The MLAI Meetup is a community for AI researchers and professionals which hosts monthly talks on exciting research. Our format is: * 6:00 - 6:20: Socializing * 6:20 - 6:40: Announcements and AI news * 6:40 - 7:40: Talk(s) and Q&A * 7:40 - 8:00 Networking * 8:00: Head to the nearest pub for dinner **THREE amazing talks tonight:** 1. **Chaehan So: “Deep Listening AI: A Psychologist's Blueprint for Building a Virtual Friend”** 2. **Dushan Karovich-Wynne: “aigogo: Packaging AI Agents for Production”** 3. **Adam "Spidey" Purdie & Rohan Nowell: "Meet ABI AI in the real world"** Talk descriptions and speaker bios: **Adam "Spidey" Purdie & Rohan Nowell: "Meet ABI AI in the real world"** **Synopsis:** Andromeda's purpose is to build technology that strengthens connections and preserves purpose in people’s lives. This purpose shapes what we build and how we build it. The soul of the product matters as much as its capabilities, and our values are encoded through everyday decisions. Abi is our friendly humanoid robot who is built for this purpose. Where she most strongly differs from a LLM chatbot is in embodiment, she shares a physical environment with you. This comes with a whole new range of challenges, she doesn’t just need to know what to say to hold a conversation, she now also needs to control her body language through gestures. Spidey and Rohan will go through the purpose of Andromeda, how Abi is driving this and how we incorporate machine learning into her physical communication. **Speaker Bios:** **Adam Purdie Spidey**, Mad Scientist / Engineering Manager. Spidey regular meetup goer is best known for his ambitions to take over the world with an army of robotic spiders - furiously developing the spiders and other cuddly horrors by night, by day Spidey is an Engineering Manager in charge of customer applications and platform automation (SRE/Dev/Sec/Ops) and physical robotics. My team do awesome things and I give them all the direction, certainty and space to do it. **Rohan Nowell** is a Machine Learning Engineer at Andromeda Robotics with over 10 years of experience in robotic and autonomous systems. His broad expertise spans control systems, mechanical engineering, physics modelling, and autonomy, including work on uncrewed defence vehicles and miniature robots from his PhD at Monash University. He is currently focused on the complex challenges of Human-Robot Interaction, specifically optimizing for 'delightfulness' in embodied AI systems. **Dushan Karovich-Wynne: “aigogo: Packaging AI Agents for Production”** **Synopsis:** aigogo ( https://github.com/aupeachmo/aigogo )is an open-source project exploring what it actually takes to package, ship, and run AI agents in real production environments. In this talk, I’ll walk through how to use aigogo to package and distribute a real agent that does useful work. This talk isn’t about a finished framework, but an open exploration of what it takes to package and run AI agents in real production environments. Using aigogo as a concrete example, we’ll look at the practical tradeoffs that show up once AI systems move beyond experimentation and start behaving like deployable services. The session is designed to be collaborative and discussion-driven, drawing on the experiences of engineers and data scientists in the room. The goal is to surface what matters most in practice and to help shape the roadmap for aigogo and similar open-source efforts going forward. **Speaker Bio:** Dushan is the founder of Subrosa AI (www.subrosa.ai), he is building at the intersection of AI, risk mitigation, and governance, with a focus on making AI systems secure, auditable, and trustworthy in production environments. On top of his companies products which address data leakage and governance challenges as well as production-level AI agents, Dushan builds and maintains open-source projects that help people instrument, understand, sandbox and distribute AI agents. Outside of work, he's a lifelong dog lover who has been known to pull over to talk to dogs. **Chaehan So: “Deep Listening AI: A Psychologist's Blueprint for Building a Virtual Friend”** **Abstract:** What if AI could truly listen—not just respond with generic empathy, but recognize when you're avoiding a difficult topic, stuck in a thinking loop, or seeking validation you won't accept? In this talk, psychological-researcher-turned-AI-startup-founder Chaehan So shares what building Virtual Friend revealed about creating AI for deep emotional conversations. You'll discover why common approaches like fine-tuning and RAG fail for psychological applications—and what actually works. Key takeaways: * Why "respond with empathy" prompts don't work (and what to do instead) * How to engineer psychological awareness into AI conversations * The hidden patterns that unfold across a conversation—revealing what someone can't say directly Whether you're building AI products, interested in mental health tech, or curious about the intersection of psychology and AI, you'll leave with practical insights applicable far beyond chatbots. **Speaker Bio:** Dr. Chaehan So bridges psychology and AI to create technology that genuinely understands people. As founder of Virtual Friend, he's building an AI companion specifically designed to support young adults navigating anxiety, loneliness, and life transitions—combining clinical listening techniques with cutting-edge language models. With a Ph.D. in Social Psychology, Dr. So brings psychological research methodology to AI development. His interdisciplinary background spans social psychology (Humboldt University Berlin), engineering (TU Berlin), and management (ESCP France), with previous experience as Assistant Professor of Information & Interaction Design at Yonsei University, South Korea. His mission: making AI that doesn't just talk to you, but truly listens.

