Artificial Intelligence Applications

AI is no longer a side quest - it’s everywhere, woven into the software we use every day. AI agents shouldn’t just be side projects; they deserve to be built, tested, and deployed like any other production-grade system. **NOTE: To confirm your registration you need to sign up here: [https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents](https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents)** Join us to build, experiment, and launch agents that can scale, measure, and survive the real world, not just the demo stage. This not a prompt-engineering session or a demo.

Hello gluttons! We've made a fresh date with our jaws at DA MIMMO, a fantastic ristorante pizzeria I've known for quite some time. I've gone there to eat their masterful pizza, delicious pasta with fish, and best in town "cannoli". I've never been disappointed with anything I've ever ordered from DA MIMMO. We can cut our budget a little because of the pizza, but if you prefer, you can also have a whole meal from antipasto to dessert. Total freedom! You can check the pictures below and the menu here: [https://www.damimmo.ie/menu](https://www.damimmo.ie/menus) You should be aware, however, that most of the time there are special daily plates available that may be particularly relevant to your palate. Also, this time I have to bring out a minor issue. Because the venue is small, you must RSVP only if you are reasonably certain that you will be able to attend. To join us, please confirm your spot by paying the **€2 participation fee** here: [revolut.me/gianz64es](https://revolut.me/gianz64es) or doing the rsvp here on meetup at 3 euro. If you pay through Revolut you won't do the rsvp here on meetup (so you won't appear in the attendees here), but don't worry you are in! There are only 6 seats available for now. *Bookings are confirmed ONLY once payment is made via the link above or here on the meetup event page.* Both options works with any credit card, but unfortunately, **cash payments can’t be accepted**. See you soon for another joyful dinner together! Gianni I hope to meet you for a delicious and entertaining lunch at DA MIMMO! Gianni

The staff are always very kind to us, so we ask everyone to respect this. There is a great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks including mocktails, teas, coffees and mushroom beer. They do also have a vegan pizza on the menu - it's called "The Bishop" and it's very tasty. Check out the menu [here](https://boarddublin.com/menu/). We'll post the location of our table on the night, but if you're having trouble finding us, the table is booked under "Fearghal". Or you can just leave a message on here. Please be on time and remember to change your RSVP if you can't make it. You don't have to be vegan/plant-based to come along. All group members are welcome. If you have friends that want to come along as a +1, you will be responsible for them. All members to be treated with kindness and respect regardless of background. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

### Tools in your AI's Toolbox : An introduction to MCP Servers The generative AI revolution has unlocked unprecedented capabilities, but the next frontier is agency: empowering models to interact with, query, and act upon the world. The current challenge is the “N x M integration problem,” where every AI model requires a custom, brittle integration for each external tool or data source. This approach simply doesn’t scale. How can we give an AI access to our sales leads, code repositories, or IoT devices in a standardized, secure, and reusable way? This session introduces Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open-source framework designed to solve this challenge and become the universal connector—the USB-C port—for AI. MCP standardizes how AI models discover and use external tools, moving beyond simple function-calling to a robust, client-server architecture. We will dive into how this open protocol is creating a new ecosystem for building powerful, context-aware AI agents. Join this session for a developer-focused introduction where you will learn how to: Understand the core concepts of the open-source Model Context Protocol and its architecture. Utilize pre-built, open-source MCP servers to instantly connect AI to tools like Git, Slack, and databases. Build a custom MCP server to securely expose your own proprietary data and APIs as tools for any compliant AI. Move beyond bespoke integrations and contribute to a standardized, collaborative, and open ecosystem. Stop building one-off connectors and start building intelligent agents. This session will give you the practical knowledge to leverage MCP and create the next generation of AI that doesn’t just talk, but does.

**\*\*\*\* More details and sign up at: https://aifalliance.org/summit-2026/ \*\*\*\*** **What is AI Freedom Alliance?** AI Freedom Alliance promotes the responsible growth of AI guided by practical, commonsense ethics. Our nonprofit is built by professionals from a wide range of industries and is made up entirely of small- and mediumbusiness representatives—never large tech companies. We provide a counterbalance to big corporate influence, focusing instead on how AI can benefit businesses and the world at large. **What’s Happening?** ***The inaugural AI Freedom Alliance Summit.*** This full-day event will explore how we can ensure AI is adopted responsibly through shared ethical standards that empower humanity. The summit will feature interactive and educational sessions led by thought leaders, technologists, policymakers, and advocates who are passionate about making AI fair, transparent, and beneficial for everyone. **Why Attend?** Learn about the legal and technical challenges with implementing AI solutions within your organization. Build better solutions while protecting your organization from legal and compliance risks. And learn how to think strategically about AI as a differentiation tool for your business.

NFT's are here to stay folks! This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more. **PLUS** This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data** Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics. The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth. The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical. (note: we are back at Rev1 this month!) **About Our Speaker** [Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics. His work focuses on helping organizations like the Ohio Supreme Court design, analyze, and communicate compensation systems that are data-informed, defensible, and aligned with organizational goals. Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos. More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)
