This month we have 3 talks Talk 1: Day to Day AI Talk 2: Scalable AI Talk 3: Production Ready AI Talk 1: Day to Day AI - AI, Agile and Productivity AI is changing not only how we work but how we plan and organise our projects. Join us for a quick overview of how we can leverage AI to take some of the heavy lifting out of effective planning, how AI can transform opaque requirements into actionable work and general tips and tricks for everyday productivity. About Conor Foley Senior Agile Coach and Delivery Lead Conor is an Agile Coach and Senior Delivery Lead with 18+ years delivering complex, multi-region transformations across Asia and Europe. He combines deep technical expertise with strong business acumen to advise C-suite leaders on strategy, execution, and digital transformation. Talk 2: Scalable AI - From 50 to 50K: Scaling an AI Application Under Pressure—Lessons from a High-Stakes Launch Description: Scaling an AI-powered application from 50 MVP users to 50,000 for a high-stakes go-live is a daunting challenge—especially when you only have one shot to get it right. In this talk, we’ll share our firsthand experience navigating the technical, operational, and security hurdles of scaling under pressure Topics: Scaling the Application: handling a 1,000x increase in users—from architecture and performance to real-time monitoring and optimization. DevOps: How we automated, tested, and deployed at scale while minimizing risk and ensuring reliability. Security: Security for AI application developed with AI tools. Lessons from the Front Lines: Key takeaways for teams facing high-stakes launches, including how to prepare for the unexpected and deliver under pressure.

Description: Every client is asking for AI now, but what do you actually do when that first request lands? This talk walks through a real project where a client asked for "automated data entry" and what we actually built: an AI pipeline that turns product images into structured listings using vision models. I'll cover how to scope AI work, what went right, what didn't (the 90% to 100% accuracy trap), and why designing for human in the loop beats promising full automation. Practical advice for web devs taking on their first AI project. About Samuel Ng Co-Founder of POPBO Net, a Hong Kong IT consultancy. 15 years building web and ecommerce products, now focused on running hands on AI enablement workshops and building AI agents that automate real business workflows.

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on **AI Agentic Coding** and how autonomous AI systems are transforming the way software is built. Experts in AI, software engineering, and developer tools will share insights on how agentic AI—systems that can plan, reason, and execute coding tasks—is reshaping modern development workflows. The discussion will cover topics such as AI-assisted development, productivity gains, challenges around reliability and governance, and what the future of software engineering may look like with AI agents as collaborators. Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding

Curious about “vibe coding” but not sure what it actually means? This beginner-friendly talk is about how people are using AI to build websites, apps, automations, and small software projects by describing what they want in plain English. We’ll cover what vibe coding is, what AI is good at, where it falls short, and how to actually use it without getting lost. The goal is not to hype AI as magic — it’s to show how to use it as a practical tool. This session is designed for beginners, curious builders, non-programmers, and developers who want a clearer picture of how to build with AI today. Topics include: * What “vibe coding” means * What AI can help you build * Where AI is useful and where it is unreliable * A simple workflow for building with AI * Prompting tips for better results * Common beginner mistakes to avoid If you’ve ever thought, “I have an idea, but I don’t know how to build it,” this talk is for you. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
