AI Agents and Open Source: Exploring MCP and Beyond
Join us for an evening of insightful discussion and networking as we dive into the world of AI agents and the power of open-source technology.
This event is for developers, data scientists, and tech enthusiasts in the Santa Clara area who are passionate about the future of artificial intelligence.
We'll explore the latest advancements in AI, with a special focus on Model Context Protocols (MCP) and its potential to revolutionize how we interact with technology.
Agentic AI is paramount, with autonomous systems that reason and execute complex tasks, revolutionizing knowledge work. These "agents" function like collaborative human teams in fields from research to software development.
Multimodal AI, which processes text, images, and video, is enabling richer applications and advanced reasoning in science and content creation.
Finally, a push for efficiency is making AI more accessible. Plummeting costs and powerful, smaller models are driving widespread adoption on personal devices, increasing sustainability and democratizing access to advanced AI.
Whether you're looking to share your latest vibe coding project, weekend Cursor push, or tried out Kiro - learn from experts, or simply connect with like-minded professionals, this event is for you.
Come for the knowledge, stay for the pizza and conversation!
