◽Es Devlin na Casa Bradesco◽
**\>\>\>\> INGRESSOS ESGOTADOS\!\!** A exposição “**Sou o Outro do Outro**”, da artista britânica **Es Devlin**, convida o público a atravessar espaços de reflexão sobre identidade, percepção e as relações entre humanos e tecnologia. A artista é conhecida por ter criado **cenografias** para Beyoncé, U2, Bad Bunny, Lady Gaga e Adele. Cada **instalação** funciona como um capítulo de uma narrativa imersiva que investiga como nossa existência se constrói no encontro com o outro: nas pessoas que nos observam, nos interpretam e nos refletem. Ao percorrer a exposição, o visitante atravessa ambientes que combinam **arquitetura, luz, som e espelhos**, criando **experiências sensoriais** que convidam a pensar sobre identidade, presença e as formas como nos percebemos em relação aos demais. **Host:** Helena O.

Talk AGI-risk in multi language Meetup / falar sobre o risco da IA
Talk AGI-risk in multi language Meetup / falar sobre o risco da IA
-Multilingual Open Discussion on the Future of Artificial Intelligence -especially talk about AGI risk -CCSP cafe ### Open Multilingual Discussion on the Future of AI Artificial Intelligence is advancing rapidly. Many experts believe **Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)** — AI that could outperform humans in most intellectual tasks — may emerge within decades, or possibly sooner. This raises important questions: * Could AGI bring major scientific progress and prosperity? * What risks might arise if powerful AI systems are not aligned with human values? * How should society prepare for such transformative technologies? Researchers and organizations such as the Future of Life Institute and the Machine Intelligence Research Institute study these issues under the fields of **AGI risk** and **AI alignment**. Yet these discussions often remain limited to experts. This event aims to **open the conversation to everyone**. *** ## Event Concept **AGI Risk São Paulo** is an informal in-person gathering where people from different backgrounds discuss the future of AI. You do **not** need to be an expert. Participants may include: * Engineers and researchers * Entrepreneurs and students * Artists and philosophers * Curious beginners * Anyone interested in the future of humanity and technology The goal is **dialogue**, not lectures. *** ## Multilingual Discussion To reflect São Paulo’s diversity, discussion may take place in multiple languages: * Portuguese * English * Japanese * Spanish Participants are encouraged to switch languages freely. *** ## Possible Topics * What is AGI and how close are we? * AI safety and alignment * The long-term future of humanity * Governance and regulation of AI * Economic and social impacts of advanced AI No prior knowledge is required — **curiosity is enough**. *** **Location:** São Paulo **Format:** Informal in-person discussion **Languages:** Multilingual **Level:** Beginner friendly If you are curious about the future of AI, **join the conversation.** *** ### Discussão Aberta Multilíngue sobre o Futuro da IA A Inteligência Artificial está avançando rapidamente. Muitos especialistas acreditam que a **AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)** — uma IA capaz de superar humanos na maioria das tarefas intelectuais — pode surgir nas próximas décadas, ou até antes. Isso levanta questões importantes: * A AGI poderá trazer grande progresso científico e prosperidade? * Que riscos podem surgir se sistemas de IA muito poderosos não estiverem alinhados com valores humanos? * Como a sociedade deve se preparar para tecnologias tão transformadoras? Pesquisadores e organizações como a Future of Life Institute e a Machine Intelligence Research Institute estudam essas questões nos campos de **AGI risk** e **alinhamento de IA**. No entanto, essas discussões muitas vezes ficam restritas a especialistas. Este evento quer **abrir essa conversa para todos**. *** ## Conceito do Evento **AGI Risk São Paulo** é um encontro presencial e informal para discutir o futuro da IA. **Não é necessário ser especialista.** São bem-vindos: * Engenheiros e pesquisadores * Empreendedores e estudantes * Artistas e filósofos * Iniciantes curiosos * Qualquer pessoa interessada no futuro da humanidade e da tecnologia O objetivo é **diálogo**, não palestras. *** ## Discussão Multilíngue Para refletir a diversidade de São Paulo, a conversa pode acontecer em vários idiomas: * Português * Inglês * Japonês * Espanhol Os participantes podem alternar idiomas livremente. *** ## Possíveis Temas * O que é AGI e quão perto estamos dela? * Segurança e alinhamento da IA * O futuro de longo prazo da humanidade * Governança e regulação da IA * Impactos econômicos e sociais da IA Não é necessário conhecimento prévio — **basta curiosidade**. *** **Local:** São Paulo **Formato:** Encontro presencial informal **Idiomas:** Multilíngue **Nível:** Aberto para iniciantes Se você tem curiosidade sobre o futuro da IA, **venha participar da conversa.** contact Hiro [https://wa.me/5511982562567](https://wa.me/5511982562567) ( [https://AGI-risk.org](https://AGI-risk.org) ) [mtzhiro@gmail.com](maitlto:mtzhiro@gmail.com)

