**🚀 Descubre cómo construir agentes de IA reales con Python, Strands Agents y Ollama** Esta sesión está pensada para quienes ya programan en **Python** y quieren dar el siguiente paso: construir *agentes que no solo respondan texto,* sino que también actúen con herramientas.

Un recorrido hands-on desde la instalación y configuración hasta un agente funcional que invoque tools y resuelva un caso real. El objetivo es que salgas con un mapa claro de piezas, buenas prácticas y un prototipo que puedas adaptar a tu proyecto, equipo o comunidad. Aprende a: ✨ Definir agentes con herramientas reales ⚡ Ejecutar modelos en local sin depender de un proveedor 🛡️ Construir prototipos listos para producción 🗓️ Fecha: 04 de junio 2025 🕒 Hora: 15:00 (hora local) 📍 Formato: Presencial — Duoc UC Antonio Varas 🎤 Speaker: Hazel Saenz — LATAM Developer Advocate at AWS 👉 ¡No te pierdas esta oportunidad de llevar tus proyectos de IA al siguiente nivel!

*Note: this is a demonstration event only, you **will not** shoot you own images. However, if you bring your camera we can test it for compatibility with the studio lights.* Bondage elements can add an extra layer of emotion and artistry to your images. Sample images on the internet are however dominated by BDSM style shots that are often sexualized and emphasize the model being in distress. In this demonstration Rachel and I show ways to use bondage elements in an artistic way. We explore the types of accessories that work best in artistic images and the best way to photograph them. Our model is Rachel Adams, an internationally known fetish model with many years of experience in this genre.

I have been studying the question of "self" online with Prof. Ellie Anderson and so I thought a prompt on the "self" might be interesting. Full confession: I had Claude create this prompt and I like it, so here goes: Imagine a thought experiment that merges two classic puzzles: > You undergo a procedure, performed neuron by neuron, in which every biological component of your brain is replaced with a functionally identical synthetic substitute. At each step, your behavior, memories, and personality remain unchanged. When the last neuron is swapped, is the consciousness experiencing the world still you? And — more pressingly — was there ever a continuous "you" to begin with? ### Questions to Wrestle With * If consciousness is purely physical, does the *gradual* nature of the replacement matter, or is it equivalent to being destroyed and rebuilt? * Could there be a "self" without continuity of experience — even moment to moment, while you sleep? On a more practical level, consider the simpler case first: **hemispherectomy** patients — people who have had an entire cerebral hemisphere surgically removed — often retain a strong sense of personal identity and continuity. This suggests "you" are not rigidly tied to specific physical material. But does that vindicate the synthetic neuron case, or merely show that identity is more *flexible* than we thought — not that it can survive *complete* substrate replacement? I used Claude so I could get this out today and let everyone have some time to consider it. Hope to see you at the Oracle. Sorry about the location change two weeks ago. That's what I get for trusting local weather predictions!
