Welcome to the age of the Agentic Stack, where we bridge the gap between deterministic engineering and the new frontier of autonomous systems. We’ll explore how to build AI agents that fulfill the security, reliability, and automation requirements for the enterprise, and how the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is being rebuilt from the ground up by agentic IDEs. **THIS MEETUP will be in ENGLISH and HYBRID\. \|** Zoom Link is visible for remote attendees after registration. **\*\*\* AGENDA \*\*\*** * 6:30\-7:00 PM \| Doors open\. Grab some snacks & drinks\. * 7:00 PM \| Welcome & Intro **Start of the hybrid meetup** * 7:05 PM \| **The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) in the age of AI Agents** by Harald Seipp (Principal Client Engineering EMEA Solution Architect & STSM at IBM) & Thomas Südbröcker (Senior Engineer and Solution Architect at IBM) * around 8:05 PM \| **Mastering Multi-Agent Systems with the Agentic Layer** \- Florian Mallmann \(Senior Software Engineer at QAware\) * afterwards: More snacks & drinks, and a lot of time for networking with all attendees and speakers. **\*\*\* ABSTRACTS \*\*\*** **The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) in the age of AI Agents - Harald Seipp (Principal Client Engineering EMEA Solution Architect & STSM at IBM) & Thomas Südbröcker (Senior Engineer and Solution Architect at IBM)** This session explores how agentic AI is reshaping every phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), transforming development workflows from requirements gathering to maintenance. Using IBM’s perspective on agentic IDEs, the presentation demonstrates how AI‑driven tools can autonomously understand context, plan and execute multi‑step tasks, generate code and tests, refactor across entire codebases, and assist in deployment and troubleshooting. Attendees will learn how these capabilities reshape developer roles, accelerate solution workshops and pilot builds, and enable teams to deliver more with fewer resources. Risks, best practices, and the evolving future of autonomous SDLC pipelines are also discussed, offering a pragmatic view of how to adopt agentic development responsibly and effectively. If time permits, we can also provide a brief look at agentic Ops, including a Kubernetes cluster administration live demonstration. **Mastering Multi-Agent Systems with the Agentic Layer - Florian Mallmann (Senior Software Engineer at QAware)** The software landscape is undergoing a paradigm shift. Agentic AI. While microservices operate deterministically, AI agents act probabilistically and often unpredictably, making them autonomous. This presents a significant challenge for platform engineers and DevOps teams. In this talk, we will demonstrate how our open source [Agentic Layer](https://github.com/agentic-layer) helps to develop agents that meet high enterprise standards for security and reliability. We will showcase a live demonstration of three critical pillars for robust AI development: * **Workload Orchestration:** Discover how we define modular agent logics and chain them together to create highly efficient, scalable workflows. * **Quality Plane (Testability):** Say goodbye to the "prompt lottery." We will demo how to implement automated test cases that make the output quality and logical correctness of your agents objectively measurable. * **Compliance Plane (Guardrails):** See "security through technology" in action. We'll show you how to write and deploy real-time guardrails that prevent personally identifiable information (PII) leaks and ensure strict adherence to regulatory requirements. Whether you are building your first agent or scaling an existing system, this live demo will give you practical insights into deploying safe, predictable, and high-performing AI applications. \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Please note that photos are taken during the meetup.

**🎟️ REGISTER [HERE](https://luma.com/mewsrnd-whenaileavesthelab) TO SECURE YOUR SPOT AT THE EVENT 🎟️** Frontier AI models are evolving quickly, but the real challenge is no longer just building larger systems, it is turning advances in LLM research into reliable, efficient, and valuable products in the real world. ​ We invite you to join a panel discussion featuring experts working across AI research and engineering, who will share their perspectives on what actually matters in the next wave of LLM development. The conversation will explore the trade-offs between scale, efficiency, reasoning, and product impact, as well as what it takes to move from experimental models to systems that can be deployed at scale. The discussion will be moderated by **[Rogers Leo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rogersjeffreyl/?utm_source=luma), Director of Engineering and Product (Agentic AI) at [Mews](https://www.mews.com/en?utm_source=luma).** ​This panel will go beyond the hype and focus on practical lessons from building with LLMs today. We will look at where current approaches break down, what “good enough” really means in production, and why efficiency and system design may matter as much as model capability. ​ **Panelists:** **[Karol Lasocki](https://www.linkedin.com/in/karol-lasocki-1a86b2151/?utm_source=luma)**, Senior Machine Learning Engineer at **[BottleCap AI](https://www.bottlecapai.com/?utm_source=luma)** **[Luděk Matyska](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ludek-matyska/?utm_source=luma)**, AI Lead at **[ROUVY](https://rouvy.com/?utm_source=luma)** **[Soheyla Mirshahi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/soheyla-mirshahi-phd/?utm_source=luma),** AI Governance & Product Leader at **[T-Mobile](https://www.t-mobile.com/)** ​**Agenda:** 18:00 Doors open 18:30 Panel discussion + Q&A 19:30 Networking **🎟️ REGISTER [HERE](https://luma.com/mewsrnd-whenaileavesthelab) TO SECURE YOUR SPOT AT THE EVENT 🎟️** \-\-\-\-\-\- Photographs and video recordings may be taken during this event for documentation and promotional purposes, including use on websites, social media, and other communication channels.

