We Built an AI Platform Using AI — Here's What We Learned
A small team of AWS Solutions Architects not traditional software engineers, built AIRE Traffic Control (ATC), a production agentic AI platform now serving thousands of builders. We used AI at every stage: spec-driven development, AI-generated code, automated testing, and agentic workflows. In this talk, we'll share the real story, the architecture, the failures, the breakthroughs, and what we learned about driving adoption from 32% to 92% in 10 weeks.
You'll walk away with practical patterns for building multi-agent systems, using AI-DLC methodology, and empowering non-traditional dev teams to ship production-grade applications.
DevCommunity - DC/NY Meetup
**Agenda:**
• 5:00 PM - Doors Open (in-person attendees).
• 5:30 PM - **Deep Dive into Claude Code**
• 6:30 PM - Networking
• 7:00 PM - Doors Close
**Talk Overview:**
**Deep Dive into Claude Code**
Ever wondered what happens under the hood when Claude Code runs your next Android task? This talk dives into the internals of Anthropic's AI coding agent — its bootstrap pipeline and agent loop. You'll see how fork agents share prompt-cache prefixes to cut input token costs and how four-layer context compression keeps long conversations from exhausting the window. You'll leave with a mental model of how this production AI agent actually works. Whether you're building custom MCP integrations, orchestrating multi-agent tasks, or just trying to get more from the tool you use every day, you'll have a toolkit of patterns to apply to your own Android workflows.

DC Crypto at The Point
https://www.thepointdc.com/
This beautiful bar and restaurant with delicious food and awesome happy hour will be the side of our first summer meetup.
It's accessible through Waterfront Metro and Buzzards Point shuttle. Or a 15 minute walk
Our crypto meet up is basically everyone. We are not officially connected with any group or government nothing like that so it's just a very chill place for OG crypto people and new people to have a drink and talk crypto .
It will probably be pretty crowded if the weather is nice but it's a really big bar with a big outdoor deck. I will have a colored candle with me identification purpose identification purposes.
It's a beautiful place where the Anacostia and the Potomac River's meet.
!I hope to see you there!
The End of Human-Scale AppSec
For decades, application security has been built around a simple assumption: humans are the primary producers of software. We train developers, review their pull requests, model threats in design meetings, and build controls around human decision-making. That assumption is rapidly breaking down.
As AI coding assistants evolve into autonomous software agents, organizations will gain access to an effectively unlimited engineering workforce capable of producing software at a speed no human team can match. The pressure to adopt these systems will be driven not by curiosity, but by competition. Companies that successfully harness agentic development will ship faster, iterate faster, and potentially outpace those that do not.
This shift forces a fundamental rethinking of application security. The future of AppSec is not securing developers—it is governing an agentic workforce. Threat modeling, code review, security testing, and change management will not disappear, but they will need to operate at machine speed and increasingly be performed by systems rather than people. In this talk, Ken Johnson, CTO of DryRun Security, explores what the next decade of application security may look like, the assumptions that will no longer hold, and why security professionals must understand these systems deeply if they hope to influence the future rather than react to it.
Inner Safety in an Uncertain World
**Inner Safety in an Uncertain World**
Thursdays, 7:15pm - 8:30pm
In a world that often feels uncertain and overwhelming, we naturally look for something to rely upon — yet so often our sources of security let us down. In this two-week series, we will explore the Kadampa Buddhist practice of refuge, a powerful method for discovering a stable, inner source of protection and peace.
Rather than turning outward, Buddha taught that real refuge is found within our own mind through developing wisdom, compassion, and inner strength. Through practical teachings and guided meditations, you will learn how to rely upon the Three Jewels — Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha — to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. This course is suitable for beginners and experienced meditators alike.
**Class Titles:**
June 11: What Is True Refuge? Finding Safety Within
June 18: Living in Refuge: Bringing Protection into Daily Life
**REGISTRATION**
Standard: $12 \| Financial Hardship: $6 \| Free for [Members](https://meditation-dc.org/membership/)

