Join us in the search for the true, the good and the beautiful. Each meet is in one of two formats: a shared reading and open discussion of philosophical texts, or a continuing series of lectures based on the reading of a fascinating book of philosophy. Both formats are in Hebrew, with some reading of English texts, assisted whenever needed. We meet weekly Friday on 80 Rokach Boulevard, Tel Aviv, at the gardens of the Council for a Beautiful Israel. Welcome anyone interested in understanding life more deeply, regardless of age or prior knowledge. The love of wisdom is enough. Please join our WhatsApp group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/JeAa2uRNTlF0rdrVTLzUC0?mode=wwt Note: there's always enough sitting room, but some of it is on the grass or a mat on the floor. If you want to guarantee yourself a chair, please bring one with you. Sapere Aude! (Kant's Motto: Dare to Think!)

The TLV PUG is back! Join us for an afternoon of talks, food, drinks, and good company at Microsoft Reactor Tel Aviv on Level 50 with those incredible skyline views. This time we've got three great talks lined up. Oh, and there will be swag. You're welcome. **Talks:** **From Zero to AI Agent: Building with Microsoft Foundry Agent Service** *[Engin Diri](https://www.linkedin.com/in/engin-diri/) \- Senior Solutions Architect\, Pulumi* AI Agents are everywhere right now, but how do you actually build and deploy one without losing your mind? In this talk, Engin will walk through how to use Microsoft Foundry Agent Service together with the Microsoft Agent Framework and Pulumi to spin up, configure, and manage AI agents, all as code. We'll go from an empty project to a working agent, covering the gotchas and the good parts along the way. **OpenClaw Bots Done Right: No Security Nightmares Included** [Dor Serero](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dorser/) \- Principal Architect\, Microsoft So you want to run an OpenClaw bot, or any agent for that matter. Cool. But have you thought about what happens when things go sideways security-wise? In this session, Dor will share real-world lessons on running OpenClaw bots without the kind of setup that keeps you up at 3 AM wondering if something just went horribly wrong. We'll cover common pitfalls, hardening tips, and practical patterns to keep your bot humming without opening the door to trouble. **OpenClaw Running My Life 🦞 (and I'm not sure If I can take them back)** *[Roey Zalta](https://linkedin.com/in/roey-zalta) \- Data & AI Solutions Engineer\, Microsoft* What happens when you stop treating OpenClaw as a demo and start letting it run real parts of your life? In this session, Roey will walk through his personal setup, showing how he balances security, privacy, and convenience while giving agents real autonomy. From always-on monitoring to reactive automations, you'll see what it actually takes to operationalize OpenClaw beyond toy examples. We'll cover the trade-offs, the unexpected behaviors, and the lessons learned when your agent becomes a system you rely on daily. Sometimes helpful, sometimes slightly too enthusiastic. **Schedule:** * 5:00 PM — Doors open, food, drinks & networking * 5:30 PM — From Zero to AI Agent: Building with Microsoft Foundry Agent Service (Engin Diri) * 5:55 PM — OpenClaw Bots Done Right: No Security Nightmares Included (Dor Serero) * 6:20 PM — OpenClaw Running My Life 🦞 (Roey Zalta) * 6:45 PM — Networking, food & drinks * 7:30 PM — See you at the next one! **Where:** Microsoft Reactor Tel Aviv Menakhem Begin Rd 144, Level 50 Tel Aviv-Yafo After the official wrap-up, we'll continue any interesting discussions at a nearby bar for those who want to keep the conversation going. Spots are limited, so grab yours early. See you there!
