What we’re about
Cutting through the noise and sharing real stories from people building with AI across industry, research and personal projects.
AI Signals (formerly AIDLE) began life in 2016 as the London Machine Learning Practice Meetup. After a pause during the pandemic, it was revived in 2022 and later relaunched as an independent community focused on applied AI.
Since then, we've hosted over 20 events, seen 75 talks and grown to more than 3,500 members. In that time we’ve discussed topics like fairness in AI, the developer experience, sustainable AI, and more. In 2025, we became AI Signals - a name that reflects our mission: cutting through the noise and sharing real stories from people building with AI across industry, research and personal projects.
We're volunteer-run, community-powered, and always curious.

You don’t need to be an expert speaker - just someone with something interesting to say.
Can we sponsor an event?
If you’re a company and interested in getting involved in partnering in some way then we’d love to hear from you!

06:30pm - Doors open, food and drink served
07:00pm - Welcome
07:05pm - Henry Musto, BBC " Using AI to Predict Dementia - An Overview of Research and Future Directions"
Henry Musto is a fifth year PhD candidate at Goldsmiths, University of London. He is also a professional data scientist, with over ten years experience, currently contracting with the BBC. For the past five years, Henry has been using AI modelling techniques in order to predict the onset of Alzheimer’s Disease, and track the prognosis of this debilitating condition. In this presentation, Henry will give an overview of the current state of the field of dementia prediction using AI, and present a summary of his own work and plans for future research.07:45pm - Break
08:00pm - Damien Bemben, Ada Mode "Analysing UK's energy development fears - a graveyard of NIMBY destroyed projects."
Damien will talk about how "Not In My Back Yard" (NIMBYISM) is strangling UK infrastructure development, particularly renewable energy projects, and demonstrate his novel solution: the "Nimby Radar" - an AI-powered system that quantifies the true cost of local opposition to green infrastructure.
He'll dive into publicly available data sources to map organized resistance efforts, then showcase how Google's latest AI capabilities - including Model Context Protocol (MCP), agent-to-agent communication, advanced vectorization, and large-scale data analysis APIs - can automatically identify and analyze NIMBY campaigns at scale.08:40 - TBC