One way to make it more difficult for them them to impose a digital currency on us is to use cash.
Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)
With Digital Currency they can:
Have a complete government dossier on every detail of your life.
Use your purchase history to maintain a detailed social credit score for every person.
Provide tax breaks to corporations who hire people with admirable social credit scores.
Only grant government contracts to corporations with employees with admirable social credit scores.
Adjust health insurance premiums to incentivize people to develop admirable social credit scores.
Connect your social credit score with a digital ID to encourage you to look at only approved web sites when surfing the internet. Viewing conspiracy web sites could lower your Social Credit Score and make it difficult to get a job.
With their electronic chain around your neck, they can control where, when, how you travel, what food you are allowed to buy etc. They will love the power to only allow you to use your digital money only where they want you to shop and allow you to buy only what they prefer you to buy.
Require you to have to have a license to use your money. They will call it a Digital Currency License.
Require you to take any vaccine they want you to take to maintain your digital currency license.
Tax you in ways we have not even imagined.
Adjust your income tax rate based on your social credit score.
Use AI to increase your income tax rate if you eat too many hamburgers because they will tell you eating too many hamburgers will increase global warming. This is just one example of many behaviors they might not approve of.
Adjust individual prices for different individuals. They will be able to make you pay more per pound for hamburger if you purchased too much red meat during the past 30 days.
Require you to buy so many pounds of soy burger for every pound of hamburger to save the planet and increase the profits for the soy burger manufacturers.
Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be spreading misinformation.
Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be dangerous conspiracy theorists.
Turn off your money at 8 PM if they want a curfew at 8 PM
Turn off your money in another state if they do not want you to drive to another state without permission.
Turn off your money when buying guns or ammo if they do not want you to buy guns or ammo.
Turn off your digital money more than three miles away from your home if they want you to stay within three miles of your home during the next epidemic.
Etc. etc. etc.
From the standpoint of the government, one beauty of digital money is that your money is one “state emergency” away from being the government’s money. All they have to do is to take your digital money out of your Central Bank Digital Account for the “good of all”. It is not as easy for them to do this with physical cash, gold, stocks, or silver etc.
Anything they **can** do, they will do.
The essence of slavery is control. Digital Currency will enable them to make you, their slave.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.
About Speaker: Cameron Williams is a Senior Technical Project Manager and cross-functional technical leader at Booz Allen Hamilton with 15+ years of experience architecting and evolving scalable, cloud-native systems, from greenfield development to complex enterprise modernization. https://www.linkedin.com/in/cameronw711/

Beyond Mythos: A New Operating Model for Code Security
Please see below for this event's description. **Visit our [Eventbrite page](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/owasp-toronto-june-2026-tickets-1991326120030?aff=oddtdtcreator) to RSVP!**
**Hybrid event:**

Doors open at 6:00 PM.
Presentation/livestream starts at 6:30 PM
**Description:**
AI split AppSec into two attack surfaces: your code, and the code factory that produces it—coding agents, the models and MCP tools they call, the developer environment itself. With exploits now landing in under ten hours and vulnerabilities shipping from more authors than ever, this talk lays out a staged path to a "Mythos-ready" program—reprioritizing around reachable risk, accelerating remediation, and securing the AI-SDLC—and argues security should stop filing tickets and start shipping fixes.

Columbus Book Club: The Secret History
**📔 Books and Banter: The Secret History by Donna Tartt • All Readers Welcome**
Come and join us to open up a conversation about this month's pick, The Secret History by Donna Tartt with people who just enjoy a good back-and-forth, and no two nights ever play out the same.
Reading ahead is great but not required, and bring whatever section you're itching to discuss, and bring your scribbled notes — because what you clocked is exactly what someone else sailed past.
Everything's fair game for debate — with the discussion built entirely from what people bring, and the energy tends to build as the evening goes on.
Every night is a fine first night — and the group is an easy one to slot into, all you need is yourself and an opinion, and the night usually ends with people wanting to keep going.
---
**What the session looks like:**
- Arrive, grab a seat, and say hi if you're new — no icebreakers, just talk
- Talk opens on a first question and flows on from there, no set agenda
- Near the end there's a chance to pitch the next read
**What helps:**
- Your copy of the book, paper or screen
- Bookmarks or sticky notes on your favourite bits
- Curiosity and patience for other readings
- Something warm to drink if the mood takes you
⭐ *"Honestly the best hour of my month — the takes were nothing like mine, and that was the whole point"* – regular
💡 **Before you come:** mark the passage you reckon the table will pounce on, since a single flagged scene beats a vague impression, and the group makes it easy from that first line on.
---
🗯️ Come for the book, stay for the discussion — join us and bring your read and the discussion takes it from there. The talk starts when you arrive. 🗯️
Battle of the personal agents
Join the Columbus AI community for a special event.
**Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works.
We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks.
This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations.
Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
