This session is strictly for **AI Professionals (AIP)**: founders and practitioners in the AI space. Whether you're deep into Machine Language, deep learning, data science, blockchain, GenAI or training your own LLM, this is your opportunity to actually meet some of your peers out in the real world, to have some high-level technical and strategic conversations. **THE EXPERIENCE:** * **The Venue - Bangkok Garden:** A soaring, high-ceilinged Thai "oasis" near Dundas Station. * **The Meal:** A full Thai lunch buffet. * **The Cost:** You are responsible for your own buffet bill at the restaurant (approx. **$24.00 + tax + 18% gratuity**, totalling roughly **$32.00**). **HOW TO SECURE YOUR SEAT:** 1. **Join the Waitlist.** 2.
