Special Edition Meetup! - C++ meets AI. See AI and C++ in practice.

Details

ACCU Cambridge is delighted to be joining forces with the biggest Practical AI Meetup in Cambridge.

We're diving into both AI and C++, exploring how these two forces are shaping the future of software engineering.

Why should you attend?

  • See how AI and C++ are being used together to build next-generation systems.
  • Connect with fellow engineers and innovators working at the intersection of performance-critical C++ and practical AI applications.
  • Productivity Superpowers for Engineers - A hands-on demo showing how AI tools can accelerate debugging, development, and optimization in C++ workflows.

What can you expect?
Talks covering different aspects of AI and C++ :

  • What I Learned Building With LLMs: A technical talk breaking down the process for building a product using AI with real-life learnings and insights.
  • Productivity Superpowers for Engineers: A hands-on demo showing how AI tools can accelerate debugging, development, and optimization in C++ workflows.
  • The Future of C++ and AI: A forward-looking discussion on how AI will change the role of C++ in system design, performance-critical applications, and developer productivity.

After the talks we'll have pizza, drinks, and time to connect with everyone around you.

As this is a Special Edition joint event we have limited spots available, so get your ticket ahead of time to avoid disappointment!

Agenda
6pm Doors open

6.30pm Welcome and introduction

6.35pm Building an MCP Debugger - the good, the bad and the weird by Mark Williamson
At Undo we've been building Agentic Debugging by connecting an AI Coding Agent to a time travel debugger.
This gives the AI the ability to understand your code and help you solve your bugs - and even solve them for you!
I'll cover what MCP (the model Context Protocol) is and what we learned building with it, finishing up with the demo of what we've made so far.

6.55pm Ramping up UI Testing for the AI Age by Pete Cassell
When creating web applications, how can you leverage AI to write your UI tests and have confidence that the features you ship are robust? We'll explore how to use graph databases and careful context-engineering to test front-end applications effectively. We'll be showcasing an early version of TextNexus.ai to create Playwright test-code that evolves with your application code.

7.15pm Wrap Up and closing remarks

7.20pm Pizza, drinks and networking

In association with Mindstone Cambridge. Sponsored by Clouxart and Undo.
