Build Prod AI Agents | Give(a)Go
AI is no longer a side quest - it’s everywhere, woven into the software we use every day. AI agents shouldn’t just be side projects; they deserve to be built, tested, and deployed like any other production-grade system.
**NOTE: To confirm your registration you need to sign up here: [https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents](https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents)**
Join us to build, experiment, and launch agents that can scale, measure, and survive the real world, not just the demo stage.
This not a prompt-engineering session or a demo. It is a full-day, hands-on experience where you’ll learn how to take your agent from “it works” to “it runs in production.”
You’ll explore how to design reliable architectures, deploy at scale, instrument analytics, and use rule-outs and monitoring to keep agents safe, stable, and smart.
Whether you’re a developer, designer, or just an AI-curious builder: this is your sandbox to **experiment, break things, and fix them right**.
**NOTE: To confirm your registration you need to sign up here: [https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents](https://giveago.co/register/prod-agents)**
***
🚀 What you’ll explore, learn, and build
You’ll learn how to:
* **Design reliable agent architectures**
* **Deploy at scale** with blue-green rollouts, version control, and safe updates.
* **Add observability** \- from metrics and event logs to dashboards and tracing\.
* **Track performance and reliability** in real time, using analytics that go beyond vanity metrics.
* **Implement rule-outs, toggles, and monitoring flows** to keep agents safe and evolving.
**We're all about hands-on, Here's what to expect:**
* In small teams working hands-on from idea to working prototype
* You’ll leave with something concrete you’ve built and understand
Time to explore, experiment, break things, and fix them
* Space to go deep on reliability, deployment, and observability

What Causes Your Roller Coasters in Life?
Do you sometimes feel like you do well in life then something happens and you slide back, never quite getting ahead.
At this Meetup you'll find out how to identify what actually causes the lows, the highs and everything in between. More importantly you’ll get the secret of how to gain control over your life so the highs are higher and the lows go away.
Wouldn’t it be nice to stop the wild roller coaster ride for good? Or at least make it a fun roller coaster ride, with more ups and downs.
There is a hidden factor that will be going over and you’re going to be quite surprised what it is and how much it affects your life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is hosted at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.
AI Development Risk Case Studies and how Agentic AI is the future of Appsec
OWASP is ending use of Meetup, so I built an eventbrite for the event.
https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ai-development-risk-case-studies-and-how-agentic-ai-is-the-future-of-appsec-tickets-1981450622150?aff=oddtdtcreator
AI is transforming how software is designed, developed, and deployed, dramatically accelerating velocity while introducing new categories of risk. As organizations adopt AI-assisted coding, autonomous agents, and increasingly complex model interactions, traditional application security approaches struggle to keep pace. This talk examines emerging AI-driven risks through real case studies from the field, highlighting issues such as insecure code generation, data-leakage pathways, model manipulation, and evolving supply-chain threats. We will explore how engineering teams must adapt their people, processes, and governance models to secure AI-augmented development workflows effectively. The session will then introduce agentic AI as the next evolution in application security—autonomous systems capable of continuous analysis, multi-step reasoning, and real-time remediation. Attendees will learn how combining agentic AI with modern practices can reduce developer friction, improve coverage, and create a future-ready application security strategy designed for the demands of AI-native software development
Saturday Mornings @ East Market
Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating.
Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio.
Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."
IxDA Chat n Pancakes
Join members of the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. There _might_ be a little snow, but there _will_ be effectively infinite serve-yourself coffee, so it evens out if you ask me.
