which one would you buy given the fact of the flying bike flight limitations compared to the Hills HX 50 5 seat high speed helicopter. https://www.hillhelicopters.com We can discuss some related past VTOL projects to the latest advanced high speed Hybrid Helicopters/Tilt Rotor design concepts. We will also look into the newest multi billion dollar rise of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) VTOL flying bikes/cars being developed,built and testex in the US and around the world. Also we can look at the latest Tilt Rotor VTOL aircraft technologies being presently developed. Main Topics for discussion!: Present VTOL Flying Bikes. https://youtu.be/Nt9bTGxIr8I https://youtu.be/Hk6kF2eOxOQ https://youtu.be/msu3PlAxAoM https://youtu.be/NFFwWYvHe18 https://youtu.be/eLFNgzD7cPo Any person interested in UAM Flying Bikes VTOL Aerospace technologies is welcome to RSVP and to join us in this discussion. Venue is to be set in Dublin City at a later stage.

Welcome to an evening with IBM Research where we discuss AI, Agents, NASA and everything in between. An event hosted by **IBM Research** \- PyData Ireland is excited to be a community partner\. This is an inaugural **Open Source Science Dublin** meetup, where cutting-edge scientific research meets open-source technology, AI, and cloud-native infrastructure. ​ Expect **technical deep dives**, **cross-disciplinary conversations**, and (of course) **pizza** 🍕. For this first event, we’re exploring one of the most exciting frontiers today: **agentic systems for scientific discovery**, and how autonomous and semi-autonomous AI systems are transforming the way research is conducted, validated, and scaled. ​ You’ll see real-world systems in action, hear from both applied and research perspectives, and walk away with a clearer picture of how agents are moving from hype to scientific infrastructure. ## **Talks** ​**Accelerated Knowledge Discovery at NASA: Building an Agentic AI Research Companion** * **Speaker:** James Barry, Staff Research Scientist, IBM Research * **Description:** A practical look at NASA’s AKD platform: a chat-driven frontend orchestrating a multi-agent backend (planner + literature/data/code search) to turn questions into traceable, end-to-end scientific research—faster, more systematic, and with human oversight. ​ **Production-Ready AI Agents: Containerization, Sandboxes, and the LangChain Stack** * **Speaker:** Fabio Lorenzi, Staff Research Scientist, IBM Research * **Description:** Building secure, scalable AI agents for industrial time series analysis using isolated code execution, LangGraph for agent orchestration, and FastAPI for production deployment—bridging foundation models and real-world maintenance workflows. **Science in the Agentic Era: Structured Experimentation with *ado*** * **Speaker:** Michael Johnston, STSM, Discovery Systems; Manager, Next Generation Systems, IBM Research * **Description:** A research-first framework for agent-assisted discovery: *ado* encodes the problem space and experimental plan as schemas, enabling agents to propose and refine studies while keeping every run transparent, reproducible, and scientifically auditable.

Tuesday, June 2nd, 5:00–8:30 PM Eastern Central Ohio Chapter Meeting IN PERSON IN COLUMBUS How I Get Private Lenders and Partners to Fund My Deals If you can’t fund it, you don’t have a deal. And right now, funding is where more investors are getting stuck. Private lenders are more cautious. Partners are asking better questions. And deals that look good on paper still fall apart when the money doesn’t show up. That’s why we’re bringing in a panel of investors who are actually getting their deals funded right now. You’ll hear how they’re finding money, structuring deals, and building relationships that lead to repeat funding. Here’s what you’ll learn: * Where they’re finding private lenders today * How they start conversations that lead to funding * What makes lenders and partners say YES * How they structure deals to be fundable * The biggest mistakes investors make when raising money * How to build repeat funding relationships **Early Session (6:00–7:00 PM Eastern):** **Having Trouble Finding Tenants? How Community Shelter Board Can Help** Nicholas Brenner will walk you through programs designed to help rapidly rehouse tenants, including financial support that can stabilize your rentals. **The Deal Room (7:00–7:30 PM Eastern)** Bring deals, funding needs, buyers, and problems.