**Find Your (Business) Tribe** *Because no great business is built alone.* They say, *“If you want to go fast, go alone.

Think of it as a curated networking night for entrepreneurs, creatives, and business-minded doers who are looking for more than surface-level connections. Maybe you need a co-founder. A photographer. A mentor. A tech-savvy mate. An accountability partner. Or simply a community of like-minded humans who *get it*. Whatever you’re building, this night is about helping you find your *people*. Your collaborators, supporters, and sounding boards, the ones who help you stay grounded *and* move forward. Expect meaningful conversations, interactive connection activities, and a space where you don’t have to “pitch” yourself, just show up authentically. Because business gets a whole lot better when you’re surrounded by the right energy. So, bring your ideas, your questions, and your dreams. You never know who you’ll meet. **Your ticket will cover a basic beer, wine, spirit or soft drink on arrival.** Remainder of your ticket will be split to cover costs of running FYT and also charity donation to Sisterworks. Tickets are required to attend this event. Please note: This is not an event for selling, for business cards, or recruitment for direct sales or MLM models. This is an event for genuine connections, friendships, collabs, business partners, business networking, when equally reciprocated on both sides!

**Product Talk** exists because in modern SaaS companies, the product isn’t “owned” purely by PMs, it’s shaped by everyone. Engineers, designers, data, growth, product marketing, sales, customer teams, founders, if your work changes what customers experience, you’re in the product business. The goal is to get the whole product mix in one room, learn how other functions are approaching the same problems, and leave with ideas and language you can actually use at work the next day. The format is simple: two talks from operators who've been deep in the work, plus time to meet smart people in the product ecosystem. The goal is signal, what’s changing right now, what trends actually matter, and the tradeoffs teams are making to keep shipping. **This event** AI talk is everywhere right now. This session focuses on real-world applications, workflows, constraints, and outcomes. So yes, Product Talk is doing an AI night too, but with Actual Intelligence, and real operators who’ve built real things. * Two speakers, two different worlds, both with outcomes. **[Jared Korinko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jared-korinko-76b68851/)** ***(Product @ Google, Google Photos)*** *is shipping for 1B+ users, and will share how he built a revenue-generating side hustle purely with AI, the approach, the tools, and the parts that didn’t work as advertised.* ***[Joel Kenyon](https://www.linkedin.com/in/joel-kenyon/) (FMR Head of Product, Amused Group)*** *has led the design and delivery of a wagering platform powering 10 brands, and has embedded GenAI into product workflows to accelerate validation and roadmap intelligence. He’ll talk about what AI looks like when it’s part of a real product organisation, with constraints, compliance, and customers who do not care about your tooling.* *If you’re building SaaS as a PM, designer, engineer or even founder, and you want practical signal over AI noise, this one will be worth your time.* **When:** Wed 18th **Doors:** 17:30 **First speaker:** 18:15 **Wrap:** \~19:30 **Where:** Ippon Technologies office, 8/607 Bourke St. Cnr Bourke and King St's. This is an accessible venue. Enter the building via the Bourke St Entrance and use the lifts to come to Level 8. Call Simon on 0459 59 22 01 if you require assistance or are lost.

Join us for a pizza networking night at Pino Pinelli’s - known for their wood fired pizzas. This will be an inclusive, low key night full of community, and an amazing opportunity to meet new friends. At its core, Girls Who Boss is built on a simple and well-supported idea: *When women have access to strong, intentional support networks, they are better positioned to thrive - professionally, creatively, and personally.* Networks influence far more than career progression. They shape how women access information, perspective, opportunity, and confidence across many areas of life. These connections often become places where we test ideas, refine values, learn from one another’s decisions, and make sense of complex seasons - whether you’re creating a business, chasing your career dreams, or working on personal development, this is the space for you. We can’t wait to see you there.
