👋 Hello AWS User Group Community! Join us on Wednesday, 20th May 2026, for our May meetup at the AWS Singapore Office, IOI Central Boulevard! We’re bringing the community together again for an evening of sharing, learning, and connecting — stay tuned as we finalise the session lineup 👀 📅 Date: Wednesday, 20th May 2026 🕡 Time: 6:30 PM 📍 Location: AWS Singapore; 2 Central Blvd, IOI Central Boulevard East Towers, Level 5 🎤 **Meetup Track** ✅ **Lessons Learned Deploying an LLM-Powered Knowledge Assistant** 📌 Speaker: Hairizuan Noorazman, DevOps Engineer Engineering teams often lose time navigating fragmented Jira and Confluence documentation. To address this, an LLM-powered chatbot was built on AWS — using ECR, EKS, and Amazon Bedrock. The initial RAG approach quickly surfaced critical issues such as data leakage in vector stores, prompt injection, and broken access controls. This session breaks down these failure modes and explores a pivot to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration with Atlassian, allowing queries over live data instead of duplicating it. Attendees will gain practical insights into RAG vs MCP trade-offs and a reference AWS architecture for building safer LLM systems. ✅ **Kiro IDE Best Practices in SDLC and Scrum Sprint DevSecOps** 📌 Speaker: Tim Wu, Senior GTM Specialist SA AI/ML An AI-powered development environment that embeds enterprise standards directly into your workflow. See how Kiro transforms traditional SDLC approaches through its Five-Element Architecture, making compliance, security, and best practices automatic rather than afterthoughts. Kiro provides ready-to-use configurations that enforce guardrails while accelerating development. This session focuses on live demonstrations to show you exactly how steering files, hooks, skills, subagents, and MCP integrations work together in real enterprise scenarios. ✅ **Running AI agents that control computers: AWS architecture for sandboxed autonomous execution** 📌 Speaker: Sahil Sharma, Applied AI Enthusiast Agents that browse, click, and type need more than an API call- they need isolated sandboxes, warm container pools, and an architecture that scales. This deep dive covers how 14 AWS services come together to run autonomous computer-use agents safely and fast in production. 📢 **IMPORTANT! Registration Information** To ensure a smooth check-in process, please take note of the following: ✅ ✅ Confirmed attendees will receive a confirmation email before the event titled *"**AWS User Group Singapore: Registration Confirmed for AWS User Group Meetup – May 2026**."* You must present this email at the Level 2 Concierge to gain access to Level 5 for attendance verification. 🚶 Walk-ins (those without a confirmation email) will only be considered if the venue has not reached full capacity. Priority will be given to registered attendees with confirmation emails. 🔒 Strictly enforced: No confirmation email = walk-in. Entry not guaranteed. 💡 **Pro Tip:** Arrive early to avoid queues and secure your seat for the sharing sessions! Additional Highlights: 🍕 Pizza Time: Begin your evening with some delicious pizza at 6:30 PM, courtesy of our generous sponsor, AWS. Vegetarian and halal options will be available. 🍻 Post-Meetup Networking: Stick around for casual networking over drinks. Let’s forge new connections and continue the conversations! 🎁 AWS Swag & Promo Codes: Don’t miss the chance to win exclusive AWS swag and promo codes. Prizes will be drawn for attendees present at the event—so stay till the end! **Connect with us here!** Meetup: [AWS User Group Singapore](https://www.meetup.com/aws-sg/) LinkedIn: [AWS User Group Singapore](https://www.linkedin.com/company/aws-user-group-singapore/) Discord: [https://discord.com/invite/nkZagBG](https://discord.com/invite/nkZagBG) Please reach out to us at **[aws.usergroup.singapore@gmail.com](mailto:aws.usergroup.singapore@gmail.com)** for collaboration or other enquiries!

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
