Name: AI Developer BarCamp – AI Meetup #20 @Consid
Start: 2025-11-20T18:00:00+01:00
End: 2025-11-20T21:00:00+01:00
Location: Consid GmbH

**AI Meetup goes BarCamp:** Join a unique, no-hierarchy gathering of software engineers, AI/ML practitioners, and technologists for an evening of real-world knowledge exchange, collaborative learning and spontaneous ideas.

Unlike traditional conferences, **a BarCamp has no preset schedule or speakers**. Instead, the agenda is created by you - on the spot. Whether you're building with foundation models, deploying inference pipelines, scaling microservices, or experimenting with cutting-edge AI agents, this is the space to connect, discuss, and learn from peers who are in the trenches too.

Some example sessions may include:

***On-Device AI Coding Tools***
*Claude Code rules supreme. How can we achieve similar performance with fully local models?*

***Protocols and Standards***
*MCP, A2A, ADK - benefits and technical limitations of different agent protocols.*

***The future of retrieval***
*Context rules supreme. Is simplicity key or should we use retrieval scaffolds/toolkits? Is vector search actually worse than established search heuristics?*

***Agent Middleware and Trustworthiness***
*How can we integrate trustworthy AI principles into nondeterministic AI agents? Is human-in-the-loop middleware enough?*

The final agenda will be determined by the attendees.

🍕 Thanks to Consid for hosting this iteration of the AI Meetup and sponsoring our Pizza!
