Day 2 Theme: Production-Ready AI & Agentic Design
Details
Welcome - 9:00 AM – 9:10 AM PST
Session 1: AI Sprint: Building interactive agentic applications using ADK and AG-UI protocol
Learn how to build interactive, real-world agentic applications by combining Google’s Agent Development Kit (ADK) with the AG-UI protocol. I focus on the practical challenges that arise when moving from simple chatbots to multi-step, tool-calling AI agents, such as managing state, handling asynchronous workflows, and creating user interfaces that can clearly reflect what agents are doing in real time.
Break - 10:15 AM – 10:25 AM PST
Session 2: Responsible Agent Tools & Open Source Frameworks
This session explores the foundational concepts of building responsible, production-ready agent tools using Google’s open-source ecosystem. Hannes introduces key ideas from his team’s recent tooling work, demonstrating how to integrate Gemma and Vertex AI into responsible agentic workflows. By analyzing real-world failure modes and production environments, participants will gain a deep understanding of the trade-offs that experienced engineers evaluate when building tools that are not only functional but ethically and technically dependable.
Wrap up & Network — 11:25 AM – 12:00 PM PST (Optional)
