# **​Demos / Talks**

[Vicente Reig](https://www.linkedin.com/in/vicentereig/) - **DSPy.rb:** a Ruby-first port of Stanford’s DSPy — a declarative framework that turns manually written prompts into **predictable, reusable reasoning systems**. You’ll see how **Signatures**, **Evals**, and **Prompt Optimizers** work together to improve your prompts automatically and keep your system stable as models evolve.
Think of DSPy.rb as the **MVC moment for AI**: a framework that brings structure and reliability to a layer of your app that changes faster than anything else.

[Daniel Doubrovkine](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dblock/) - **Hypermedia APIs are Made for AI:** While adoption of Hypermedia APIs is very low compared to, for example GraphQL, this approach to API design deserves a new look in the age of AI.
In this talk we'll look at building a Hypermedia API using grape and grape-roar, and expose it via an MCP using the new [hyperclient-mcp](https://github.com/dblock/hyperclient-mcp) gem.

[Brian Fountain](https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-fountain/) - **G3NPRO**: A new software platform empowering enterprise animation studios with groundbreaking generative AI tools that accelerate production timelines and unlock unprecedented creative possibilities. G3NPRO is built on Ruby/Rails and currently in the pilot phase.

If you are interested in speaking at future events, please fill out the form below. The demos are usually about 10 minutes and feature a cool AI tool or feature built in Ruby/Rails.
