Most of us are already using agentic coding in some form: Claude, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or whatever new thing shipped this week. This talk is about the next layer: where the industry is heading as agents take on larger chunks of software work, and what Java developers need to learn to stay ahead. We’ll focus on context management, token strategy, orchestration, Codex-style workflows, cost optimization, and the practical judgment required to use these systems without losing the plot. The goal is to move beyond intro demos and into the real skill stack: knowing what to delegate, how to frame goals, how to keep agents grounded in larger codebases, how to get more value from fewer tokens, how to catch drift before it becomes damage, and how to verify output in a way that actually protects quality. This is also a career talk, because the tools are improving too quickly for casual awareness to be enough. The developers who stay valuable will not just be the ones who “use AI”; they’ll be the ones who can direct, constrain, evaluate, and compound with agentic systems. P.S. Due to popular demand, the slick Keynote animations are coming back. **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.

Please fill out the registration form on Google's RSVP page to express interest in joining the event! Capacity is limited and registration is required.  Welcome to The Data Cloud workshop!  This hands-on workshop delivers the practical skills and architectural patterns needed to bridge the gap between traditional data analytics and the new frontier of Agentic AI. This is not a lecture! You'll spend the day with Google engineers who will guide you through a series of live labs. You’ll build governed pipelines with Spark and Knowledge Catalog, unlock multimodal analytics using GenAI in BigQuery, and scale vectorized search with AlloyDB. Finally, we'll bring these pieces together using BigQuery Graph and ADK (Agent Development Kit) to build agentic workflows powered by your data. Note: To participate, you must bring your own laptop and power cable. The activities require a laptop and cannot be completed on a tablet or phone.    Who Should Attend? Whether you're a Data Analyst, Engineer, or Data Scientist, we welcome all practitioners responsible for building the platforms that power AI. We recommend this workshop for anyone with a strong data foundation who wants to dive deeper into applied AI. What You Will Learn: Master Governed Data Ingestion: Build a unified data layer with BigQuery and Knowledge Catalog across multi-cloud sources. Architect Multimodal Intelligence: Use Gemini in BigQuery to extract insights from unstructured data like images and logs directly in your warehouse. Scale Vector Search: Deploy AlloyDB AI to find anomalies in massive datasets with sub-second latency. Engineer Agentic Workflows: Build autonomous AI agents using the ADK and MCP to move from dashboards to action. Uncover Hidden Relationships: Use BigQuery Graph analytics to map complex networks and find hidden links. Optimize Data Operations: Right-size your environment to cut costs and latency for performant AI apps. Agenda --- Hosted By Solomon Hsu, GDG Organizer I believe in one mandate in the digital space: Crafting Authentic Digital Experiences for All People. With that vision, I value digital accessibility and user centric design as the core foundation for all my projects. It is within the users' insights and needs that allow us to build great apps.

A meetup for talking about the frontier of ai, or just vibe coding if you’re into that. Also industry gossip, hiring trends, effective altruism + predictions for the future

Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/xwjDdVSw3E **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

**Welcome to Service Design Drinks** Service Design Drinks Toronto is back at the pub and this time, we're doing a mid-year check-in.

What shifted? What are you swapping out before the second half of the year disappears? No agenda, no presentations. Just good conversation with a community of designers, strategists, and curious people over drinks, at the Duke of York. Come ready to reflect a little. Leave with some accountability and maybe a new friend or two. **Format: Casual meet & greet** **What to Expect** ✅ Fun Icebreakers – Thoughtfully designed to help you connect effortlessl ✅ Exciting conversations – Enjoy connecting with creative professionals in the city ✅ A Relaxed, Welcoming Atmosphere – Come as you are, leave with new friend 📢 RSVP here so we can plan accordingly.
