What we’re about
PyData Cornwall is the Cornwall chapter of the global PyData community. This is a group for anyone interested in combining the Python programming language with data. We cover all topics across data engineering, data analytics and data science so come along and learn/network with like-minded folks across all levels of experience! We aim to have an in-person event every couple of months across the county.
PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R.
The PyData Code of Conduct governs this meetup. To discuss any issues or concerns relating to the code of conduct or the behaviour of anyone at a PyData meetup, please contact NumFOCUS Executive Director Leah Silen (+1 512-222-5449; leah@numfocus.org) or the group organizer.

🍕 Doors open at 6.45pm with drinks, talks start at 7:15pm, pizza arrives at some point and when talks finish we'll move to a nearby pub for drinks.🎙️ Main Talks (30 mins)
1️⃣ The Art of Storytelling with AI Agents — Ben Gamble.
Learn how to use AI to craft a compelling story in any genre; fantasy, sci-fi, classics, you name it! We’ll cover the structure of what makes a good story then go into how to build autonomous agents that will assist you in creating a new universe with places and characters that convincingly interact with each other. I’ll also share how my learnings from working on video games shaped my thinking and why I wanted to build this system.
2️⃣ Energy Insights from the Edge: Anomaly Detection and Forecasting on Raspberry Pi — Suyash Joshi.
We'll learn how to monitor and analyze energy data from sensors on a Raspberry Pi, simulating solar or wind power systems. Data is streamed into InfluxDB 3 Core (an open source time series database), where we use Python plugins to run Prophet ML for forecasting and River ML for real-time anomaly detection, directly inside the database. You'll see how you can collect and query data from edge devices to deliver smart insights for energy monitoring on the edge.
⚡ Lightning Talks (5 mins)
1️⃣ Python vs Haskell vs Clojure — Ben Whorwood, Rob Harrison, Kevin Bath.
