17:40 Meta-Harnessing by Joonas Kykkänen, Wunderdog

Who is better at building the harness: a human or a model? Meta-Harness and Harness^2 present two strategies for delegating harness creation to an agent. Joonas walks through the critical ingredients needed to make these approaches work and puts the two strategies head-to-head in a demo.

*5 min break*

18:15 Harnessing the World Around You by Jarno Silander, Founder of Kinoon.fi and Djust

Every week, someone builds something incredible on a screen. Then you close your laptop, and the world around you still works exactly as it came out of the box. Why do we stop at the screen?

Using his DJ app Djust as a working example, Jarno shares how harnessing devices opens up a whole new creative dimension and leaves you seeing opportunities everywhere. It's time to extend yourself past the screen.

In this session, we'll dive into:

• The DJ booth story: how repurposing devices opened new creative dimensions.
• Software already has arms: there's no real line between the virtual and the physical world, just a mindset shift.
• Everything is data: what you build is only as good as your ability to break things down into data.
• The other half of democratization: models democratize from the top down. Build the bridges from the bottom up.

About the speaker: Jarno Silander is a curious startup founder-operator with 7 years of experience building startups and helping them find PMF.

18:50 What is your agent cooking? By Matias Piipari, Canonical

Agents can be easy to demo and hard to trust: the same prompt can take a different path every run, and a plausible final answer can hide wasted tool calls, silent failures, or lucky guesses.

I shall demo practical agent quality assurance methods using OpenTelemetry-based tracing and quantitative evaluation methods, to turn “works on my machine” into something you can track and optimise across prompt, model, and code changes. How to instrument, and what to measure, to catch regressions?

*5 min break*

19:25 A CEO’s workday in a company where AI does most of the work by Jussi Kajala, 3DBear

Jussi Kajala leads 3DBear, an educational technology company with about ten employees, where the share of work performed by AI has grown from zero to approximately 80 percent. Sales, course production, customer support, finance, and board-related tasks are all managed through a single, shared repository. AI agents read the team’s collective guidelines, log support tickets, draft emails, and push fixes into production—while the humans make the decisions. Jussi illustrates what a typical workday looks like from a CEO’s perspective and explains how his approach to leadership has had to evolve. He discusses how feedback is transformed into rules for the agents, who owns the work performed by an agent, and how to handle situations where parts of the team and the tools they use progress at different paces.

19:30 Mingling / free discussion etc