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? 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

HTML5 Master Series (Class 04 of 04) (SPECIAL OFFERING)
HTML5 Master Series (Class 04 of 04) (SPECIAL OFFERING)
**PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTES:** 1. The dates listed for this series are about 95% reliable. We are completing our 2026 schedule as we speak, so minor adjustments are still occurring. 2. Each class in this series has an attendance fee, though this first offering is free on a first-come, first-served basis. 3. Each class, from BOTH a sign-up and fee perspective, is a separate entity. **Introduction:** HTML5 is the foundational technology for modern web development, serving as the standard markup language for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. Developed through a collaboration between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG), HTML5 provides a robust system of elements (tags) that tell a browser how to display text, images, and multimedia in a clear and meaningful way. It works in concert with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for presentation and JavaScript for interactivity, forming the core technology stack for virtually all websites and many web applications today. One of the significant advancements of HTML5 is the introduction of powerful new features and elements designed to improve functionality and simplify development. Key additions include native multimedia support via the \ and \ tags, allowing developers to embed media without third-party plugins. It also offers new form controls for better user input, such as date and email types, and introduces web storage capabilities to store data offline for enhanced performance. These features streamline the process of building rich, interactive web experiences. A significant focus of HTML5 is enhanced semantics and better structural organization of content. New semantic elements like , , , , and \ provide meaningful structure to documents, which aids in search engine optimization (SEO) and improves accessibility for assistive technologies. These elements define different parts of a webpage (e.g., a header for the top, a nav for navigation links, a footer for the bottom), making the code more readable and understandable for both developers and machines. This emphasis on clear structure helps in creating more logical and maintainable websites. Developing websites in today's competitive environment requires taking advantage of every technique you can to get the maximum exposure possible. Our HTML5 class will not only show you what's new in the HTML specification, but also the best way to develop optimized web pages that get the attention your client and/or company requires. **The breakdown of the four-class series is as follows:** **Class 1: Introduction to Web Structure and Basic HTML5** This class introduces the core concepts of web development, the history of HTML, and the fundamental structure of an HTML5 document. * **Topics**: * **Web Architecture Overview**: How browsers, servers, and web pages interact. * **HTML Fundamentals**: Understanding elements, tags, and attributes. * **Basic Document Structure**: Using !DOCTYPE html, html, head, and body. * **Text Formatting**: Headings (h1 to h6), paragraphs (p), and text-level semantics (e.g., strong, em, br). * **Lists and Links**: Creating ordered (ol) and unordered (ul) lists, and linking between pages using anchor tags (a). * **Activity**: Students create a basic personal webpage containing text, a list of hobbies, and a link to an external website. **Class 2: Semantic HTML5 and Multimedia Integration** Class 2 focuses on modern HTML5 elements that provide meaning (semantics) to content, improving accessibility and search engine optimization. It also covers adding images and multimedia. * **Topics**: * **Semantic Elements**: Understanding and implementing elements like header, footer, nav, section, and article. * **Images**: Adding images using the img tag and attributes like src, alt, width, and height. * **Multimedia**: Embedding audio and video content using the audio and video tags. * **File and Folder Structure**: Best practices for organizing project files and managing file paths. * **Activity**: Students refactor their Class 1 project to use a proper semantic layout and add an image and a link to a video file. **Class 3: Forms and User Input** This session is dedicated to building interactive HTML5 forms, which are essential for capturing user data and input. * **Topics**: * **Form Basics**: Using the form element, action and method attributes. * **Input Types**: Exploring various input types (e.g., text, password, checkbox, radio, date, submit). * **Form Elements**: Utilizing label, textarea, select, option, and button. * **Client-side Validation**: Implementing HTML5 validation attributes like required, minlength, and pattern. * **Activity**: Students build a complete contact form with different input fields, radio buttons, and basic HTML5 validation. **Class 4: Introduction to CSS3 and Basic Styling** The final class introduces Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to style the HTML content and make the web pages visually appealing and accessible. * **Topics**: * **CSS Fundamentals**: The role of CSS, selectors, properties, and values. * **Integrating CSS**: Using inline, internal, and external style sheets. * **The Box Model**: Understanding margin, padding, border, and content for basic layout. * **Basic Styling**: Changing colors, fonts, and text alignment. * **Accessibility Basics**: Identifying principles of web design usability and accessibility, including ARIA labels. * **Activity**: Students apply an external CSS file to their Class 3 form project to style the layout, colors, and fonts, culminating in a well-structured and styled webpage.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.
