The hot topic this month is OpenClaw - and making sure that you too can "feel the AI". Talks: **"Lessons from OpenClaw" - Sam Witteveen** In this talk, Sam will break down how OpenClaw works, its key components and the lessons that you can take from it for building your own personal agents with personality, tools, skills and the stack used to create a successful system. **"Coherent Multi-agent Trajectory Forecasting in Team Sports with CausalTraj" - Teoh Wei Zhen** Can we predict how a basketball play unfolds in the next few seconds? In this lightning talk, Wei Zhen will present \*CausalTraj\*, his AAAI 2026 workshop paper on generative modelling for sports analytics - jointly modelling all interacting entities in the game to achieve SoTA performance and laying the foundation for controllable gameplay simulation. **"MobileClaw - Agents in your Pocket" - Martin Andrews** Martin has been playing around with something that "is like a personal agent system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like OpenClaw) for web+mobile." Expect (at minimum) some vibe coding war stories - and (at maximum) a live demo! **FOOD UPDATE :** Google has told us that **there WILL BE** pizza at the event \-\-\- Talks will start at 7:10pm (entry at 6:45pm) and end at around 9:00pm, at which point attendees can come up to the front for a bit of a chat with each other, and the speakers. Due to some recent security incidents at the venue please take note of the new DevSpace security procedures [https://bit.ly/devspace-security](https://bit.ly/devspace-security) Attendees will not be admitted later than 15min after the talks have started. As always, we're actively looking for more speakers - both '30 minutes long-form', and lightning talks. For the lightning talks, we welcome folks to come and talk about something cool they've done with keras, PyTorch, JAX and/or Deep Learning for 5-10mins (so, if you have slides, then #max=10). We believe that the key ingredient for the success of a Lightning Talk is simply the cool/interesting factor. It doesn't matter whether you're an expert or an enthusiastic beginner: Given the responses we have had to previous talks, we're sure there are lots of people who would love to hear what you've been playing with. If you're interested in talking, please just introduce yourself to Martin at one of the events.

Join us for an evening of deep technical insights into the future of AI-assisted software development. This meetup brings together industry leaders to explore cutting-edge approaches to agentic engineering, from specification-driven development to preserving human flow states in AI-powered workflows. **Venue:** Suntec Tower 3, 8 Temasek Boulevard, #30-01/02, Singapore 038988 **Date:** 25 Feb **Schedule:** * 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Registration & Networking * 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM: Speaker Sessions & Q&A ## Featured Speakers **Sergey Saburov, Director of Software Engineering, Acronis** **Topic:** *Spec-Driven Development: Modern Strategies for Human-AI Collaboration* Dive into an in-depth comparison of specification-first methodologies in the era of AI-assisted engineering. This session evaluates different approaches to Spec-Driven Development (SDD), contrasting rigid, blueprint-heavy frameworks with lightweight, iterative change-tracking systems. Sergey examines practical workflows—from initial design to automated implementation—discussing how treating specifications as the "Source of Truth" helps teams eliminate technical debt, minimize AI hallucinations, and maintain architectural integrity in complex codebases. **Sanjeev Solanki, NLP Lead Engineer (AI),** **Constructor Technology** **Topic:** *AI Research Assistant: From Papers to Production with Agentic AI* This talk explores how AI can go beyond chatbots to become a structured research collaborator. We’ll look at an AI Research Assistant that reads papers, analyzes code, understands datasets, and generates executable plans using multi-agent orchestration. Learn how agentic workflows and context engineering help reduce hallucinations and bridge the gap between research ideas and production-ready solutions. **Ake, Developer Experience Director, Chainstack** **Topic:** *Building a Flow State Companion for Agentic Coding* We as humans have the capability of entering flow states—the deeply productive, creative, and rewarding sessions that almost always produce the best results. Flow requires consciousness. AI doesn't have one, and it can easily snap yours. Multi-instance agents, parallel workflows, and orchestrated swarms are TikTok for builders. In this talk, Ake shares his experience building a solution to protect flow, navigating the intricacies of cognition and metacognition along the way. ## What to Expect * Cutting-edge insights into AI-assisted development workflows * Practical strategies for human-AI collaboration * Networking opportunities with engineering leaders and practitioners * Q&A sessions with industry experts **Registration opens at 6:00 PM. We look forward to seeing you there!**

In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA
