Autonomous Driving

**What if your AI agent could decide for itself when to call a tool, or ask another agent?** Welcome to **Sprint #3 of the Agentic AI Engineering Lab**, where we level up from building protocols to building *decision-making agents*. In this hands-on lab, you’ll create an autonomous agent that: * speaks the **A2A protocol** to collaborate with other agents * registers to an agent hub for discovery * connects to an **MCP server** when tools are needed * intelligently chooses ***when to delegate vs when to execute*** No lectures. Just systems thinking + real building. *** ### What We’ll Do * **10:00** \- Quick round of introductions * **10:15** \- Recap: AI Agents\, MCP Protocol and A2A Protocol * **10:30** \- Build your decision\-making agent * **12:00** \- Live demos \+ technical teardown * **12:30** \- Wrap\-up \+ takeaways *** ### What to Expect * Hands-on building, not passive listening * Real agent-to-agent experiments * Collaboration with fellow builders * Fast ideas, quick tests, lots of learning * Unexpected behavior (the fun part) *** ### What Not to Expect * Long lectures * Step-by-step tutorials * Sales pitches * Perfect code This is a **lab**; we learn by building, breaking, and iterating. *** ### ‍ Who Should Join Curious developers, tinkerers, and engineers, with basic knowledge of AI Agents. **Bring:** * Laptop with dev setup * Access to an LLM (Claude / OpenAI / Ollama) * Comfort building small things in any language *** ###

**Fellow Humans, we're starting a book club!** We focus on understanding what's actually happening on the crowded stage of AI: the companies driving the AI race, the decisions being made on our behalf, and what it all means for the rest of us. Every few weeks, we'll choose and read one book together and talk about it. Bring your **thoughts**, your **questions**, your **highlighted passages**, and your **honest reactions**. **Our first pick: *Empire of AI* by Karen Hao**, who has worked for The Wall Street Journal and contributes to The Atlantic. *She argues that the pursuit of an artificial superintelligence has become its own figurative paper clip factory, devouring too much energy, minerals and human labour. She portrays OpenAI and other companies that make up the fast‑growing A.I. sector as a “modern-day colonial world order.”* (excerpt from the NYT review) **What to expect:** A relaxed, semi-structured conversation (around 2 hours). We'll dig into the themes together, share what stood out, and connect the ideas to what we're actually experiencing. **No expertise required, just read the book and show up curious.** **Why a book club?** Because some things can't be captured in a headline or a 60-second video. The questions AI raises for our work, our relationships, and our futures deserve more than a scroll. They deserve a real conversation with real people, and a book gives us common ground to start from. **After this first Meetup, you help define what's next!** Suggest books that have changed how you think about AI, technology, or what it means to be Human. This is your club. **No tech background needed. Just curiosity and willingness to think out loud with fellow critical thinkers.** **Join our [LinkedIn Group](https://www.linkedin.com/groups/10088542/) and [Substack](https://humanfuturehub.substack.com/)** for articles, perspectives, and resources between events. See you there, Your HFH Team! **Humans, together. Nobody is left behind.** ❤️

A small NEXUS gathering built around movement rather than discussion alone. This is for high-bandwidth Mavericks who spend most of their time in conceptual thought and need some physical counterweight. Why bouldering? Because it’s deliberate: short problems, full focus, and immediate feedback. You’re on the wall, solving something tangible. The mental noise drops instantly! Conversations happen naturally in between climbs. No pressure, you move at your own pace. Some exchanges stay light. Others go deep. Both are fine. This is not about athletic achievement. It’s about presence, recalibration, and being around people who don’t require you to shrink or translate yourself. Come as you are. Try some bouldering problems. Rest when needed, and engage where it makes sense. **Bring comfortable clothes and climbing shoes if you have them (rentals are available at the gym).** *Registration equals commitment. If you sign up, you show up. Read the group description first and decide consciously. For context about NEXUS, visit our* ***[website](https://thenexusformula.com)*** *and* ***[newsletter](https://news.thenexusformula.com)****.*

Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin. We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.

Sunday afternoon is perfect to play some lazy liar games, if you have nothing better to do. We are a group of friendly people who will teach you how to play these easy social deduction games . Amazing way to meet new people and have some good company during weekend. **IMPORTANT** It's relaxed playing, nothing for ambitious gamers or people who take it too serious. Waiting list policy: When spots open up, we try to bring in a good mix — some regulars we can count on and some new faces to keep things fresh. That means not everyone will get picked every time, but don’t take it the wrong way — it’s just about balance. There’ll always be more chances to join!

RSVP on Luma: https://luma.com/h4xm63a4 Silent Reading / Creating Club is a gathering for people who enjoy focusing together in public. Bring a book, a notebook, a sketchpad, knitting needles — whatever you’d like to spend a quiet hour with. All projects and all participants are welcome. ​This year is about creating more — quietly, consistently, imperfectly — and shaping environments that support that. If you’re building something of your own, you’re especially welcome here. ​We’re building a community of readers and creators who value depth, presence, and shared silence. The magic isn’t just in the quiet hour — it’s in the people who return and make it feel like a familiar room. ​(Please RSVP “yes” only if you can make it, so we can save a seat for you and others on the waitlist.) ​This quiet ritual unfolds at **W66 Café**. ​There’s no entrance fee, but please order at least one item from the café and don’t bring outside drinks 🙂 ​No assignments. No pressure. No productivity race. Just a shared hour of intentional silence, followed by relaxed conversation. 🕰 Our Agenda ​**10:30 – 11:00** Arrivals, ordering drinks/food, light social time ​**11:00 – 12:00** The Great Quiet Hour (Read. Write. Sketch. Code. Think. Sit.) ​**12:00 – 12:30** Optional socializing — share what you were reading or creating, or simply continue in quiet focus. ## **​🏡 House Guidelines** ​To keep this space calm and welcoming for everyone: ​• Silence during the focus hour (no calls or conversations) • Phones on silent mode • If using a laptop, please avoid meetings or audio — headphones welcome • Arrive before 11:00 if possible to minimize disruptions

Drake Lundstrom is presenting: Code Anywhere by Talking to your Phone Abstract: Have you heard the trend of people deploying code anywhere from checkout lines to doctors' offices? In this talk, you will learn how to talk to your phone and have an app on Azure to show your friend 5 minutes later. The basic DevOps tools you already know, plus a little bit of AI magic, are all you need! If you want to follow along, the demo will be in Azure with GitHub Actions and GitHub Copilot, and you can have it set up on your phone by the end of the session. Just come in with an Azure account and a GitHub repo. Join us for pizza, drinks, and networking @ Improving's office. Doors open at 5:45.

We will show a variety of methods for building agents that run in Microsoft Foundry. This covers the different types of agents: Prompt, Multi, and Hosted, as well as the development lifecycle using evals and traces.

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.
