In collaboration with Gittogether Dublin 🤝 The AI DevTools revolution is here, and it's time to separate the signal from the noise! Join Dublin MUG (MongoDB User Group) and GitTogether Dublin for a hands-on technical deep dive - evening exploring the AI-powered tools that are reshaping how we build software. Whether you're already using AI coding assistants daily, curious about integrating AI into your development workflow, or want to connect with other developers navigating this space, this meetup is for you! We aren't just looking at autocomplete; we would be exploring the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). We'll map out the best tools from the landscape and show you how to build a developer environment where your AI agent actually understands your data. **🛠️ What we're building:** SDLC Mapping: We'll start by categorizing the "chaos"—mapping AI tools to the SDLC (Coding, Testing, Docs, and Ops). The Agent Workshop: A hands-on setup of a GitHub Copilot Agent using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). We'll get everyone's environment "Agent-ready." Workshop: GitHub: https://github.com/skills/integrate-mcp-with-copilot The Data Connection: We'll hook that agent into the MongoDB MCP Server. You'll see how Copilot can explore schemas, write aggregation pipelines, and query Atlas directly from your natural language prompts. Workshop: https://github.com/SANTANNA001/MongoDB-MCP-Config/blob/main/MongoDB_MCP_Copilot_Steps.md Performance & Optimization: A showcase of the "essential" stack—MongoDB Compass AI Chat, the VS Code MCP bridge, and using AI to solve real-world performance bottlenecks. **📅 Agenda (6:00 PM - 8:30 PM)** **6:00 \- 6:30 PM \| Intro\, Networking & Pizza 🍕** Grab some food, meet fellow developers, and share your experiences with AI DevTools **6:30 \- 7:15 PM \| Workshop 1: Integrate MCP with GitHub Copilot** Speaker: [Oleksandr Slynko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/slynko/), Data Engineer @Github Hands-on exercise expanding Copilot's capabilities using the Model Context Protocol. You'll connect a GitHub MCP server to Copilot and use Agent Mode to research, implement features, and manage issues. **7:15 \- 8:00 PM \| Workshop 2: MongoDB MCP \+ Copilot** Speakers: [Ade S.B](https://www.linkedin.com/in/st999/overlay/about-this-profile/),[ Venkat Cherukuri](https://www.linkedin.com/in/venkat-sai-cherukuri-71053513a), Engineering @MongoDB Connect your Copilot to MongoDB Atlas! Learn to configure the MongoDB MCP server so Copilot can explore schemas, query collections, and write aggregation pipelines from natural language. **8:00 \- 8:30 PM \| Open Discussion & More Networking** Stick around for Q&A, more networking, and honest conversations about AI in our daily workflows **Prerequisites** To participate in the hands-on workshops, please complete the following BEFORE the event: 1\.

An ashram retreat day is a day to nourish the body, calm the mind and get in touch with your true self. The day comprises of spiritual practices from the Yogic path, a combination of gentle Hatha Yoga and various types of meditation and reflection, under guidance. Everyone is welcome and no experience necessary. The yogic path offers us practical ways of growing in spiritual awareness in a chaotic world, to open oneself to union with the Divine, with people and with the natural world. A day retreat at Anam Ashram aims to help participants in the practice of the asanas (Hatha Yoga), contemplation in action (karma yoga), bhakti yoga (union through devotion) and jnana yoga (union through knowledge e.g. wisdom teachings from the mystics or scriptures). It is a deeply nourishing experience. Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary. For further details please contact Jane at mellettj@gmail.com Cost? Suggested donation of 50 euros. Light vegetarian lunch included. Facilitators: Jane Mellett is a qualified yoga and meditation teacher. She has worked in pastoral ministry for many years and is also a qualified Spiritual Director. Since 2016 Jane has lived at Anam Ashram in Tallaght, Dublin and is interested in the integration of Eastern spiritual practices within Christianity and sharing these practices with others. Members of the Anam Ashram Community will also join in running this retreat.

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. This summit is highly recommended for C-Suite leaders to learn as well as interact with each other and our sponsors.