**Léto klepe na dveře a před námi je poslední pražský předprázdninový meetup. Než začnete se svým agentem řešit, kam na dovolenou a co si vzít s sebou, a vyměníte prompty za offline čtení na pláži, stavte se pro poslední dávku nápadů! 🤖☀️🔥** Pohodový večer, kde to nebude o tom, že nás AI nahradí, ale o tom, co s ní reálně zvládneme líp. Jako vždy odstartujeme Nowwwinkami a pak se ponoříme do programu, který stojí za odložení dovolenkových plánů o jeden večer. Přijďte si pro poslední nálož inspirace, než pošlete své agenty na virtuální pláž a všechno utichne v dovolenkovém a okurkovém režimu. ☀️🏝️🥒 **Hlavní line-up** 🤩 * 🟢 18:00 otevíráme dveře v **CDN77** * 1️⃣ 18:30 **Nowwwinky** od Tomáše Kouta * 2️⃣ 19:00 **Mezistavy: React nechce, abyste řešili async** od Adama Kováře * 3️⃣ 19:30 **Vibecoding 280+ dní poté** od Jana Honzy Černého a.k.a. chemiXe * 4️⃣ 20:00 **Co mi chybí v** **BEM** (lightning talk) od Jirky Cerhana * 🎓 80+ nadšených účastníků * 🍻 a v neposlední řadě kvalitní networking \-\-\- 1️⃣ Tomáš Kout se svými **Nowwwinkami** jako obvykle otevře večer svým přehledem toho nejzajímavějšího z poslední doby. \-\-\- 2️⃣ Následuje přednáška na téma **Mezistavy: React nechce, abyste řešili async** od [Adama Kováře](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-kov%C3%A1%C5%99-0905a0169/) z [CDN77](https://www.cdn77.com/) Většina interakcí v UI je asynchronní, spinner browser tabu nám už nestačí a frameworky stále hledají řešení. Odpověď React teamu je, že async řešit nemusíte, alespoň ne tak jako doposud. Ukažme si, jak toho chtějí docílit pomocí transitions a action patternu. Adam o sobě: *„Mám rád otevřený a rychlý web, přesto posledních 6 let vyvíjím v Reactu. Věřím, že RSS je technologie budoucnosti a ve volném čase luštím křížovky.“* \-\-\- 3️⃣ Přednáškový blok uzavře [Jan Honza Černý a.k.a. chemiX](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chemix/) příspěvkem **Vibecoding 280+ dní poté** ...a pak přišel vibe coding. Najednou stačilo pár vět do chatu a před očima začaly vznikat funkční prototypy rychlostí blesku. Jenže to nebyli jen prototypy. CEO, manažer, grafik dostali nástroj kterým začali plevelit codebase a vibecode apokaplypsa začala... Tato přednáška ukáže, co jsme se za více jak 280 dní naučili. Jak s apokalypsou bojovat. Jak předcházet nakažení. Jak se bránit proti nákaze. A jaké jsou příznaky nakažení nejen kódu, ale i u lidí. To celé trošku s nadsázkou a hlavně otvírákem k diskuzi u piva. Jan o sobě: *„Digitální alchymista – rád zkoumá substituce UX, UI, AI, frontendu i backendu. Všude i nikde. Offline mísí s online. Tam, kde klávesnice končí, začínají kostky a karty. Spoluorganizátor technických meetupů po celé České republice, klid hledá u rydel nebo v lese.“* \-\-\- 4️⃣ A na závěr v odlehčeném duchu naservírujeme lightning talk na téma **Co mi chybí v** **BEM** od [Jirky Cerhana](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jiri-cerhan/) ze [SiteOne](https://www.siteone.cz) BEM metodiku pro organizaci CSS většina z nás důvěrně zná. Ve své praxi jsem ale narazil na pár míst, kde to maličko skřípe. S nástupem CSS custom properties se nabízejí nová řešení, která posunou přehlednost a snadnou modifikaci komponent o úroveň výš. **Máte zájem se připojit do bloku ⚡️Lightning talk(s) taky?** Napište a zajistěte si své místo ještě na této akci. \-\-\- Neváhejte s registrací a zabookujte si místo – bude to stát za to! 🎉 👉 Pro další zajímavé novinky a dění sledujte kanály komunity na [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@FrontendistiCz), [X](https://x.com/Frontendisti), [Facebooku](https://www.facebook.com/frontendisti/), [Instagramu](https://www.instagram.com/frontendisti/), [LinkedInu](https://www.linkedin.com/company/frontendisti/posts/?feedView=all) nebo navštivte [náš web](https://www.frontendisti.cz).

At our second meeting, we discussed Eliezer Yudkowsky's book, "[If anyone builds it, everyone dies](https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/474267/if-anyone-builds-it-everyone-dies-by-soares-eliezer-yudkowsky-and-nate/9781847928924)". So this time, something optimistic is needed :) **Let's dive into different utopian versions of our world with AGI.** The texts below are just suggestions; pick one or read something different. The more colorful utopias, the better the discussion. * [Nick Bostrom: Letter from Utopia](https://nickbostrom.com/utopia) (or read the whole "Deep Utopia" book, if you feel like it). * [Dario Amodei: Machines of Loving Grace](https://darioamodei.com/essay/machines-of-loving-grace) * [Isaac Asimov: The Last Question](https://users.ece.cmu.edu/~gamvrosi/thelastq.html) * [Iain Banks: Culture series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_series) * TBD (suggestions welcome!) No academic background is required, just a willingness to read, think, and share your thoughts. But please, read the text in advance and be ready to share its main ideas :) The session will be discussion-based, lightly moderated, and limited to a small group to allow for real conversation. I look forward to what the third AI reading club session brings!

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
