**Registration Instructions:** Meetup RSVPs are closed - to attend, you must register on the [Luma event page.](https://luma.com/2talb3jk) **Agenda** 6:00-6:30 PM Arrivals and Networking 6:30-7:00 PM Tech Talk #1 7:00-7:30 PM Tech Talk #2 7:30-8:30 PM Networking & Wrap-up 8:30 PM Tear-down and Departures ​**Talk #1:** *I Built a $15/Month AI Advisory Board (And It Called Me Out)* \- Jacintha Kurniawan\, Co\-founder and AI Product Manager at Bridge AI Knowledge ​Using commodity tools, I built a multi-agent AI system for <$20/month and created a "CEO-in-the-loop" architecture: agents collect data, detect patterns, then four RAG-based advisors to argue with each other in Discord threads. I read their debates, make decisions, and an executor agent builds my calendar. My key insight was that if advisory agents agree, the system is useless; disagreement is the feature. ​ This talk breaks down the full technical architecture, the cost model that will scales from $15/month to production, why I designed agents to argue instead of agree, and the counter-intuitive discoveries (why the first 15 minutes matter more than the next 4 hours). ​ **Talk #2:** *Building Agents That Know: Knowledge-First Design for AI Systems* \- Andrew Berry\, Sr\. Data Scientist at Bell Media ​ Most AI agent projects start in the wrong place: with tools and architecture. This talk inverts that approach and shows how reliable agents emerge from well-designed knowledge and context, not bigger models. We'll explore simple patterns for structuring what an agent knows, what it needs right now, and what should persist over time, and why simpler context design often beats complex architectures. ​ **About the Speakers:** ​[Jacintha Kurniawan ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacintha-kurniawan/)is a co-founder and AI Product Manager at Bridge AI Knowledge, where she designs and ships AI agent systems for regulated industries, creative agencies, and retail. Her work focuses on translating ambiguous, high-stakes requirements into production-ready AI in environments where trust, compliance, and adoption are critical. She is a TEDx speaker on the Economy of Trust and hosts The Deep Dive Lab, a podcast featuring 50+ conversations with AI leaders, ethicists, and operators on building pragmatic, responsible AI. ​ Jacintha holds an MBA and brings a cross-functional background spanning AI startups, data analytics at Canadian Tire, and supply chain logistics. Her recent work includes leading an automated conformity platform for a Canadian real estate regulator—processing 500K+ transactions across 200+ agencies while maintaining Law 25 compliance—and developing AI products that measurably reduce operational effort. She recently led product and technical development of Eterna, a voice AI agent for peri- and menopausal health that won first place at a hackathon by prioritizing empathy-driven conversational design. ​[Andrew Berry](https://www.linkedin.com/in/berrya/) is a Senior Data Scientist II at **Bell Canada**, where he works on applied AI and agentic systems across conversational AI, intelligence platforms, and context-aware automation. His work focuses on building reliable, production-ready AI systems and exploring how knowledge, context, and system design shape trustworthy AI behavior in real-world enterprise environments. ​ Andrew is also an experienced podcast host and public speaker, having founded and hosted *The Pandemic Job Hunt* and *The Little Big Ideas Show*. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce from McGill University with a major in Information Systems and a finance concentration, and has completed formal training in data science and product management, bringing a rare blend of technical depth, business context, and communication to his work in AI. ​**Many thanks to our supporters and sponsors!** We'd also like to acknowledge our venue partners, [Highline Beta](https://www.highlinebeta.com/) for generously providing their amazing space for the event, and [PRAKTIKAI ](https://www.praktikai.com/)for making the event happen. ​​ **Speak or Support MLTO!** We are constantly looking for new speakers and sponsors to share their knowledge and help build the AI community in the GTA!

Most Java developers have tried AI-assisted coding through chat interfaces or inline autocomplete. Useful — but limited. In this talk, we’ll explore the next step: agentic Java development using Claude Code. Instead of treating AI as a smarter text box, we’ll look at what changes when the model can reason across files, plan multi-step changes, interact with tools, and operate closer to how real developers work. This will be a practical, experience-driven session focused on: • How agentic coding differs from ChatGPT-style prompting and traditional Copilot usage • Where Claude Code fits (and where it doesn’t) in real Java projects • How tools, context, and workflows matter more than “prompt tricks” • How to avoid unstructured vibe coding while still moving faster No prior experience with agentic tools is required. The goal isn’t to sell a silver bullet — it’s to help Java developers understand what’s genuinely new, what’s hype, and how these tools can be used responsibly in real-world codebases. **About the venue** Free Times Cafe has bistro-style seating and a full food and drink menu. Please consider helping to support the venue by planning to have supper during the talk. **Speaker Bio** Victor Szoltysek is a seasoned consultant and technologist, currently at RAVL, where he helps clients eliminate the inefficiencies of undifferentiated heavy lifting and focus on building solutions that drive real business value for their customers.
